Background: Undiagnosed and untreated atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) can result in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). To obtain an accurate diagnosis, it is crucial to recognize the symptoms signs suggesting (RAS) perform appropriate diagnostic treatment procedures afterward. Case Presentation: We present a case of 60-year-old female patient with hypertensive crisis, acute heart failure (HF), pulmonary edema as initial injury (AKI) caused by right RAS left occlusion presence...
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive, irreversible impairment of function due to various etiologies. Numerous studies have shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) slow the progression CKD, their pleiotropic effects. Therefore, there has been an increase in interest effects not only on but also other parameters patients with CKD. The aim study was examine SGLT2i serum lipid values and CKD undergoing treatment. Methods: This retrospective data...
An increase in dietary protein intake (DPI) carries a risk with respect to increased sodium intake, which further leads the development of cardiovascular morbidity peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Dialytic (DSR) and urinary removal (USR) are potential indicators intake. In this single-center cross-sectional study 60 prevalent PD patients, we analyze correlation DPI association between residual renal function (RRF) comorbidity grade, expressed as Davies score metabolism indices such...
Introduction. Ovarian carcinoma, being one of the most common gynecologic cancers, has highest mortality rate. The gold standard for treatment patients with advanced ovarian along angiogenesis inhibitors applied in certain stages, is cytoreductive surgery, followed by chemotherapy (CHT). use chemotherapeutic agents hemodialysis (HD) some specificities and limitations, no CHT guidelines exist treating those patients. Case report. We present a 45-year-old female patient end-stage renal disease...
Background and objective: Numerous screenings of chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been performed all over the world. This screening study was undertaken with aim estimating prevalence low glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) microalbuminuria (MAU) and/or proteinuria in a population at risk for CKD to detect factors associated these markers. Materials methods: cross-sectional included 1617 patients without previously known who came regular check-ups their general practitioners 13 Belgrade...
It is well known that patients with uremia, as diabetes mellitus, develop polyneuropathy.The signs of polyneuropathy in diabetic and nondiabetic on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) their relation age, duration dialysis, biochemical parameters, adequacy, health-related quality life (HRQOL) were analyzed the present study.65 CAPD (37 men, age 29-85 years, 3 months to 14 years) divided into two groups: group 1 was comprised 20 (mean 50.1+/-13.2 years); 2 45 62.3+/-9.7 years)....
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis is a systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology, characterized by necrotizing granulomas. It an autoimmune disease affecting small- and medium-sized vessels upper lower respiratory tract, kidneys, other organs. We described case patient otitis media effusion as the first manifestations granulomatosis polyangiitis. A 54-year-old female presented urgent history severe otalgia, hearing loss, vertigo, fever. The was treated diagnosis acute rhinosinusitis, but...
The pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus had a great impact on population of patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). This study demonstrates infection and vaccination in 66 PD their outcomes during 6-month follow-up. is first research that has studied dynamics anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG serum effluent. In our research, 57.6% were vaccinated, predominantly Sinopharm (81.6%), which was also most frequently administered vaccine Republic Serbia at beginning immunization. During monitoring...
Monoclonal Gammopathy of Renal Significance (MGRS) presents a diagnostic challenge due to its varied clinical manifestations.This case presentation emphasizes the importance considering MGRS as differential diagnosis in conditions characterized by worsening renal function and proteinuria, particularly with rapidly progressive course.
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) pose significant risks following organ transplantation, characterized by potential aggressiveness. This report aims to discuss a case of PTLD presenting as B-cell large cell lymphoma (DLBCL) post-kidney and pancreas transplantation. A 44-year-old female with type 1 diabetes underwent kidney She presented fever, night sweats, weakness, revealing multiple lesions on CT, including in transplanted native kidneys, lung. Biopsy transplant...
The occurrence of anterior abdominal wall ulcer at the site peritoneal catheter (PC) is one rarest complications dialysis (PD). When present, it mainly caused by staphylococci which respond well to vancomycin therapy. Despite well-conducted therapy, there a tendency relapse and induce peritonitis, makes necessary remove PC change model treatment and/or re-insert another place preserve PD as method. In present study, we discuss case 53-year-old patient with end-stage kidney disease treated...
To prevent organ rejection, renal transplant (RT) recipients must take immunosuppressive medicines, which make them more susceptible to infections such as tuberculosis (TB). Hepatotoxicity, can vary from asymptomatic increased liver enzymes severe failure, is the most prevalent side effect of first-line antituberculosis (AT) drugs. Treating TB in RT patients involves unique concerns since AT medications might interact with medications, potentially reducing efficacy or increasing toxicity. A...
Increased peritoneal protein loss has been associated with the fast transport of small molecules, diabetes mellitus (DM), and a reduced survival in patients on dialysis (PD), although some studies did not confirm association survival. In this single-center retrospective study, we investigated relationship baseline albumin status, comorbidities including DM, 106 incident PD during period July 2005-June 2014. Five-year rate was determined using Cox-regression analysis. There were significant...
In previous publications, we pointed out the importance of mannosylation fibrinogen for development cardiovascular complications and fucosylation as a predictor peritoneal membrane dysfunction in patients on dialysis (PD). After follow-up period 30 months from onset COVID-19 pandemic, evaluated significance 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol) therapy, primary disease, biochemical hematologic analyzes, previously performed glycan analysis by lectin-based microarray predictors mortality this...
One of the criteria for chronic kidney disease detection is determination microalbuminuria.This analysis was performed to evaluate accuracy three useful methods microalbuminuria in 24h urine collection and morning specimen calculated from albumin creatinine ratio, or with a dipstick patients different diseases function.Microalbuminuria detected 74 referred Outpatient Nephrology Department function regular nephrology checking. Albumin concentration determined using immunonephelometry lower...
Introduction. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is effective in reducing blood pressure. Mean arterial pressure falls within 6 months of starting CAPD the majority patients. This improved control reflects removal excess fluid volume and body sodium. However, after several years, there a decline efficacy controlling High incidence hypertension long-term patients may be related to hypervolemia as consequence loss residual renal function (RRF), ultrafiltration (UF) due functional...
Background/Aim. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern associated with increased cardio-vascular risks and premature mortality. Proteinuria key prognostic indicator for CKD outcome. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors show potential reducing proteinuria slowing progression. The aim of the study was to determine impact SGLT2 inhibitor therapy on patients by evaluating changes in level serum creatinine (sCr), 24-hour (24h) urine protein (UP), estimated glomerular...
Introduction. Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious complication of deep venous thrombosis, with significant morbidity and mortality. More often, PE complicates the course nephrotic syndrome (NS), in particular when disease active, but it may occur as first sign illness diagnosis NS being delayed result. Membranous nephropathy is, generally speaking, most commonly reported glomerulonephritis associated increased risk thrombosis. Case outline. This report summarizes our experience three young...
