Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious complication of ovulation induction that usually occurs after gonadotropin stimulation, followed by human chorionic gonadotropin administration, for infertility treatment. The existing knowledge about the pathophysiology, risk factors, and primary and secondary methods for the prevention of OHSS is reviewed in this manuscript. The clinical manifestations and characteristics of mild, moderate, severe, and critical forms of the syndrome are defined.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the effectiveness of bicarbonate infusion compared to normal saline and its combination with acetazolamide in preventing contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) during coronary procedures.
- Patients were randomly assigned to receive either normal saline, normal saline with acetazolamide, or bicarbonate before undergoing angiography, with renal function assessed using RIFLE criteria for acute kidney injury (AKI).
- Findings indicate that bicarbonate and acetazolamide significantly lower the AKI risk associated with CIN compared to normal saline, while also highlighting the need for monitoring potassium levels during bicarbonate treatment.
