AI Article Synopsis

  • * Highlights issues with current treatments, including cardiovascular risks and poor response to ESAs, prompting the search for new therapeutic options.
  • * Discusses hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHIs) in clinical trials as promising alternatives that stimulate red blood cell production and manage iron metabolism.

Article Abstract

To investigate current treatment practices for anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), issues surrounding current treatment practices, and the hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHI) that are currently in clinical trials. Treatment of anemia in patients with CKD has traditionally included iron supplementation and erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). However, due to adverse cardiovascular (CV) events and hypo-responsiveness to ESA therapy, new agents are currently in clinical trials to treat anemia in patients with CKD. The HIF-PHIs stimulate erythropoiesis and regulate iron metabolism and are attractive alternatives to iron supplementation and ESAs.

Unlabelled: Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) makes an individual prone to bacterial infections. The antimicrobial defence mechanism of neutrophils is orchestrated by Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Hydrogen (NADPH) oxidative burst which is iron-dependent. The few previous studies documenting a decrease in neutrophil oxidative burst in iron-deficient children have been based mainly on the Nitro blue tetrazolium test (NBT).

Background: Patients who "no-show" (NS) clinical appointments are at a higher risk of poor healthcare outcomes. The objective of this study was to evaluate and characterize the relationship between patient NS prior to primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and 90-day complication risk after THA.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 4147 patients undergoing primary THA.

Background And Aim: Phosphate dysregulation is often associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and recent studies suggest that it may also be present in non-CKD patients with systemic conditions including iron deficiency anemia. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between iron deficiency parameters (total iron-binding capacity {TIBC}, hemoglobin, and serum ferritin) and markers of proximal tubular dysfunction (the maximal tubular reabsorption of phosphate normalized to glomerular filtration rate {TmP/GFR} and tubular reabsorption of phosphate {TRP}) in non-CKD patients with iron deficiency anemia.

Methods: This was a hospital-based analytical cross-sectional study conducted in the outpatient department and/or inpatient wards of the Department of Internal Medicine, Swaroop Rani Nehru (SRN) Hospital associated with Moti Lal Nehru (MLN) Medical College, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India, between July 2023 and August 2024.

Malaria, a mosquito-borne disease caused by five plasmodium species, still has a life-threatening risk worldwide. Clinical manifestations can range from mild nonspecific symptoms to severe disease. In non-endemic regions, sporadic cases frequently pose significant challenges to health workers as delayed diagnosis can lead to serious consequences and even death.
