Intravascular Imaging-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease on Maintenance Dialysis.

JACC Asia

January 2025

Division of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, College of Medicine, Chang Gung University, Taoyuan, Taiwan.

Background: Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are at a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Intravascular imaging (IVI)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using optical coherence tomography (OCT) or intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has been shown to result in better clinical outcomes than angiography guidance. Nevertheless, the clinical outcomes of IVI-guided PCI in ESRD patients remain uncertain.

Preexisting hemodialysis and survival outcome in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients: Ulsan, South Korea.

Front Med (Lausanne)

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, College of Medicine, Dong-A University Hospital, Dong-A University, Busan, Republic of Korea.

Background: Although the incidence of sudden cardiac death is higher in hemodialysis (HD) patients, whether out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival outcomes are poorer in this group remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the impact of HD on survival outcomes among adult nontraumatic OHCA patients and to compare these outcomes between HD and non-HD groups.

Methods: This observational cohort study retrospectively analyzed data from adult nontraumatic OHCA patients in Ulsan, South Korea, from January 2017 through December 2022.

Rationale & Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with diabetes does not always equate to diabetic kidney disease (DKD). This study aims to delineate and compare the clinical characteristics, survival rates, and access to kidney transplantation among patients with type 2 diabetes commencing dialysis, who were classified by kidney biopsy as having either DKD or non-diabetic kidney disease (non-DKD).

Study Design: We used the comprehensive French Renal Epidemiology and Information Network registry to analyze baseline clinical characteristics at dialysis inception and outcomes defined as death and access to kidney transplantation.

Background: In an Italian cohort of lupus podocytopathy patients, we aimed to characterize the presenting features, therapy, and outcomes, and explore differences between relapsing and non-relapsing patients.

Methods: We identified 29 patients with lupus podocytopathy from 1994 to 2023 in 11 Italian Nephrology/Rheumatology Units, and divided them into two groups: relapsing and non-relapsing. Given the limited sample size, a p-value ≤ 0.
