    Abstract: Our previous study demonstrated that patients with end-stage renal disease had decreased structural and functional brain connectivity, and there was a significant association between brain connectivity and cognitive function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the alterations of structural and functional connectivity using graph theoretical analysis in neurologically asymptomatic patients with relatively early-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). We enrolled 18 neurologically asymptomatic patients with early CKD and 28 healthy controls. All the subjects underwent diffusion-tension imaging and resting functional magnetic resonance imaging. We calculated structural and functional connectivity based on diffusion-tension imaging and resting functional magnetic resonance imaging using a graph theoretical analysis. Then, we investigated differences of structural and functional connectivity between the CKD patients and the healthy controls. All the measures of structural connectivity were significantly different between the patients with CKD and healthy controls. The global efficiency, local efficiency, mean clustering coefficient, and small-worldness index were decreased, whereas the characteristic path length was increased in the patients with CKD compared with healthy controls. The structural betweenness centrality of the left calcarine and right posterior cingulum was also significantly different from that in healthy participants. However, all the measures of global functional connectivity in patients with CKD were not different from those in healthy controls. In patients with CKD, the functional betweenness centrality of the right insular cortex, right occipital pole, and right thalamus was significantly different from that in healthy participants. There are significant alterations of the global structural connectivity between the patients with CKD and the healthy subjects, whereas the global functional connectivity of the brain network is preserved. We find that the efficiency of the structural brain network is decreased in the patients with CKD.

    Abstract: This study was conducted to better understand hemodialysis by reviewing the most-cited articles related to it. Methods: We searched articles on the Web of Science and selected the 100 most frequently cited articles. Subsequently, we reviewed these articles and identified their characteristics. Results: The 100 most frequently cited articles were published in 21 journals. The majority of these papers were published in the following journals: Kidney International (26 articles), New England Journal of Medicine (18 articles), Journal of the American Society of Nephrology (14 articles), and the American Journal of Kidney Disease (13 articles). The 100 most-cited articles were published in 25 countries. The United States of America was the country with the highest number of publications (65 articles). The University of Michigan was the institution with the highest number of articles (14 articles). FK Port was the author with the largest number of publications (13 articles). Conclusions: This is the first study in the field of nephrology that provides a list of the 100 most-cited articles on hemodialysis. Through this study, clinicians will be able to recognize major academic interests and research trends in hemodialysis.

    Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) has had a significant impact on our lives and plays many roles in various fields. By analyzing the past 30 years of AI trends in the field of nephrology, using a bibliography, we wanted to know the areas of interest and future direction of AI in research related to the kidney. Methods: Using the Institute for Scientific Information Web of Knowledge database, we searched for articles published from 1990 to 2019 in January 2020 using the keywords AI; deep learning; machine learning; and kidney (or renal). The selected articles were reviewed manually at the points of citation analysis. Results: From 218 related articles, we selected the top fifty with 1188 citations in total. The most-cited article was cited 84 times and the least-cited one was cited 12 times. These articles were published in 40 journals. Expert Systems with Applications (three articles) and Kidney International (three articles) were the most cited journals. Forty articles were published in the 2010s, and seven articles were published in the 2000s. The top-fifty most cited articles originated from 17 countries; the USA contributed 16 articles, followed by Turkey with four articles. The main topics in the top fifty consisted of tumors (11), acute kidney injury (10), dialysis-related (5), kidney-transplant related (4), nephrotoxicity (4), glomerular disease (4), chronic kidney disease (3), polycystic kidney disease (2), kidney stone (2), kidney image (2), renal pathology (2), and glomerular filtration rate measure (1). Conclusions: After 2010, the interest in AI and its achievements increased enormously. To date, AIs have been investigated using data that are relatively easy to access, for example, radiologic images and laboratory results in the fields of tumor and acute kidney injury. In the near future, a deeper and wider range of information, such as genetic and personalized database, will help enrich nephrology fields with AI technology.

    Abstract: Patients undergoing maintenance dialysis have a higher mortality rate associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and response rates to vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 vary from 29.6% to 96.4% in such patients. This study aimed to assess the immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in Korean patients undergoing dialysis. We enrolled 70 SARS-CoV-2-vaccinated patients undergoing dialysis, with 11 healthcare workers serving as healthy control subjects. Thirty-two patients had received a third vaccination, whereas 38 had received 2 vaccinations. The healthy control subjects completed the second vaccination. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies targeting the receptor-binding domain of the S1 subunit of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein were measured The vaccination responder rates were 86% (37/43), 96% (26/27), and 91% (10/11) in the patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis and healthy controls, respectively. IgG antibody levels were significantly higher when a third dose was administered, independent of the type of vaccine or the time interval between vaccination and the subsequent blood sampling date. When a third dose of vaccine was administered, there was no difference in IgG antibody levels between those receiving cross-vaccination or a single vaccine. There was no significant difference in IgG antibodies between healthy controls and patients undergoing dialysis. Patients on dialysis exhibited a sufficient antibody-related response to vaccination against SARS-CoV-2, even in those receiving cross-vaccination, and the antibody titer was higher after a third vaccination. Therefore, it is necessary to administer a third vaccine dose to Korean patients undergoing dialysis.
