Aim: To improve surgical results in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urolithiasis (UL) and to evaluate the efficacy of Furamag used as an agent to prevent infectious and inflammatory complications.
Subjects And Methods: Seventy-two patients with BPH (n = 36; Group 1) and UL (n = 36; Group 2) were examined. Within each group, the patients were divided into two subgroups: A) those in whom no preventive measures were taken during endoscopic operations; B) those who received Furamag as a preventive agent. The preventive efficacy was evaluated from the urine microbial spectrum and renal microcirculatory values.
Results: The preventive use of Furamag could achieve better urine sanitation, normalize renal microcirculatory values, and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.
Conclusion: The use of Furamag to prevent intravesical obstruction (IVO) during transurethral prostatic resection and UL reduces the incidence of IVO, results in less noticeable renal microcirculatory disorders, and accordingly assists in lowering the incidence of postoperative complications.

Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury: Pathophysiology and Treatment Modalities.

Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a critical complication that significantly contributes to the morbidity and mortality of sepsis patients. This narrative review explores the complex and multifactorial pathophysiology of S-AKI, which involves hemodynamic alterations, microcirculatory dysfunction, endothelial damage, inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, and direct tubular injury. Conventional perspectives linking S-AKI primarily to reduced renal blood flow are now being reconsidered, with growing insights highlighting the significance of microcirculatory dysfunction and endothelial activation as key contributors.

The aim of this study was to conduct experiments using laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) technology to investigate the effects of high salt diet on renal vascular reactivity in mice. LSCI is a technology for monitoring blood flow based on the laser speckle principle. It has been widely used to detect microcirculatory functions in tissues such as the skin and brain.

Microcirculatory dysfunction, hypoxia, and inflammation are considered to be central in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). In this experimental study, we hypothesized that extracorporeal removal of inflammatory cytokines by hemoadsorption (HA) therapy may mitigate renal injury associated with sepsis-induced AKI. To this end, we investigated renal microcirculatory oxygenation and perfusion, oxygen consumption, lactate, systemic hemodynamic variables, tubular cell integrity, inflammatory mediators, and kidney function in a rat model of septic AKI elicited by endotoxin infusion.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to explore how macular microcirculation is related to kidney function in non-diabetic hypertensive patients and whether macular parameters could be used to track kidney health.
- - Researchers analyzed 62 patients, dividing them into those with renal dysfunction and those with normal kidney function, using optical imaging techniques to assess macular microcirculation.
- - Results showed that patients with renal dysfunction had significantly lower measurements of macular microcirculation, suggesting that these parameters could be useful for monitoring kidney function in this group.
Lactated Ringers, albumin and mannitol as priming during cardiopulmonary bypass reduces pulmonary edema in rats compared with hydroxyethyl starch.

Article Synopsis
- Endothelial disorders leading to edema and poor tissue oxygenation are common in cardiac surgery with CPB, prompting researchers to investigate the protective effects of albumin as a component in the CPB circuit.
- In a study with male rats, CPB primed with LR/albumin/mannitol resulted in lower pulmonary edema compared to 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) despite similar renal edema levels, indicating potential benefits of using albumin in surgical settings.
- Although microcirculatory perfusion was impaired during CPB for both groups and did not improve post-CPB, the LR/albumin/mannitol group needed significantly less fluid and medication to maintain adequate blood flow, alongside showing reduced inflammatory markers
