A 62-year-old patient on anticoagulant therapy presented with hemothorax, pulmonary hemorrhages and a high retroperitoneal hematoma with obstruction-infarction of the right kidney. Following plasma infusion and pleural drainage, the clinical condition stabilized and kidney function improved.

Background: Regionally anticoagulated continuous renal replacement therapy with citrate is the first choice for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. If citrate that reaches the patient exceeds the metabolic capacity, metabolic alkalosis will follow. Bicarbonate from the treatment fluids will also reach the patient and add to the bicarbonate load.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the biological changes in rabbit corneas caused by two light-activated corneal stiffening methods: riboflavin with UVA and WST11 with NIR.
  • Differentially expressed proteins were identified following treatments, showing RF-D/UVA affected cell metabolism and keratocyte differentiation, while WST-D/NIR influenced extracellular matrix regulation.
  • The findings reveal a metabolic shift towards glycolysis in RF-D/UVA treated corneas compared to normal respiration in WST-D/NIR treated corneas, highlighting the distinct biological effects of each treatment.

Background: Dextrocardia is a rare congenital condition, affecting approximately 1 in 10,000-12,000 individuals. When combined with atrial fibrillation (AF), it becomes even rarer. "One-stop" surgery, including combined radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO), has become a common clinical treatment for patients with AF who develop cerebral infarction despite regular oral anticoagulants.

Chronic subdural hematoma is a common condition in neurosurgical practice. It is usually treated by burr-hole surgery. Patients with coagulopathies such as antiphospholipid syndrome, are at increased risk of complications, and careful consideration of the patient's specific risk of both bleeding and thromboembolic complications must guide medical management.

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Hemodialysis: An International, Multicentric Registry.

Background: The net benefit of oral anticoagulation in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis (HD) is uncertain. In recent years, left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as an alternative to oral anticoagulation; however, there is scant evidence of LAAC in patients on HD.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of LAAC in patients on HD.
