Chronic Kidney Disease II: Clinical Manifestations

890
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) progressively impairs multiple body systems due to the accumulation of uremic toxins, which disrupt cellular functions across various organs.Neurologic symptomsNeurologic symptoms often arise early in CKD, as uremic toxin buildup drives changes in cognitive and motor functions. Patients frequently experience fatigue, headache, confusion, difficulty concentrating, and, in severe cases, seizures. Peripheral neuropathy commonly manifests as burning sensations in the...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

727
Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...

Nephrotic Syndrome II : Assessment and Medical Management

295
IntroductionNephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder marked by excessive protein loss in the urine, leading to various systemic complications. This condition often results from damage to the glomeruli—the kidney's filtering units—causing proteinuria, low blood protein levels, and fluid retention. Understanding the assessment, diagnosis, and management of nephrotic syndrome is essential for effective treatment and prevention of further kidney damage.AssessmentPatient History: Document...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Vascular Medicine
  • Nephrology

Background:

  • Calciphylaxis is a severe vascular disease affecting small vessels, characterized by high morbidity and mortality.
  • Limited published data exists, particularly from Spanish hospitals.
  • Understanding patient profiles and risk factors is crucial for improved management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the demographic, clinical, and histological profile of calciphylaxis patients.
  • To identify risk factors associated with calciphylaxis.
  • To explore potential therapeutic strategies for calciphylaxis.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study design.
  • Inclusion of patients diagnosed with calciphylaxis and confirmed by biopsy.
  • Data collected from January 2010 to August 2015.

Main Results:

  • Nine patients were studied, aged 76-86 years.
  • All patients presented with cardiovascular comorbidities.
  • Renal failure was present in 67% of patients, with an observed mortality rate of 33%.

Conclusions:

  • Complete blood analysis is essential for differential diagnosis of skin ulcers.
  • Multidisciplinary team management is recommended for calciphylaxis patients.
  • Sodium thiosulfate shows promise as a therapeutic agent for calciphylaxis.
