Diuretics and mortality reduction in incident dialysis patients: a two-year observational study.
Sci Rep

Renal Research Division, AURAL, 4 rue Henri Bergson, 67200, Strasbourg, France.
Fluid overload predicts morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. Diuretics can reduce fluid overload, but their effects on morbi-mortality following inception remain ill-defined. To determine whether diuretics reduce mortality and hospitalization rates in incident dialysis patients in the first 2 years after inception.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis have a higher mortality rate associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Although vaccines are now available, the protective response rates and determinants of humoral response to the vaccine are poorly described in patients on peritoneal dialysis. This was a prospective observational study describing the response rates of detectable and standardized protective antibody titers one month after each mRNA vaccine dose in a cohort of 88 patients on peritoneal dialysis.

Article Synopsis
- Diuretics might help reduce fluid overload in patients before starting dialysis, and this study explored their impact on delaying dialysis necessity, conditions at the start of dialysis, and early mortality.
- Researchers analyzed data from over 59,000 patients who started dialysis between 2009 and 2015, categorizing them based on their exposure to diuretics over the previous year.
- Results showed that those continuously using diuretics had fewer emergency dialysis starts, required fewer central venous catheters, experienced lower hospitalization rates, and potentially had lower mortality in the first three months after starting dialysis compared to those who stopped or never used diuretics.
Early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes in France: multidisciplinary expert opinion, prevention value and practical recommendations.

Diabetes is the leading cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), accounting for approximately 50% of patients starting dialysis. However, the management of these patients at the stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains poor, with fragmented care pathways among healthcare professionals (HCPs). Diagnosis of CKD and most of its complications is based on laboratory evidence.

It should be the ultimate goal of any theory of evolution to delineate the contours of an integrative system to answer the question: How does life (in all its complexity) evolve (which can be called mega-evolution)? But how to plausibly define 'life'? My answer (1994-2023) is: 'life' sounds like a noun, but denotes an activity, and thus is a verb. Life (L) denotes nothing else than the total sum (∑) of all acts of communication (transfer of information) (C) executed by any type of senders-receivers at all their levels (up to at least 15) of compartmental organization: L = ∑C. The 'communicating compartment' is better suited to serve as the universal unit of structure, function and evolution than the cell, the smallest such unit.
