Impact of thrice-weekly cotrimoxazole prophylaxis on creatinine and potassium plasma levels in kidney transplant recipients
CONCLUSIONS: Our study pinpoints the impact of CTX 800/160 thrice-weekly on creatinine and potassium levels in kidney transplant recipients. This should be considered when interpreting the evolution of plasma creatinine over time, especially in patients with graft dysfunction. Thus, creatinine levels of cohorts with 6 months versus lifelong CTX require different interpretations.PMID:37715935 | DOI:10.1007/s40620-023-01773-y

Electrolytes Play a Role in Detecting Cisplatin-Induced Kidney Complications and May Even Prevent Them-Retrospective Analysis
Conclusions: We report that an average of 15% of patients with electrolyte abnormalities develop renal toxicity and reduced function. Moreover, electrolytes may serve as an early indicator for renal damage as part of chemotherapy complication. This indication represents 15% of renal toxicity cases. Changes in electrolyte levels have been reported with cisplatin. Specifically, it has been linked to hypomagnesemia, hypocalcemia and hypokalemia. This study will help reduce the risk of dialysis or the need for kidney transplant. It is also important to manage any underlying conditions and control patients' intake of electrolyt...

Discontinuation of Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Inhibitors Secondary to Hyperkalemia Translates into higher Cardiorenal Outcomes
CONCLUSION: RAASi discontinuation after hyperkalemia was associated with worsened mortality, which may underscore the benefits of continuing RAASi among patients with CKD.PMID:37231821 | DOI:10.1159/000531102

Outcomes and Predictors of In-hospital Mortality in Critically Ill Acute Kidney Injury Patients: A Tertiary Care Center Experience
Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl. 2021 Nov-Dec;32(6):1736-1743. doi: 10.4103/1319-2442.352436.ABSTRACTAcute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with high mortality and morbidity risk. Factors predictive of mortality can guide in early identification of high-risk patients and escalation of therapy to improve outcomes. There is a paucity of data on AKI in Pakistan, and this study was done to determine in-hospital AKI mortality and the associated predictors of mortality. This was a prospective observational study conducted in the Acute Medical Unit and High Dependency Unit of Pak Emirates Military Hospital, Rawalpindi, from June to D...

Determination of Serum Perfluorooctanoic Acid and Perfluorooctanesulfonic Acid Levels with Different Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease
Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl. 2021 Nov-Dec;32(6):1664-1670. doi: 10.4103/1319-2442.352427.ABSTRACTThe aim of this study is to investigate the perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) levels in patients with different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sixty-one CKD stage 1-4 patients who applied to the nephrology outpatient clinic were recruited. A control group consisting of 26 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were also included in the study. Concentrations of PFOA and PFOS were determined by comparing their peak areas with their standard curves. All samples were analyzed three times. ...
