The dynamic study of a number of clinical and laboratory findings in 107 patients with acute peritonitis have shown that with the current complex infusion therapy the onset of postoperative complications is to a great extent mediated by high toxin level--medium molecular mass polypeptide, inhibiting the processes of protein synthesis and consequently causing changes in the relationship between adaptation compensatory reactions, which demonstrates the necessity of additional active detoxicating therapy, i.e. hemosorption (HS). HS was performed to 126 patients and its efficacy in pronounced toxemia was established. The data obtained make it possible to consider HS as an effective means preventing the onset of postoperative complications in acute peritonitis.

Background Aims: SBP leads to high rates acute kidney injury (AKI) -hepatorenal syndrome and mortality. Population-based studies on contemporary SBP epidemiology are needed to inform care. In a large, national cohort of patients diagnosed with SBP and confirmed by ascitic fluid criteria, we characterized ascitic fluid characteristics, in-hospital and 12-month mortality, AKI, and recurrent SBP.

This case report presents a newborn with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency who developed significant lactic acidosis and acute kidney injury after birth. Peritoneal dialysis with glucose-based peritoneal dialysis fluid was initially started, but the patient had worsening hyperglycemia and lactic acidosis, likely related to excess glucose reabsorption with shunting to lactate due to the underlying metabolic disorder. As amino acid-based dialysis solution was not available in our formulary, a dialysis fluid was manually created with Vaminolact, which was commonly used in neonatal parenteral nutrition.

Background: Efforts to improve adherence to quality measures in cirrhosis care are encouraged by AASLD to improve clinical outcomes.
Methods: We prospectively evaluated two best practice advisory (BPA) interventions to alert clinicians caring for patients with cirrhosis and acute variceal hemorrhage (AVH) or spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP).
Results: Our BPAs increased utilization.

Objective: This study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes and progression-free and overall survival in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) versus those without after hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian cancer.
Methods: This is a retrospective, single-institution cohort study of patients with ovarian cancer treated with HIPEC at the Cleveland Clinic from January 2009 to December 2022. All patients received HIPEC with cisplatin and renal protection with mannitol and furosemide.

Background: Gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis lacks effective predictive indices. This article retrospectively explored predictive values of DNA ploidy, stroma, and nucleotyping in gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis.
Methods: A comprehensive analysis was conducted on specimens obtained from 80 gastric cancer patients who underwent gastric resection at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of Wuhan University Renmin Hospital.
