Aim: This study was conducted to determine adherence to diet and fluid restriction in hemodialysis-treated individuals and the affecting factors in Turkey.
Methods: This descriptive study was conducted between 15 October 2010 and 15 January 2011 in subjects who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study from three dialysis centers in a city located in the Central Anatolia Region of Turkey. One hundred and twenty-one individuals treated with hemodialysis made up the study sample. The data were collected using a questionnaire consisting of 41 questions and the Dialysis Diet and Fluid Non-adherence Questionnaire. The data were evaluated with percentage, median, Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Student's t-test in independent samples and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.
Results: The authors found that 98.3% of the individuals experienced non-adherence to diet and 95.0% with fluid restriction. The authors found a weak and negative relationship between calcium levels and non-adherence to fluid restriction, a weak relationship between phosphorus levels and diet non-adherence frequency and degree and the fluid non-adherence frequency scores, and a moderate positive relationship between phosphorus levels and fluid restriction non-adherence degree scores (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Based on these results, regular training and information regarding diet and fluid restriction must be provided to individuals aged 21-35 years with no one in the family to help with their care, those who consumed salted food, or had interdialytic weight gain of 4.5 kg or more.

Purpose: Fibrosis of muscle spindles (sensory organs) in back muscles induced by intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration could limit transmission of muscle stretch to the sensory receptor and explain the proprioceptive deficits common in back pain. Exercise reduces back muscles fibrosis. This study investigated whether targeted muscle activation via neurostimulation reverses or resolves muscle spindle fibrosis in a model of IVD injury.

Perioperative fluid therapy is a pivotal component of surgical patient management, as appropriate fluid administration can significantly enhance postoperative recovery. To standardize perioperative fluid therapy for adult patients in China, the Geriatric Anesthesia and Perioperative Management Group of the Chinese Society of Anesthesiology has developed the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Perioperative Fluid Therapy in Chinese Adult Patients". Based on current clinical status in China, this guideline addressed 11 key areas based on clinical evidence, more than 30% of which is from China researchers, including principles for the selection of common fluid types, preoperative fasting and hydration following enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, intraoperative fluid requirements for adult patients, perioperative volume assessment, perioperative evaluation of volume overload/insufficiency, goal-directed fluid therapy, restrictive fluid therapy, perioperative fluid therapy strategies for high-risk patients, fluid resuscitation for massive blood loss, the relationship between perioperative fluid therapy and postoperative complications, and the relationship between perioperative fluid therapy and ERAS.

Orodispersible film (ODF) is one of the novel formulations that disintegrate rapidly in the mouth without the requisite for water compared to other conventional oral solid dosage formulations. This delivery system serves as a convenient mode of administration, especially in patients who have dysphagia and fluid restriction, being beneficial to pediatric, geriatric, and bedridden patients. A novel sildenafil ODF containing sildenafil citrate is formulated to be used in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED).
