Cardiovascular and renal health: Preeclampsia as a risk marker
CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of preventive multidisciplinary targeted strategies can help slow down CVD and CKD's natural history in women at risk through lifestyle modifications and adequate blood pressure control. Therefore, we propose a series of recommendations to guide the prediction and prevention of CVD and CKD throughout life of women with a history of PE.PMID:37635012 | DOI:10.1016/j.nefroe.2022.04.009

Zero-contrast imaging for the assessment of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in candidates with renal dysfunction
CONCLUSION: The proposed contrast-free imaging protocol appears to be a promising clinical tool for pre-TAVI evaluation in patients with severe renal dysfunction.PMID:37350345 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2023.2224888

Addition of terlipressin to norepinephrine in septic shock and effect of renal perfusion: a pilot study
CONCLUSIONS: Terlipressin improves renal perfusion, increases stroke volume, and decreases norepinephrine dose and heart rates in patients with septic shock.PMID:35856162 | PMC:PMC9307113 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2022.2095286

Point of care cardiac ultrasound in the management of hyponatremia: an enhancement to physical examination
AbstractAccurate assessment of fluid status is vital to appropriate management of hyponatremia. However, conventional parameters such as physical examination, vital signs, and laboratory markers such as natriuretic peptides suffer from limitations in this regard. Point of care ultrasonography (POCUS) is a noninvasive bedside diagnostic tool that is emerging as an adjunct to physical examination in internal medicine and subspecialties including nephrology. In this manuscript, we describe a complex case of hyponatremia, where stroke volume assessment using Doppler echocardiography has helped to objectively assess fluid statu...

Neonatal stroke and haematuria: Questions
AbstractThis is a report of an infant born near term with neonatal stroke and haematuria. Changes were noted on foetal magnetic resonance images, and these persisted postnatally. A routine renal ultrasound scan during follow-up detected haematuria with no associated proteinuria. A likely pathogenic genetic mutation was identified. This case highlights a relatively newly discovered cause for hereditary nephropathy affecting the basement membrane, initially affecting the glomerular but later the renal tubular basement membranes. The renal phenotype, pathogenic genotype and pathological findings on renal biopsy are discussed.

Neonatal stroke and haematuria: Answers
ConclusionsThis case highlights a relatively newly discovered cause of hereditary nephropathy in which the basement membrane is affected, with initial effects on the glomerular membranes and subsequent effects on the renal tubular basement membranes.
