Transplant glomerulopathy: clinico-pathologic features
Silva, C; Cotovio, P; Marques, M; Afonso, N; Sancho, MR; Carvalho, F; Trindade, H; Carreira, A; Campos, M; Nolasco, FTransplant glomerulopathy is a sign of chronic kidney allograft damage. It has a distinct morphology and is associated with poor allograft survival. We aimed to assess the prevalence and clinic-pathologic features of transplant glomerulopathy, as well as determine the functional and histological implications of its severity. We performed a single-centre retrospective observational study during an eight-year per...

Prognostic Factors in Adult Patients with Idiopathic IgA Nephropathy
Silva, C; Afonso, N; Cotovio, P; Marques, M; Carvalho, F; Carreira, AIntroduction. IgA nephropathy is the dominant primary glomerular disease found throughout the majority of the world’s developed countries. Accurately identifying patients who are at risk of progressive disease is challenging. We aimed to characterise clinical and histological features that predict poor prognosis in adults. Patients and Methods. We performed a single-centre retrospective observational study of b...
Peritoneal dialysis in diabetics: there is room for more
Cotovio, P.; Rocha, A.; Rodrigues, A:Abstract End stage renal disease diabetic patients suffer from worse clinical outcomes under dialysis-independently of modality. Peritoneal dialysis offers them the advantages of home therapy while sparing their frail vascular capital and preserving residual renal function. Other benefits and potential risks deserve discussion. Predialysis intervention with early nephrology referral, patient education, and mult...
Banco de tumores: Imperativo na medicina
Carvalho, L; Bernardo, MT; Tavares, M; Cotovio, P; Mação, P; Oliveira, CFA tumour bank is a consequence of the modern medicine to follow the knowledge of bio-pathology of pre-neoplastic and neoplastic diseases in order to define diagnostic criteria and accurate therapy. It can be an independent unit but it should depend on a real or virtual net in the country or in connection between different states. The informed agreement of the patient and law are integrally followed according wi...
