Chronic renal failure (CRF) during pregnancy increases the risk of fetomaternal complications such as preeclampsia, premature delivery and, above all, a deterioration of renal function. A multidisciplinary preconceptional assessment is necessary in this complex clinical situation. Progress in neonatal resuscitation and a better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of autoimmune nephropathy have improved the prognosis of these high-risk pregnancies. This article provides an overview of the issues related to the follow-up of pregnant women with renal disease. It summarizes the glomerular and hemodynamic physiological changes during pregnancy, the fetal and maternal risk, and the adaptation of antihypertensive and immunosuppressive drug treatments.

Background: Streptococcal Toxic Shock Syndrome (STSS) is a life-threatening condition caused by bacterial toxins. The STSS triad encompasses high fever, hypotensive shock, and a "sunburn-like" rash with desquamation. STSS, like Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), is a rare complication of streptococcal infec-tions caused by Group A Streptococcus (GAS), Streptococcal pyogenes (S.

Background: Type I myocardial infarction (T1MI) or type II myocardial infarction (T2MI) have different underlying mechanisms; however, in the setting of cardiogenic shock (CS), it is not understood if patients experience resultantly different outcomes. The objective of this study was to determine clinical features, biomarker patterns, and outcomes in these subgroups.
Methods: Patients from the CAPITAL-DOREMI trial presenting with acute myocardial infarction-associated CS (n = 103) were classified as T1MI (n = 61) or T2MI (n = 42).
Evaluation of Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitors Febuxostat and Allopurinol on Kidney Dysfunction and Histological Damage in Two-Kidney, One-Clip (2K1C) Rats.

In chronic kidney disease (CKD), hyperuricemia is a common phenomenon, presumably due to reduced renal clearance of uric acid. This study investigated the effect of xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors allopurinol and febuxostat to prevent oxidative stress in the kidney of two-kidney, one-clip (2K1C) rats. In this investigation, 2K1C rats were used as an experimental animal model for kidney dysfunction.
