Aim: To study the effect of the CYP2D6*4 polymorphism on serum sodium concentration in users of antidepressants [selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs)].

Methods: In this population-based cohort study, all subjects in the Rotterdam Study were included who used an antidepressant at baseline and from whom a blood sample was available in which CYP2D6 genotype and serum sodium concentration could be determined (n= 76). Multivariate linear regression was used to study the association between CYP2D6*4 and serum sodium concentration.

Results: CYP2D6 poor metabolizers (PMs) (*4/*4) had a significantly lower mean serum sodium concentration in comparison with CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers (EMs) (*1/*1) [difference -3.9 mmol l(-1); 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.86, -7.03; P= 0.013]. In CYP2D6*4 heterozygotes (*1/*4) serum sodium concentration was 1.7 mmol l(-1) (95% CI -3.48, 0.18) lower compared with CYP2D6 EMs, but this difference was not statistically significant (P= 0.077).

Conclusions: The serum sodium concentration in PMs was lower in users of an antidepressant, especially in TCA users. Therefore CYP2D6 PMs might be at increased risk of developing symptoms of hyponatraemia.

Clinical efficacy and safety of sodium thiosulfate in the treatment of uremic pruritus: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Arch Dermatol Res

Uremic pruritus (UP) is a debilitating condition frequently associated with chronic kidney disease, severely impairing patients' quality of life and contributing to increased mortality. Recent studies have suggested that intravenous sodium thiosulfate (STS) may offer therapeutic relief for pruritus in patients undergoing hemodialysis. To assess its effectiveness, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the potential of intravenous STS in managing UP.

Background: Individuals with end-stage renal disease may be at increased risk of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) associated with dialysis therapy. However, community-based studies with comprehensive adjudication of SCA are lacking.

Methods: We conducted a community-based study using a case-case study design in a US population of ≈1 million.
