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.

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.

Electrolyte disturbances and risk factors of acute kidney injury patients receiving dialysis in exertional heat stroke
Exertional heat stroke (EHS) is a life-threatening illness and leads to multi-organ dysfunction including acute kidney injury (AKI). The clinical significance of abnormal electrolytes and renal outcomes in ESH...

Effects of parathyroid hormone and vitamin D supplementation on stroke among patients receiving peritoneal dialysis
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients have a high incidence of stroke and commonly have increased parathyroid hormone levels and vitamin D insufficiency. We seek to investigate the incidenc...

Ischemic stroke and purpuric dermatitis as COVID-19-related complications in a peritoneal dialysis patient
AbstractPatients on dialysis may have an elevated risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and its complications due to their high prevalence of comorbidities. Here we describe the case of an 80-year-old male undergoing peritoneal dialysis with a moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection who developed a purpuric dermatitis and ischemic stroke after successful recovery from his bilateral pneumonia. Erythemato-papular lesions affecting trunk and lower limbs appeared 17  days after the onset of SARS-CoV-2 symptoms. These kind of lesions are an infrequent cutaneous manifestation of COVID-19. The pathology revealed a moderate pu...

Hypertension - human studies
Conclusions:Higher predialysis SBP variability is associated with stroke on HD populations suggesting a potential role for cerebral perfusion instability. We confirm known associations between age, diabetes, pre-existent cerebrovascular disease and hypertension. In contrast to studies in non-dialysis patients we do not find an association between EPO dose and stroke. Interventional trials of blood pressure management on stroke are recommended.

Progeria syndrome in CKD/ESRD
Conclusions: Renal impairment independently associates with greater stroke disability at presentation and worse functional outcomes despite modern stroke care. Nonetheless these patients are also less likely to be thrombolysed for acute ischaemic stroke, which suggests a possible inequity in access to healthcare that requires urgent study.

New aspects of cerebrovascular diseases in dialysis patients.
Authors: Naganuma T, Takemoto Y Abstract Growing evidence suggests that chronic kidney disease is a significant risk factor for stroke, subclinical cerebrovascular abnormalities, and cognitive impairment, independent of known cardiovascular risk factors. Cerebrovascular disease is also a major cause of death in dialysis patients, who have a much higher incidence of stroke compared to the normal population. Strokes in dialysis patients are also characterized by a higher incidence of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage compared with those in the general population. Recent studies on dialysis cohorts have shown that...

Valvular calcification upon initiating dialysis predict the appearance of cardiovascular events in patient evolution.
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of VC at the commencement of dialysis is very high and its presence is an independent predictor of event and cardiovascular mortality presentation in the course of follow-up. PMID: 26300509 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Atrial fibrillation and associated outcomes in patients with peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis: a 14-year nationwide population-based study.
CONCLUSION: In patients with ESRD undergoing dialysis, PD had lowered risks of new onset of AF compared to HD. Subsequently, these AF patients in PD group had comparable incidence of ischemic stroke but decreased incidence of hemorrhagic stroke compared to AF patients in HD group. PD could be the most suitable modality in patients at risk for the onset of AF. PMID: 32086785 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Renal physiology and kidney stones
Conclusions: The occurrence of a kidney stone is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events including AMI, death due to CHD,PTCA/CABG and stroke. These data suggest that people with a clinically recognized kidney stone should be followed more closely to evaluate for the possibility of subsequent cardiovascular events -- younger people and women.

Apixaban versus No Anticoagulation in Patients Undergoing Long-Term Dialysis with Incident Atrial Fibrillation.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with kidney failure and nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, treatment with apixaban was not associated with a lower incidence of new stroke, transient ischemic attack, or systemic thromboembolism but was associated with a higher incidence of fatal or intracranial bleeding.
