Aims: The study aimed to show whether non-sucrose-containing intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) administration affected urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) levels within 24 hours and the uNGAL elevations preceded development of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods: included 20 patients who received IVIG treatment in Internal Medicine Neurology clinics between January 2022 September 10 controls (2:1 ratio) with similar age, gender, comorbidity did not receive IVIG. were...

Hyponatremia and its rapid correction may cause osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) with damage to the pontine extrapontine areas of brain. The become persistent or regress disappear during follow-up. We describe case a 35-year-old woman chronic renal failure who was admitted emergency department profound hyponatremia which corrected rapidly after hemodialysis treatment. During follow-up, she developed quadriparesis dysartria. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated abnormalities...

Sepsis is a common cause of acute renal failure in intensive care units (ICU) with mortality rates as high 60%. In this study, the clinical and laboratory predictors kidney injury (AKI) critically ill Turkish patients sepsis/systemic inflammatory response syndrome were identified. We studied 139 (67 females/72 males) admitted to our ICUs without failure. The parameters treatments recorded. Patients classified those AKI (n = 60; 43.20%) 79; 56.80%) based on RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss,...

Abstract Introduction. Anemia is a complication of chronic renal failure observed in patients on hemodialysis (HD) affecting morbidity and mortality these patients. It associated with erythropoietin (EPO) deficiency can be treated by human recombinant (hrEPO). Iron has been reported as the first line cause for inadequate response to this treatment. Zinc was previously relationship between iron zinc deficiencies known years. The aim study find out serum level, anemia rhEPO consuming HD...
