Complex I deficiency is a frequent defect of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. We report on a 3-year-old boy, who rapidly deteriorated after sudden flushing and collapse. This fatal and unusual case was characterized by widely uncontrollable arterial hypertension. It might indicate that hypertensive crisis could be a potential manifestation of mitochondrial disorders.

Importance: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or its receptor (anti-CGRP mAbs) offer effective migraine-specific preventive treatment. However, concerns exist about their potential cardiovascular risks due to CGRP blockade.
Objective: To compare the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) between Medicare beneficiaries with migraine who initiated anti-CGRP-mAbs vs onabotulinumtoxinA in the US.
Unlabelled: The most frequent cause of nephritic syndrome in the pediatric population is acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN). A rare complication is posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), characterized by subcortical vasogenic cerebral edema associated with variable neurological symptoms. The development of autoimmune hemolytic anemia is an atypical clinical presentation.

Background: There remains a paucity of data regarding the cardio-renal benefits of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5 (CKD V) based on major clinical trials.
Objective: This retrospective study aimed to identify potential cardiovascular and renal outcomes associated with SGLT2i use in CKD V patients.
Methods: We queried the TriNetX Global collaborative network from Jan 2014 - Aug 2023 for patients ≥18 years diagnosed with CKD V but not on dialysis.
