Contrast-induced acute kidney injury(CI-AKI)is the third leading cause of acute kidney injury deriving from the intravascular administration of contrast media in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and leading to longer in-hospital stay and increased short and long-term mortality.Its pathophysiology,although not well-established,revolves around medullary hypoxia paired with the direct toxicity of the substance to the kidney.Critically ill patients,as well as those with pre-existing renal disease and cardiovascular comorbidities,are more susceptible to CI-AKI.Despite the continuous research in the field of CI-AKI prevention,clinical practice is based mostly on periprocedural hydration.In this review,all the investigated methods of prevention are presented,with an emphasis on the latest evidence regarding the potential of RenalGuard and contrast removal systems for CI-AKI prevention in high-risk individuals. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Viral and bacterial infections may be complicated by rhabdomyolysis,which has a spectrum of clinical presentations ranging from asymptomatic laboratory abnor-malities to life-threatening conditions such as renal failure.Direct viral injury as well as inflammatory responses may cause rhabdomyolysis in the course of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).When presented with acute kidney injury(AKI),rhabdomyolysis may be related to higher morbidity and mortality.AIM To compare rhabdomyolysis-related AKI with other AKIs during COVID-19.METHODS A total of 115 patients with COVID-19 who had AKI were evaluated retrospec-tively.Fifteen patients had a definite diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis(i.e.,creatine kinase levels increased to>5 times the upper normal range with a concomitant increase in transaminases and lactate dehydrogenase).These patients were aged 61.0±19.1 years and their baseline creatinine levels were 0.87±0.13 mg/dL.Patients were treated according to national COVID-19 treatment guidelines.They were compared with patients with COVID-19 who had AKI due to other reasons.RESULTS For patients with rhabdomyolysis,creatinine reached 2.47±1.17 mg/dL during follow-up in hospital.Of these patients,13.3%had AKI upon hospital admission,and 86.4%developed AKI during hospital follow-up.Their peak C-reactive protein reached as high as 253.2±80.6 mg/L and was higher than in patients with AKI due to other reasons(P<0.01).Peak ferritin and procalcitonin levels were also higher for patients with rhabdomyolysis(P=0.02 and P=0.002,respective-ly).The mortality of patients with rhabdomyolysis was calculated as 73.3%,which was higher than in other patients with AKI(18.1%)(P=0.001).CONCLUSION Rhabdomyolysis was present in 13.0%of the patients who had AKI during COVID-19 infection.Rhabdomyolysis-related AKI is more proinflammatory and has a more mortal clinical course. 展开更多

Background: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) stands as a prominent postoperative complication in on-pump cardiac surgery, with repercussions on morbidity, mortality, and hospitalization duration. Current diagnostic criteria relying on serum creatinine levels exhibit a delayed identification of AKI, prompting an exploration of alternative biomarkers. Aims and Objectives: This study is designed to overcome diagnostic constraints and explore the viability of serum Cystatin C as an early predictor of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in individuals undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery. The investigation aims to establish the relationship between serum Cystatin C levels and the onset of AKI in patients subjected to on-pump cardiac surgery. Primary objectives involve the assessment of the diagnostic effectiveness of serum Cystatin C, its comparison with serum creatinine, and the exploration of its potential for the early identification and treatment of AKI. Methodology: Conducted as a single-center study at the cardiac surgery department of BSMMU in Bangladesh from September 2020 to August 2022, a comparative cross-sectional analysis involved 31 participants categorized into No AKI and AKI groups based on Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Data collection encompassed preoperative, post-CBP (cardiopulmonary bypass) conclusion at 2 hours, postoperative day 1, and postoperative day 2 intervals. Statistical analyses included Chi-squared tests, independent Student’s t-tests, and one-sample t-tests. Significance was set at P Results: The study revealed no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the No AKI and AKI groups, except for CPB time and cross-clamp time. Serum Cystatin C levels in the AKI group exhibited statistical significance at various time points, highlighting its potential as an early detector. Conversely, Serum Creatinine levels in the AKI group showed no statistical significance. The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis further supported the efficacy of serum Cystatin C, with an Area under the ROC Curve of 0.864 and a cut-off value of 0.55 (p Conclusion: This study supports the superior utility of serum Cystatin C as an early detector of AKI in on-pump cardiac surgery patients compared to serum creatinine. Its ability to identify AKI several hours earlier may contribute to reduced morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. The findings underscore the significance of exploring novel biomarkers for improved post-cardiac surgery renal function assessment. 展开更多

