Factors associated with post-hospitalization dialysis dependence in ECMO patients who required continuous renal replacement therapy
CONCLUSIONS: AKI requiring CRRT was associated with high mortality in patients receiving ECMO. Nonetheless, most ECMO survivors became dialysis-free before hospital discharge. Variables associated with the need for outpatient dialysis included hyperlipidemia and prolonged need for CRRT during hospitalization.PMID:38655876 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2343810 (Source: Renal Failure)

The prevalence of functional dyspepsia using Rome IV questionnaire among chronic kidney disease patients
Conclusion: The prevalence of FD amongst CKD patients is 14.7% with EPS the predominant subtype. Male patients, HCV patients, patients with higher CKD stages and highly impaired eGFR (low eGFR) are more probable to have FD.PMID:38655865 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2344651 (Source: Renal Failure)

Ruminant model for hemodialysis cannulation
CONCLUSIONS: The stability of AVF patency and flow underscores the viability and potential of the Caprine species animal model as a valuable research platform for exploring interventions aimed at improving vascular access survival in hemodialysis patients.PMID:38659087 | DOI:10.1177/11297298241247085 (Source: The Journal of Vascular Access)

A systematic review of prediction models on arteriovenous fistula: Risk scores and machine learning approaches
CONCLUSION: The performance of existing predictive models for AVF maturation/patency is underreported. They showed satisfactory performance in their own study population. However, there was high risk of bias in methodology used to build some of the models. The reviewed models also lack external validation or had reduced performance in external cohort.PMID:38658814 | DOI:10.1177/11297298241237830 (Source: The Journal of Vascular Access)

Physical activity, exercise habits and health-related quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis patients: a multicenter cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: This study identified a low level of physical activity, light exercise intensity, and walking as the primary exercise type among the participants. A significant correlation was found between higher physical activity levels, regular exercise, and better HRQOL for maintenance hemodialysis patients. It is advisable to implement strategies to enhance physical activity levels and design exercise programs for maintenance hemodialysis patients based on their real-world physical activity levels and exercise habits.PMID:38658480 | DOI:10.1007/s40620-024-01935-6 (Source: Journal of Nephrology)

Successful treatment for life threatening recurrent non-traumatic rectus sheath hematoma in a case with microscopic polyangiitis with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
Intern Med. 2024 Apr 23. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.3239-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 68-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of a rapid progression of renal dysfunction with positive myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody and was diagnosed with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). Severe right rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) bleeding from the inferior epigastric artery developed after starting hemodialysis, which required 4 transarterial embolizations due to recurrent bleeding. After additional treatment with methylprednisolone pulse ther...
