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]

Increased risk of mortality among haemodialysis patients with or without prior stroke: A nationwide population-based study in Taiwan.
Abstract Background & objectives: Patients with prior stroke (PS) undergoing chronic dialysis are at a high risk of mortality. However, little is known about the cumulative risk and survival rate of dialysis patients with long-term follow up. The aim of this study was to assess risks for mortality between patients with and without PS undergoing chronic haemodialysis (HD). Methods: The Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHRI-NHIRD-99182) was used and all adult patients (≥18 yr) with end stage renal disease (ESRD) who started maintenance HD between January 1, 1999, and December 31, 1999, were ...

Difference in stroke incidence between Korean and Japanese patients initiating dialysis — era or ethnic effect?
We thank Tomoyuki Kawada for the letter in response to our recent article [1]. First, we would like to focus on the differences in epidemiologic characteristics of stroke between our study population and those enrolled in a previous study conducted in Japan [2]. As indicated, the main difference in the findings between the two studies was that the proportion of hemorrhagic stroke among the total stroke events was substantially higher in the Japanese study than in our study (52% vs. 21%). Although the definite reasons for this difference remain uncertain, adding to the possible association kindly suggested by Kawada, some s...

Cardiovascular and Stroke Risk in Japanese Hemodialysis Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Abstract Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common arrhythmias in hemodialysis patients. We evaluated its clinical outcomes among hemodialysis patients with atrial fibrillation in Japan. Using data derived from the Japanese Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study, we analyzed backgrounds and outcomes among hemodialysis patients with and without atrial fibrillation in Japan. Among 7002 hemodialysis patients, the prevalence of atrial fibrillation was 5.7% and the incidence was 0.2 per 100 patient‐years. Atrial fibrillation was independently associated with all‐cause mortality (hazard ratio, 1.32; 95% confidence...

ESRD After Heart Failure, Myocardial Infarction, or Stroke in Type  2 Diabetic Patients With CKD
Conclusions Most ESRD cases occurred in individuals without intercurrent CV events who had lower eGFRs than individuals with intercurrent CV events, but similar post-ESRD mortality. Nevertheless, intercurrent CV events, particularly heart failure, are strongly associated with risk for ESRD. These findings underscore the need for kidney-specific therapies in addition to treatment of CV risk factors to lower ESRD incidence in diabetes.

Prognostic factors for acute ischemic stroke in patients undergoing hemodialysis
ConclusionsAlong with neurological severity, dialysis vintage, intradialytic hypotension, and diabetic nephropathy could worsen the prognosis of patients with AIS undergoing hemodialysis.

Response to the Letter by Tariq
We stated in our discussion section that “A previous study16 reported 35% mortality within 30 days of IV rt-PA treatment in dialysis dependent renal failure patients.” The mention of IV rt-PA in these patients is a mistake on our part. The 35% mortality within 30 days reported by Sozio et al was reported for all stroke subtypes including hemorrhagic strokes. The following study does not mention if IV rt-PA was administered or not in these patients.

Nontraumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Maintenance Dialysis Hospitalizations: Trends and Outcomes Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— SAH hospitalizations are more common and associated with higher mortality in patients on maintenance dialysis than in the general population. Although being on maintenance dialysis is an independent predictor for mortality in patients with SAH, other predictors of mortality evaluated in this study are not necessarily different between the 2 groups.

Association of blood pressure with all‐cause mortality and stroke in Japanese hemodialysis patients: The Japan dialysis outcomes and practice pattern study
Abstract The association of low blood pressure (BP) with high mortality is a characteristic for hemodialysis patients. This analysis clarifies the association of BP with mortality and stroke in Japanese hemodialysis (HD) patients and examines the association separately for patients with and without antihypertensive medication (BP meds). We analyzed 9134 patients from Japan in phases 1–4 (1999–2011) of the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS), a prospective cohort study of in‐center HD patients. The association of patient systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure with all‐cause and cause‐s...

Anticoagulation therapy: Balancing the risks of stroke and bleeding in CKD
Nature Reviews Nephrology 11, 200 (2015). doi:10.1038/nrneph.2015.14 Authors: Arman Qamar & Deepak L. Bhatt Whether anticoagulation with warfarin is safe and reduces risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease is unclear. A recent observational study shows a net clinical benefit of warfarin—without increased risk of bleeding—in this population, including in patients on dialysis.