BACKGROUND:The molecular mechanism of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury(SA-AKI)is unclear.We analyzed co-differentially expressed genes(co-DEGs)to elucidate the underlying mechanism and intervention targets of SA-AKI.METHODS:The microarray datasets GSE65682,GSE30718,and GSE174220 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.We identified the co-DEGs and constructed a gene co-expression network to screen the hub genes.We analyzed immune correlations and disease correlations and performed functional annotation of the hub genes.We also performed single-cell and microenvironment analyses and investigated the enrichment pathways and the main transcription factors.Finally,we conducted a correlation analysis to evaluate the role of the hub genes.RESULTS:Interleukin 32(IL32)was identified as the hub gene in SA-AKI,and the main enriched signaling pathways were associated with hemopoiesis,cellular response to cytokine stimulus,inflammatory response,and regulation of kidney development.Additionally,IL32 was significantly associated with mortality in SA-AKI patients.Monocytes,macrophages,T cells,and NK cells were closely related to IL32 and were involved in the immune microenvironment in SA-AKI patients.IL32 expression increased significantly in the kidney of septic mouse.Toll-like receptor 2(TLR2)was significantly and negatively correlated with IL32.CONCLUSION:IL32 is the key gene involved in SA-AKI and is significantly associated with prognosis.TLR2 and relevant immune cells are closely related to key genes. 展开更多

Background: Serum albumin, a vital plasma protein, helps maintain intravascular colloidal osmotic pressure, cardiac output, and renal function. Low preoperative serum albumin is linked to poor outcomes, including acute kidney injury (AKI), after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery. This study aimed to assess the relationship between preoperative serum albumin levels and early postoperative renal injury. Methods: This prospective comparative cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2019 to February 2021 at the National Heart Foundation Hospital & Research Institute, Bangladesh. It included 160 adult patients with normal preoperative renal function undergoing OPCAB. Patients were divided into two groups: Group A (serum albumin ≥ 4.0 gm/dl) and Group B (serum albumin Results: Preoperative serum albumin was significantly different between groups (Group A: 4.21 ± 0.05 gm/dl, Group B: 3.69 ± 0.04 gm/dl, p = 0.028). Group B had a higher incidence of hypertension (71.25% vs. 51.25%, p st and 3rd postoperative days were higher in Group B (p th day. Postoperative AKI occurred in 18.75% of Group A and 36.25% of Group B. Multivariate regression indicated that low preoperative serum albumin is an independent risk factor for postoperative AKI (p = 0.012, OR = 1.815, CI: 0.675 - 1.162). Conclusion: Preoperative serum albumin level is a valuable predictor of postoperative renal function. Ensuring high normal serum albumin levels before surgery can help minimize the risk of postoperative AKI. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury(AKI)is a common clinical syndrome with high morbidity and mortality rates.The use of pluripotent stem cells holds great promise for the treatment of AKI.Urine-derived stem cells(USCs)are a novel and versatile cell source in cell-based therapy and regenerative medicine that provide advantages of a noninvasive,simple,and low-cost approach and are induced with high multidifferentiation potential.Whether these cells could serve as a potential stem cell source for the treatment of AKI has not been determined.METHODS Stem cell markers with multidifferentiation potential were isolated from human amniotic fluid.AKI severe combined immune deficiency(SCID)mice models were induced by means of an intramuscular injection with glycerol.USCs isolated from human-voided urine were administered via tail veins.The functional changes in the kidney were assessed by the levels of blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine.The histologic changes were evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin staining and transferase dUTP nick-end labeling staining.Meanwhile,we compared the regenerative potential of USCs with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs).RESULTS Treatment with USCs significantly alleviated histological destruction and functional decline.The renal function was rapidly restored after intravenous injection of 5×105 human USCs into SCID mice with glycerol-induced AKI compared with injection of saline.Results from secretion assays conducted in vitro demonstrated that both stem cell varieties released a wide array of cytokines and growth factors.This suggests that a mixture of various mediators closely interacts with their biochemical functions.Two types of stem cells showed enhanced tubular cell prolif-eration and decreased tubular cell apoptosis,although USC treatment was not more effective than MSC treatment.We found that USC therapy significantly improved renal function and histological damage,inhibited inflammation and apoptosis processes in the kidney,and promoted tubular epithelial proliferation.CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated the potential of USCs for the treatment of AKI,representing a new clinical therapeutic strategy. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB)is a common procedure in cardiac surgery.CPB is a high-risk factor for acute kidney injury(AKI),and diabetes is also such a factor.Diabetes can lead to copper overload.It is currently unclear whether AKI after CPB in diabetic patients is related to copper overload.AIM To explore whether the occurrence of CPB-AKI in diabetic patients is associated with cuproptosis.METHODS Blood and urine were collected from clinical diabetic and non-diabetic patients before and after CPB.Levels of copper ion,lactate,glucose,heat shock protein-70(HSP-70),and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase(DLAT)were determined.A diabetic rat model was established and CPB was performed.The rats were assessed for the development of CPB-AKI,and for the association of AKI with cuproptosis by detecting copper levels,iron-sulfur cluster proteins and observation of mitochondrial structure by electron microscopy.RESULTS CPB resulted in elevations of copper,lactate,HSP-70 and DLAT in blood and urine in both diabetic and nondiabetic patients.CPB was associated with pathologic and mitochondrial damage in the kidneys of diabetic rats.Cuproptosis-related proteins also appeared to be significantly reduced.CONCLUSION CPB-AKI is associated with cuproptosis.Diabetes mellitus is an important factor aggravating CPB-AKI and cuproptosis. 展开更多

