The nutritional status of fish is essential for its health, experimental studies, and aquaculture practices. The current study investigated the impact of food deprivation on biochemical parameters, histology of skin, gill, and kidney tissues, and ultrastructure of gills in Clarias batrachus. Fish were subjected to food deprivation for 2, 7, and 15 days resulting in (a) significant increase in plasma cortisol levels, (b) no significant changes in plasma osmolality and plasma glucose content, and (c) significant decrease in liver and muscle glycogen contents.

A spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD), which, if left untreated, can result not only in urinary incontinence and an increased risk of urinary tract infections and kidney dysfunction but may also pose a vital threat to people with SCI. Comprehensive neurourological assessments, including patient history and combined video urodynamics, are essential to accurately classify dysfunction and establish therapeutic strategies. Treatment options include, among others, medications for detrusor regulation, intermittent catheterization, and, if necessary, surgical interventions from intradetrusor botulinum toxin A injections to sacral deafferentation.

As several decades of research have shown the cardioprotective effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors alone or in combination with diuretics, we were interested in investigating the effects of subchronic therapy of these drugs on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) damage to the heart, as well as their influence on oxidative status. The research was conducted on 40 spontaneously hypertensive male Wistar Kyoto rats, divided into 4 groups. Animals were treated for four weeks with 10 mg/kg/day zofenopril alone or in combination with hydrochlorothiazide, indapamide and spironolactone per os.

The utility of the sCAR (secrum creatinine/albumin) and LAR (Lactate dehydrogenase/albumin) as diagnostic markers for persistent severe SA-AKI remains unclear.
Methods: We acquired training set data from the MIMIC-IV database and validation set data from the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University.
