Acute renal failure in critically ill patients is a growing clinical problem. Options for renal replacement therapy in these patients use convective and diffusive clearance and may be intermittent, as in classic hemodialysis, or continuous. New ways of delivering dialysis in the intensive care unit, such as sustained low-efficiency dialysis, are also under development. It may be that renal replacement therapy needs to be tailored to the needs of each individual patient. Current and future research studies should provide the answers to many of these questions.

Predictors of Mortality among End-Stage Renal Disease Patients with COVID-19 Admitted in a Philippine Tertiary Government Hospital: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Acta Med Philipp
December 2024
Naga City, Camarines Sur, Philippines.
Background And Objective: Several studies have examined the predictors of mortality among COVID-19-infected patients; however, to date, few published studies focused on end-stage renal disease patients. The present study, therefore, aims to determine the predictors of in-hospital mortality among end-stage renal disease patients with COVID-19 admitted to a Philippine tertiary hospital.
Methods: The researcher utilized a retrospective cohort design.
Early versus late nephrology referral and patient outcomes in chronic kidney disease: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMC Nephrol
January 2025
Renal Division, Peking University First Hospital, Beijing, 100034, China.
Background: Nephrology referral has been recognized as a modifiable factor influencing patient outcomes. The study aimed to compare clinical outcomes among patients referred early versus late to nephrologists.
Methods: We searched online database from inception to June 1, 2022, to obtain all eligible literature reporting outcomes of patients referred early versus late to nephrologists.
Catheter replacement combined with antiplatelet therapy in hemodialysis catheter-related right atrial thrombus: a potential treatment approach.
BMC Cardiovasc Disord

General Practice Ward/International Medical Center Ward, General Practice Medical Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University/West China School of Nursing, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.
Background: Catheter-related right atrial thrombus (CRAT) is a severe complication in hemodialysis patients that can lead to catheter dysfunction and pulmonary embolism (PE). However, no standardized treatment strategy currently exists for hemodialysis-related CRAT. This study aims to investigate the efficacy of catheter replacement and antiplatelet therapy in managing hemodialysis CRAT.

Department of Critical Care Medicine, Shanghai East Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai, 200120, China. Electronic address:
Background: Disorders of the coagulation pathway are triggered in patients with severe burn and inhalation injuries in the early stages. There are multiple early coagulation indices identified to correlate with adverse outcomes.
Method: A retrospective analysis of patients with severe burn and inhalation injuries from 12 centers in mainland China was performed to identify early changed coagulation indices with predictive value associated with four major 28-day adverse outcomes (death, anticoagulation, mechanical ventilation, continuous renal replacement therapy) by logistic regression.
Energy Expenditure in Chronic Kidney Disease: Affecting Factors and Evaluation Methods.
Nutr Rev
January 2025
Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nutrition and Dietetics, Gazi University, Ankara 06495, Türkiye.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a chronic health problem whose prevalence is increasing. Nutrition and nutrition-related factors, one of the modifiable risk factors for CKD, are of primary importance. The key to planning optimal nutritional therapy is accurately determining energy requirements and total energy expenditure.
