Contrast-induced nephropathy: A dilemma between loss of neurons or nephrons in the setting of endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Contrast-induced nephropathy is a relatively common complication after endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke and is associated with worse outcome in patients with this condition. However, there is no increase in the frequency of hemodialysis after the use of iodinated contrast medium. PMID: 31645156 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Assessment of right ventricular dysfunction in end-stage renal disease patients on maintenance haemodialysis by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging
Conclusions In ESRD patients on maintenance HD, RV function was impaired and associated with the deterioration of LV function. More importantly, the duration of dialysis was considered as a risk factor independently associated with RV dysfunction.
