Article Synopsis
- Renal artery stenosis (RAS) frequently coexists with heart failure (HF) but its effects on acute kidney injury (AKI) and post-hospitalization outcomes were not well understood.
- In a study of 93 HF patients, 29% had RAS, and those with RAS exhibited a higher likelihood of developing AKI during hospitalization, despite similar medication usage for heart failure.
- Patients with RAS experienced more recurrent HF hospitalizations in the two-year follow-up, highlighting the significant impact of RAS on heart failure management and outcomes.
Brain MRI in Status Epilepticus (SE) is often helpful in diagnosis, lateralization and localization of the seizure focus. MRI changes in SE include predominantly ipsilateral diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) changes in the hippocampus and pulvinar or similar changes involving basal ganglia, thalamus, cerebellum, brain stem and external capsule (Chatzikonstantinou et al., 2011 [1]).