Objective:The objective of this study was to investigate the alterations and potential implications of the Osteoprotegerin(OPG)/Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor-kappa B Ligand(RANKL)/Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor-kappa B(RANK)signaling pathway factors in a murine model of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury(SA-AKI).This research aimed to offer novel insights into the mechanistic exploration of SA-AKI.Methods:The SA-AKI model group(CLP group)was established through cecal ligation and puncture surgery(CLP),while the control group consisted of sham-operated animals(Sham group)subjected only to laparotomy without cecal ligation and puncture.Blood samples were collected 24 h post-surgery,and murine kidney tissues were harvested upon euthanasia.Serum levels of Serum Creatinine(Scr)and Blood Urea Nitrogen(BUN)were quantified using assay kits.Furthermore,serum levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),and interleukin-1 beta(IL-1β)were assessed through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Renal tissue pathological alterations were examined employing hematoxylin-eosin staining(HE),and the mRNA and protein levels of OPG,RANKL,and RANK in murine kidney tissues were determined via reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and Western blotting.Results:Comparative analysis revealed that,in comparison to the Sham group,the CLP group demonstrated a significant elevation in the levels of Scr,BUN,IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-1β,with statistically significant disparities(all P<0.05).Histopathological examination of the CLP group's kidneys unveiled glomerular congestion,edema,partial ischemic wrinkling,enlargement of interstitial spaces,the presence of necrotic epithelial cells in select renal tubules,tubular luminal dilation,varying degrees of interstitial edema,and infiltration by a limited number of inflammatory cells.In parallel,relative to the Sham group,the CLP group exhibited substantial upregulation in mRNA expression of OPG and RANK in renal tissues,while RANKL mRNA expression experienced marked downregulation,with statistically significant distinctions(all P<0.05).Moreover,in comparison with the Sham group,the CLP group demonstrated an elevation in protein expression of OPG and RANK in kidney tissues,whereas RANKL protein expression displayed significant downregulation,with statistically significant differences(all P<0.05).Conclusion:In a murine sepsis model,augmented expression of OPG and RANK,coupled with diminished RANKL expression,suggests the potential involvement of the OPG/RANKL/RANK signaling pathway in the pathophysiological progression of SA-AKI. 展开更多

