A simple and rapid method based on micro-liquid chromatography using a synthetic monolithic capillary column was developed for determination of iohexol in human serums, a marker to evaluate the glomerular filtration rate. A hydrophilic methacrylic acid-ethylene dimethacrylate monolith provided excellent selectivity and efficiency for iohexol with separation time of 3 min using a mobile phase of 40:60 v/v 50 mM phosphate buffer pH 5/methanol. Four serum protein removal, methods using perchloric acid, 50% acetonitrile, 0.1 M zinc sulfate, and centrifuge membrane filter were examined. The method of zinc sulfate was chosen due to its simplicity, compatibility with the mobile phase system, nontoxicity, and low cost. Interday calibration curves were conducted over iohexol concentrations range of 2-500 mg/L (R(2) = 0.9997 ± 0.0001) with detection limit of 0.44 mg/L. Intra- and interday precisions for peak area and retention time were less than 2.8 and 1.4%, respectively. The method was successfully applied to serum samples with percent recoveries from 102 to 104. The method was applied to monitor released iohexol from healthy subject. Compared with the commercially available reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method, the presented method provided simpler chromatogram, faster separation with higher separation efficiency and much lower sample and solvent consumption.

Background: The estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is essential in the early detection of diabetic nephropathy. We herein compare the performance of common eGFR formulas against a gold standard measurement of GFR in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Methods: GFR was measured in 93 patients with diabetes mellitus using iohexol clearance as the reference standard.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on different formulas is commonly used as a bedside tool to assess kidney function in children and young adults. The purpose of this study was to perform a measurement of glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with a standard 5-point protocol using iohexol clearance and compare it to a simplified protocol for mGFR determination and to some of the most commonly used eGFR formulas. A 5-point standard protocol using iohexol clearance was used for determination of mGFR in 50 children with mild stages of CKD.

Article Synopsis
  • This study analyzed the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to investigate negative reactions associated with iodinated contrast media (ICM) over nearly two decades (2004-2023).
  • It focused on five types of ICMs, assessing 11 million reports to identify the nature and strength of adverse events linked to these drugs using various statistical methods.
  • Findings indicated significant adverse drug reactions primarily related to respiratory and immune disorders, with specific concerns for throat irritation among females linked to ioversol and iopromide.

Background: The neurolytic celiac plexus block (NCPB) can be introduced through the posterior para-aortic, anterior para-aortic, posterior transaortic, or endoscopic anterior para-aortic puncture approach, as well as the posterior approach via the intervertebral disc. To reduce the complications of puncture, this block's original manual blind puncture technique can be improved upon by using a C-arm fluoroscope, computed tomography (CT), or an ultrasound, the last of which may be endoscopic.

Objective: To observe the distribution of absolute alcohol and its analgesic effect on cancer-induced upper abdominal visceral pain during percutaneous NCPB through the anterior and posterior diaphragmatic crura under CT guidance.

Effect of dapagliflozin on renal haemodynamics in hyperfiltering T2D patients.

Diabetes Obes Metab

February 2025

Division of Diabetes, Department of Medicine, University of Texas Health and Texas Diabetes Institute, University Health System, San Antonio, Texas, USA.

Aims: To investigate the effect of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor [SGLT-2i] therapy on renal haemodynamics in T2D patients with glomerular hyperfiltration.

Materials And Methods: Sixty T2D patients with elevated [HYPER] and normal [NORMO] GFR were randomized to dapagliflozin 10 mg/day [DAPA/HYPER, n = 15; DAPA/NORMO, n = 15] or to metformin/glipizide [CONTROL/HYPER, n = 15; CONTROL/NORMO, n = 15] to reach similar glycaemic control after 4 months. GFR was measured with Iohexol and hyperfiltration was empirically defined as >125 mL/min/1.
