Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how exercise training impacts depression in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis, noting that depression affects their treatment outcomes and quality of life.
- A systematic review of 22 studies involving 1,059 patients found that intradialytic (during dialysis) and aerobic exercises significantly lowered depression levels, especially when sessions lasted over 60 minutes or were maintained for more than 6 months.
- The findings suggest that regular and prolonged exercise can effectively reduce depressive symptoms in hemodialysis patients, highlighting exercise as a potentially beneficial intervention for improving mental health in this population.
Background: Oxidized lipids are essential bioactive lipid mediators generated during infection that regulate oxidative stress and the inflammatory response, but their signatures in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) are poorly understood. This study analyzed the oxidative lipidomics of plasma from patients with SA-AKI to reveal the underlying biomarkers and pathophysiological mechanisms involved in sepsis.
Materials: A total of 67 patients with SA-AKI and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) participated in this prospective cohort study.
Introduction: The level of physical activity of people undergoing haemodialyses is low, so understanding what factors underlie the motivation to be physically active in people undergoing haemodialyses is important. Therefore, this qualitative study aims to explore the different motivation types and corresponding basic psychological needs (BPNs) of people undergoing haemodialyses based on self-determination theory.
Methods: We adopted the objective sampling method to select 19 patients with the end-stage renal disease aged from 28 to 66 years old from a tertiary hospital in Xi'an.
Recent studies have shown that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) aggravates anxiety in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), but it is still unclear how long this adverse effect will last. This study aims to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on the elevated anxiety symptoms of MHD patients 1 year after the outbreak. Assessment of elevated anxiety symptoms was performed on patients with MHD during early COVID-19 (February 17-February 29, 2020) and 1-year follow-up (March 1-March 13, 2021), and a total of 100 patients had completed face-to-face questionnaires at the first and 1-year follow-up.

Methods: The patients in the control group were treated with gemcitabine bladder instillation, and patients in the study group were treated with the combination of gemcitabine bladder instillation + Xiaozheng decoction. The clinical efficacy, postoperative adverse effects, and recurrence between the two groups were compared.
A graphene/biochar composite (G/BC) was synthesized via slow pyrolysis of graphene (G) pretreated wheat straw, and tested for the sorption characteristics and mechanisms of representative aqueous contaminants (phenanthrene and mercury). Structure and morphology analysis showed that G was coated on the surface of biochar (BC) mainly through π-π interactions, resulting in a larger surface area, more functional groups, greater thermal stability, and higher removal efficiency of phenanthrene and mercury compared to BC. Pseudo second-order model adequately simulated sorption kinetics, and sorption isotherms of phenanthrene and mercury were simulated well by dual-mode and BET models, respectively.