Background: Acute kidney injury associated with proteinuria has been reported following vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 several times since 2021. Decisions about subsequent revaccination in these patients have been difficult because of the uncertainty of the consequences of doing so, and the absence of publications to help determine whether revaccination may be considered safe or not. Purpose: We present a case report of a 59-year-old Canadian man who developed severe acute kidney injury associated with moderate proteinuria following his first COVID-19 vaccine with the Moderna vaccine (an mRNA vaccine). He required haemodialysis for 2 weeks, which was initiated when his creatinine reached 1002 μmol/l. A kidney biopsy showed changes consistent with acute tubular necrosis. The patient was cautioned that repeat vaccination might result in further kidney injury which might be irreversible. However, he badly wanted to attempt a second COVID-19 vaccination, to facilitate a family vacation across several countries in Europe, at a time when travel restrictions were in place in many countries for persons who had not completed a course of vaccines. Method: Following deliberations, the patient chose to try a different type of Covid-19 vaccine. On this occasion, he was vaccinated with the Novavax vaccine (a subunit COVID-19 vaccine). Following this, close monitoring of his urine to detect proteinuria and blood testing for acute kidney injury were carried out on days 1, 3, 7, and 60 after vaccination. Furthermore, a year after his repeat vaccination, his kidney function and urinalysis were again assessed. Result and Conclusions: The patient did not develop acute kidney injury or worsening proteinuria following repeat vaccination. It remains unclear if acute kidney injury with proteinuria is caused by Covid-19 vaccination, or simply an incidental association. This case report suggests that it is may be reasonable for patients with acute kidney injury after COVID-19 vaccination to consider trying a different type of vaccine. In situations where a new virulent strain of virus emerges or in patients at risk of severe complication from infection, it may be reasonable to consider revaccination following appropriate counselling with close monitoring of renal function. 展开更多

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of the Zhuang medicine Yingbupu decoction on stage I and II acute kidney injury through sequential test.Methods:The open one-way qualitative response sequential design of experiments was adopted,and the patients with AKI in phase I and II who met the inclusion criteria were divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the order of hospitalization by random number table.On the basis of basic treatment,the treatment group was treated with Zhuang medicine Yingbupu decoction,and the control group was treated with Jinshuibao tablet.The clinical efficacy,TCM syndrome score,24 h urine volume,serum creatinine(Scr),microalbumin in urine(mAlb),neutrophil Gelatinase related lipid delivery albumin(NGAL)of the two groups were compared,and the adverse reactions and complications of the two groups were observed.Results:After 14 d of treatment,when the treatment group reached the 10th case,the experimental line contacted the upper bound U-line and reached the experimental standard to terminate the experiment.The effective hypothesis was accepted,and it was believed that the Zhuang medicine Yingbupu decoction had a therapeutic effect on stage I and II AKI.The conclusion was drawn that the treatment group received the Zhuang medicine Yingbupu.The clinical effective rate and improvement days were similar between the two groups,and there was no significant difference(P>0.05).However,the integral value of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05),After treatment,the Scr,mAlb,and NGAL levels of patients in both groups were lower than before treatment(P<0.05).After treatment,the Scr,mAlb,and NGAL values in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the 24-hour urine volume in both groups was higher than that before treatment,and the values in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).During the treatment period,there were no significant adverse reactions or complications in either group.Conclusion:The Zhuang medicine Yingbupu decoction is effective in treating stage I and II AKI,and the Zhuang medicine Yingbupu can significantly improve the symptoms and quality of life of patients with stage I and II AKI.Its improvement of renal function is better than that of Jinshuibao tablets,and its safety is good. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)are therapeutic agents for advanced and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)with high clinical antitumor efficacy.However,immune-related adverse events occur in 20%of these patients and often requiring treatment with immunosuppressive agents,such as corticosteroids.Consequently,this may increase the risk of patients to opportunistic infections.Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia(PJP),a rare but serious opportunistic infection typically observed in patients with human immunodeficiency virus,can also occur in cancer patients undergoing long-term glucocorticoid treatment.CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a 56-year-old male with squamous NSCLC treated with triplimab combined with paclitaxel,carboplatin,and radical thoracic radiation therapy.Following this regimen,he developed acute kidney injury(AKI)with elevated creatinine levels.After concurrent radical chemoradiotherapy ended,he developed a grade 3 immune-related AKI.High-dose corticosteroids were administered to treat AKI,and renal function gradually recovered.Corticosteroids were reduced to a dose of 10 mg prednisone equivalent daily eight weeks later;however,he developed severe pneumonia with spontaneous pneumothorax.Next-generation sequencing of the bronchoscopic lavage revealed PJP co-infection with herpes simplex virus 1 and cytomegalovirus.The inflammation was more severe in areas exposed to radiation.Piperacillin-tazobactam,acyclovir,sulfamethoxazole,and trimethoprim were used to control the infection.The patient recovered,and immunotherapy was terminated.CONCLUSION PJP is rare but can occur in patients with ICI adverse events and should be differentiated from tumor progression or immune-related adverse events.Thoracic radiation may increase risk,necessitating careful monitoring and prevention. 展开更多

