Article Synopsis
- The study looked at how hemodialysis (a treatment for kidney disease) affects brain pressure in people with chronic kidney disease.
- It included 42 patients on hemodialysis and 226 others, some with kidney disease and some without, to compare their brain pressure results.
- The findings showed that patients on hemodialysis had better brain pressure conditions, suggesting that this treatment helps improve their overall health and can guide when to start other therapies.
Cetaceans are considered environmental sentinels and their health often reflects either anthropogenic or natural spatio-temporal disturbances. This study investigated the pathological findings and mortality of small cetaceans with the aim of detecting hazards and monitoring health trends in a high-biodiversity area. Between 2007 and 2012, 218 stranded cetaceans were recorded on the Paraná coast, southern Brazil.
