Acute Kidney Injury Post Hip Fracture Surgery: Local Quality Improvement Project and Review of Literature.
Cureus
December 2024
Trauma and Orthopaedics, University Hospitals Sussex National Health Service (NHS) Foundation Trust, Sussex, GBR.
Background: The aim of the study is to identify the potential risk factors for postoperative AKI in hip fracture patients.
Design And Methods: Using our local neck of femur (NOF) registration data, patient details were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Electronic records of patients were assessed retrospectively, including blood results, radiological investigations, clinical documentation, and drug charts.
NephroCheck as a Predictor of Acute Kidney Injury Following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, HonorHealth, Scottsdale, USA.
Background Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) remains a significant complication following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), affecting 22%-30% of patients. This study evaluates the efficacy of NephroCheck, a biomarker-based test measuring insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP2), in predicting postoperative AKI. Methods In this retrospective observational cohort study, 21 patients undergoing isolated CABG were analyzed.

Cureus
December 2024
Surgery, George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Washington, D.C., USA.
A 31-year-old male patient with a history of sickle cell disease (SCD) with stage V chronic kidney disease (CKD) presented for a deceased donor kidney transplant. During surgery, the transplanted kidney showed mottling and limited cortical flow, raising concerns for an intraoperative sickle cell crisis versus hyperacute rejection. Postoperative imaging revealed decreased vascularity, and the patient was treated with RBC exchange.

EClinicalMedicine
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.
Background: Limited studies have suggested an effect of dietary choline intake on uric acid levels. We aim to investigate the associations between choline intake and hyperuricemia (HUA), as well as the mediating role of kidney function in this relationship, among the Chinese population aged 6-17 years.
Methods: Participants were divided into quartiles according to residual energy-adjusted dietary choline intake in our cross-sectional study.
90-day mortality risk related to postoperative potassium levels in patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery.
J Mol Cell Cardiol Plus
June 2023
Unit of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Aalborg University Hospital, Søndre Skovvej 15, 9000 Aalborg, Denmark.
Aims: While electrolyte depletion is known to occur during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with extracorporeal circulation, little is known about the frequency of potassium disturbances following either on- or off-pump CABG and its association with mortality. We examined the frequency of potassium disturbances and the association of plasma potassium with mortality risk in patients following CABG.
Methods And Results: From Danish National Registries, we identified 6123 adult patients (≥18 years old) undergoing first-time CABG, and who had a registered potassium measurement within 14 days before and 7 days after their surgery between 1995 and 2018.
