[Hypotension and Generalized Edema Due to Plasma Leakage: A Case Report].

Generalized edema is commonly encountered in everyday clinical practice, usually due to heart, liver and renal disease. On the other hand, edema related to fluid extravasation associated with hypotension, hemoconcentration and hypalbuminemia is a rare clinical disorder. We present a case of a 61-year-old man with 3 subsequent endothelium permeability alteration episodes with increasing severity related to Sars-Cov-2 infection.

A Phenomenological Approach to Financial Toxicity: The-Economic-Side Effect of Cancer.

The economic burden of chronic diseases such as cancer could negatively impact patients' health and quality of life. The daily management of the disease results in economic needs that patients often face directly, which may lead to real toxicity, just defined as financial toxicity. This study aims to explore cancer patients' experiences, emotions, opinions, and feelings related to the phenomenon of financial toxicity.

Sleep Quality and Medication Adherence in Older Adults: A Systematic Review.

Sleep quality significantly impacts individuals' overall health, especially in older adults. Older adults often face comorbid conditions, polypharmacy (the intake of five or more medications per day), and medication non-adherence, which are common among those with sleep disorders. The purpose of this systematic review is to examine the relationship between sleep quality and medication adherence in older adults and to describe the measuring instruments used.

Financial Toxicity in Renal Patients (FINTORE) Study: A Cross-Sectional Italian Study on Financial Burden in Kidney Disease-A Project Protocol.

Financial toxicity (FT) refers to the negative impact of health-care costs on clinical conditions. In general, social determinants of health, especially poverty, socioenvironmental stressors, and psychological factors, are increasingly recognized as important determinants of non-communicable diseases, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), and their consequences. We aim to investigate the prevalence of FT in patients at different stages of CKD treated in our universal health-care system and from pediatric nephrology, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and renal transplantation clinics.
