Piscirickettsiosis causes the highest mortality in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farming, and prophylactic treatment has not provided complete protection to date. In this study, we analyzed the immune and metabolic responses of Atlantic salmon inoculated with live and inactivated Piscirickettsia salmonis, monitoring plasma markers related to immune and stress responses. The fish were inoculated with inactivated P.

- The study focuses on ulnar-basilic fistulas (UBFs) for hemodialysis, which are less common than radiocephalic fistulas due to specific anatomical challenges.
- A retrospective review analyzed 11 UBFs created between 2008 and 2023, finding that while only 3.3% of functional distal AVFs were UBFs, many demonstrated immediate success.
- The results indicated that UBFs are safe and durable options for hemodialysis despite technical difficulties, particularly for patients with multiple health issues.
