This is the report of an 11-year-old boy with chronic renal disease and secondary hyperparathyroidism. The child had been on dialysis, calcitriol, calcium carbonate, and presented dyslipidemia and calcified thrombi in various vessels and organs in the course of his condition. Pathological examination showed ischemic cerebral necrosis, calcification in coronary arteries, and myocardial infarction.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined the impact of different autonomous dialysis methods on patients' lives in France, focusing on work, social activities, and quality of life.
- About 33% of the participants held paid jobs, with varying levels of physical activity reported, while most patients experienced minimal issues with mobility, self-care, and overall health status.
- The findings indicate that while dialysis significantly influences professional and social aspects of life, differences between the various dialysis methods were limited.
Protein-energy wasting (PEW) facilitates major adverse clinical outcomes in chronic renal failure (CRF), with current therapies not suitable for all patients. Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (F. prausnitzii) can alleviate chronic kidney disease, with unclear effects and mechanisms on CRF with PEW.

Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in chronic kidney disease patients, necessitating effective management to prevent adverse outcomes. This study evaluates the efficacy of surgical intervention in achieving biochemical balance in SHPT patients resistant to medical therapy. The study includes 36 patients with SHPT who underwent subtotal parathyroidectomy following failed medical management.

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare systemic autoinflammatory disorder that can present with fever, arthritis, and systemic inflammation, often complicating underlying chronic conditions. This report describes the case of a 71-year-old male patient with chronic kidney disease-related renal anemia and pseudogout (calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD)) treated on an outpatient basis. The patient presented to our hospital with rectal bleeding lasting for two to three weeks, leading to the identification of rapidly progressing anemia through blood tests.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant global health challenge. Inflammation plays a central role in the pathogenesis and progression of CKD, which has been proved to be affected by dietary patterns. To understand how dietary inflammatory index (DII) impacts the disease course and clinical parameters, we aim to explore the relationship between DII and multiple clinical parameters in a specific cohort of CKD patients, and to provide insights into the potential of dietary for managing CKD.