This work comments on an article published in the recent issue of the World Journal of Virology.Rhabdomyolysis is a complex condition with symptoms such as myalgia,changes to urination,and weakness.With the potential for substantial kidney impairment,it has also been shown to be a severe complication of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).To date,various theoretical explanations exist for the development of rhabdomyolysis induced acute kidney injury(RIAKI)in COVID-19 infection,including the accumulation of released striated muscle myoglobin in the urine(myoglobinuria).In their article,they(2024)demonstrate in a retrospective study that RIAKI in COVID-19 patients tended to have elevated levels of C-reactive protein,ferritin,and procalcitonin.These patients also had poorer overall prognoses when compared to COVID-19 patients who have acute kidney injury(AKI)due to other causes.It is clear from these findings that clinicians must closely monitor and assess for the presence of rhabdomyolysis in COVID-19 patients who have developed AKIs.Moreover,additional research is required to further understand the mechanisms behind the development of RIAKI in COVID-19 patients in order to better inform treatment guidelines and protocols. 展开更多

This article delves into the intricate challenges of acute kidney injury(AKI)in cirrhosis,a condition fraught with high morbidity and mortality.The complexities arise from distinguishing between various causes of AKI,particularly hemodynamic AKI,in cirrhotic patients,who experience hemodynamic changes due to portal hypertension.The term"hepatocardiorenal syndrome"is introduced to encapsulate the intricate interplay among the liver,heart,and kidneys.The narrative emphasizes the often-overlooked aspect of cardiac function in AKI assessments in cirrhosis,unveiling the prevalence of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy marked by impaired diastolic function.The conventional empiric approach involving volume expansion and vasopressors for hepatorenal syndrome is critically analyzed,highlighting potential risks and variable patient responses.We advocate for a nuanced algorithm for AKI evaluation in cirrhosis,prominently featuring point-of-care ultrasonography(POCUS).POCUS applications encompass assessing fluid tolerance,detecting venous congestion,and evaluating cardiac function. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury(AKI)due to interstitial nephritis is a known condition primarily attributed to various medications.While medication-induced interstitial nephritis is common,occurrences due to non-pharmacological factors are rare.This report presents a case of severe AKI triggered by intratubular oxalate crystal deposition,leading to interstitial nephritis.The aim is to outline the case and its management,emphasizing the significance of recognizing uncommon causes of interstitial nephritis.CASE SUMMARY A 71-year-old female presented with stroke-like symptoms,including weakness,speech difficulties,and cognitive impairment.Chronic hypertension had been managed with hydrochlorothiazide(HCTZ)for over two decades.Upon admis-sion,severe hypokalemia and AKI were noted,prompting discontinuation of HCTZ and initiation of prednisolone for acute interstitial nephritis.Further investigations,including kidney biopsy,confirmed severe acute interstitial nephritis with oxalate crystal deposits as the underlying cause.Despite treatment,initial renal function showed minimal improvement.However,with prednisolone therapy and supportive measures,her condition gradually improved,high-lighting the importance of comprehensive management.CONCLUSION This case underscores the importance of a thorough diagnostic approach in identifying and addressing uncommon causes of interstitial nephritis.The occurrence of interstitial nephritis due to oxalate crystal deposition,especially without typical risk factors,emphasizes the need for vigilance in clinical practice. 展开更多

Introduction: Data on mortality in acute kidney injury (AKI) derives from high-income countries where AKI is hospital-acquired and occurs in elderly patients with a high burden of cardiovascular disease. In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), AKI is community-acquired occurring in healthy young adults. We aimed to identify predictors of fatal outcomes in patients with AKI in two tertiary hospitals in Cameroon. Methods: Medical records of adults with confirmed AKI, from January 2018 to March 2020 were retrieved. The outcomes of interest were in-hospital deaths and presumed causes of death. We used multiple logistic regressions modeling to identify predictors of death. The study was approved by the ethics boards of both hospitals. Values were considered significant for a p-value of 0.05. Results: We included 285 patient records (37.2% females). The mean (SD) age was 50.1 (19.0) years. Hypertension (n = 97, 34.0%), organ failure (n = 88, 30.9%), and diabetes (n = 60, 21.1%) were the main comorbidities. The majority of patients had community-acquired AKI (78.6%, n = 224), were KDIGO stage 3 (88.8%, n = 253), and needed dialysis (52.6%, n = 150). Up to 16.7% (n = 25) did not receive what was needed. The in-hospital mortality rate was 29.1% (n = 83). Lack of access to dialysis (OR = 27.8;CI: 5.2 - 149.3, p = 0.001), hypotension (OR = 11.8;CI: 1.3 - 24.8;p = 0.001) and ICU admission (OR = 5.7;CI: 1.3 - 24.8, p = 0.001) were predictors of mortality. The presence of co-morbidities or underlying diseases (n = 46, 55%) were the main causes of death. Conclusions: In-hospital AKI mortality is high, as in other low- and middle-income economies. Lack of access to dialysis and the severity of the underlying illness are major predictors of death. 展开更多

