Impact of malnutrition on health-related quality of life in persons receiving dialysis: a prospective study (2021)
Journal Article
Viramontes-Hörner, D., Pittman, Z., Selby, N. M., & Taal, M. W. (2022). Impact of malnutrition on health-related quality of life in persons receiving dialysis: a prospective study. British Journal of Nutrition, 127(11), 1647-1655. https://doi.org/10.1017/S000711452100249X

Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is severely impaired in persons receiving dialysis. Malnutrition has been associated with some measures of poor HRQoL in cross-sectional analyses in dialysis populations, but no studies have assessed the impact...

Multiparametric MRI assessment of renal structure and function in acute kidney injury and renal recovery (2021)
Journal Article
Buchanan, C., Mahmoud, H., Cox, E., Noble, R., Prestwich, B., Kasmi, I., …Selby, N. M. (2021). Multiparametric MRI assessment of renal structure and function in acute kidney injury and renal recovery. Clinical Kidney Journal, 14(8), 1969-1976. https://doi.org/10.1093/ckj/sfaa221

Background: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is associated with a marked increase in mortality as well as subsequent chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end stage kidney disease. We performed multiparametric MRI with the aim of identifying potential non-invasi...
