The 2023 updated recommendations have revised clarified definitions classifications of exit site infection tunnel infection. A new target the overall rate should be no more than 0.40 episodes per year at risk. recommendation about topical antibiotic cream or ointment to has been downgraded.

Key Points A multinational survey of health care professionals on the kidney impacts climate change and environmental burden was conducted. Most participants reported knowledge gaps high level concern these interconnected issues. Only a minority report personal or organizational initiatives in environmentally sustainable care; this did not vary by country income level. Background Given threat to significant effect care, calls are increasing for organizations champion advocacy care. Yet,...
Background: Survivors of severe acute kidney injury (AKI) are at risk increased morbidity. There limited data the quality life (QOL) patients having recently suffered from an AKI episode. The purpose this study was to explore health-related QOL survivors when compared living with advanced chronic disease (CKD). Methods: A prospective observational cohort who attended follow-up in a specialized post-AKI clinic stage 4 or 5 CKD followed dedicated nephrology clinic. Self-reported determined...
Background: Natural, technological and other disasters cause significant human suffering, kidney patients are uniquely vulnerable. The safe provision of replacement therapies necessitates the consistent resources. Robust disaster risk reduction management (DRRM) can mitigate risks associated with resource disruption. Individual care programs may benefit from an organized approach to developing context-specific protocols. We aimed synthesize contemporary literature in create a roadmap DRRM....
Monitoring gene expression has been intensively used to identify neurobiological and neuroanatomical substrates associated with administration of antipsychotic drugs. Transcription factors the <i>Nur</i> family (<i>Nurr1</i>, <i>Nur77</i>, <i>Nor</i>-1) are orphan nuclear receptors that have recently dopamine neurotransmission. <i>Nurr1</i> is involved in midbrain neuron development. <i>Nur77</i> <i>Nor</i>-1 expressed dopaminoceptive areas such as striatum, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal...
ABSTRACT Background Worldwide, the uptake of peritoneal dialysis (PD) compared with hemodialysis remains limited. This study assessed organizational structures, availability, accessibility, affordability and quality PD worldwide. Methods cross-sectional relied on data from kidney registries as well survey stakeholders (clinicians, policymakers advocates for people living disease) countries affiliated International Society Nephrology (ISN) July to September 2022. Results Overall, 167...
Climate change impacts health and threatens the stability of care delivery systems, while healthcare is mobilizing to reduce its significant environmental impact.
Home-based dialysis therapies, home hemodialysis (HHD) and peritoneal (PD) are underutilized in many countries significant variation the uptake of exists across centers. This study aimed to evaluate patient- center-level characteristics associated with dialysis.The Australia New Zealand Dialysis Transplant (ANZDATA) Registry was used include incident patients from 1997 2017. Uptake defined as any HHD or PD treatment reported ANZDATA within 6 months initiation. Characteristics were evaluated...
Introduction For many organizations, limited budgets and phased funding restrict the development of digital health tools. This problem is often exacerbated by ever-increasing sophistication technology costs related to programming maintenance. Traditional methods tend be costly inflexible not client centered. The purpose this study analyze use Agile software outcomes a three-phase mHealth program designed help young adult Quebecers quit smoking. Methods In Phase I, literature reviews, focus...