Background: Globally, PRAKI is among the leading causes of death in pregnant women. The prevalence, causes and outcome of this condition vary among countries due to differences in environmental, socioeconomic, and health delivery systems. The common causes that have been reported in several studies are PIH, Haemorrhages and Sepsis while the outcomes may be either complete renal recovery, progression to CKD and hence dialysis dependency or death. This study aimed at determining clinical presentation and treatment outcomes of Pregnancy-Related Acute Kidney Injury in Pregnant women admitted at the Benjamin Mkapa Hospital, Dodoma, Tanzania. Results: Out of 4007 pregnant women who were admitted to the maternity ward 51 pregnant women were found to have PRAKI. Of those with PRAKI, 74.5% were between 21 to 25 years. The leading causes of PRAKI were PPH 12 (23.53%), Eclampsia 12 (23.53%), and pre-eclampsia 12 (23.5%). Hemodialysis therapy was provided to 22 (43.1%) patients, 15 (29.4%) individuals recovered spontaneously with medical management and 14 (27.5%) missed haemodialysis therapy due to various reasons. The mortality due to PRAKI was 17 (33.3%). Conclusion and Recommendation: Pre-eclampsia/eclampsia and post-partum haemorrhage were found to be the main causes of PRAKI. The mortality related to PRAKI is high and Hemodialysis therapy is vital help to prevent deaths for pregnant women with PRAKI. Pregnant women who develop acute kidney injury should be followed closely and a nephrologist should be consulted early. Early referral should be done by the lower level facilities for all at-risk pregnant women to a specialized multidisciplinary health facility. 展开更多

Obstructive uropathy is defined as the structural or functional interruption of urinary outflow at any level in the urinary tract.It is regarded as one of the most prevalent causes of acute kidney injury(AKI),accounting for 5%–10%of cases.Acute severe obstruction of the urinary tract is a potentially threatening situation for the kidneys and therefore requires prompt identification and management to relieve obstruction.The aim of the present article is to review and synthesize available evidence on obstructive uropathy,providing a clinical guideline for clinicians.A literature review on obstructive uropathy in the context of AKI was performed,focusing on the least clarified aspects regarding diagnosis and management.Recent literature searching was conducted in English and top-level evidence articles including systematic reviews,metanalyses and large series were prioritized.Acute obstruction of the urinary tract is a diagnostic and therapeutical challenge that may lead to important clinical complications together with direct structural and hemodynamic damage to the kidney.Early recognition of the leading cause and its exact location is essential to ensure prompt urinary drainage together with the most suitable drainage technique selection.A multidisciplinary approach,including urologists,nephrologists,and other medical specialties,is best suited to correctly manage concomitant hemodynamic changes,fluid and electrolyte imbalances,and other related issues.Obstructive uropathy is one of the leading causes of AKI.Recognition of patients suitable for early diversion and feasibility or adequate selection of the indicated technique is sometimes challeng-ing.A thorough understanding of the physiopathology behind the development of urinary obstruction is vital for correct diagnosis and management. 展开更多

Spontaneous Tumor Lysis Syndrome (STLS) is a rare oncologic condition caused by the breakdown of neoplastic tissue in the absence of traditional anti-tumor therapy. It is postulated that cancers with rapidly dividing cells lead to increased cell turnover which exceeds the kidneys’ ability to adequately filtrate by-products of cellular breakdown (i.e., phosphate, potassium, anduric acid), leading to end organ damage. It has been reported in the past that kidney failure is a sequelae of Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS), but there have been no reports that demonstrate acute kidney injury (AKI) preceding TLS. The case presented here demonstrates TLS in a patient with no formal cancer diagnosis, who had received no chemotherapy or radiation that was precipitated by an iatrogenic AKI with chlorthalidone and ibuprofen. This unusual pattern of AKI preceding STLS may provide insight into the pathophysiology of the condition and could possibly lead to greater understanding of this phenomenon. 展开更多
