Background: Cisplatin is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) and electrolyte abnormalities. Urine tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) may be early cisplatin-AKI biomarkers.
Methods: We conducted a 12-site prospective cohort study with pediatric patients treated with cisplatin (May 2013-December 2017). Blood and urine (measured for TIMP-2, IGFBP-7) were collected pre-cisplatin, 24-h post-cisplatin, and near hospital discharge during the first or second cisplatin cycle (early visit (EV)) and during second-to-last or last cisplatin cycle (late visit (LV)).
Primary Outcome: serum creatinine (SCr)-defined AKI (≥ stage 1).
Results: At EV (median (interquartile (IQR)) age: 6 (2-12) years; 78 (50%) female), 46/156 (29%) developed AKI; at LV, 22/127 (17%) experienced AKI. At EV, TIMP-2, IGFBP-7, and TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 pre-cisplatin infusion concentrations were significantly higher in participants with vs. those without AKI. At EV and LV, biomarker concentrations were significantly lower in participants with vs. those without AKI at post-infusion and near-hospital discharge. Biomarker values normalized to urine creatinine were higher in patients with AKI compared to without (LV post-infusion, median (IQR): TIMP-2*IGFBP-7: 0.28 (0.08-0.56) vs. 0.04 (0.02-0.12) (ng/mg creatinine)/1000; P < .001). At EV, pre-infusion biomarker concentrations had the highest area under the curves (AUC) (range: 0.61-0.62) for AKI diagnosis; at LV, biomarkers measured post-infusion and near discharge yielded the highest AUCs (range: 0.64-0.70).
Conclusions: TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 were poor to modest at detecting AKI post-cisplatin. Additional studies are needed to determine whether raw biomarker values or biomarker values normalized to urinary creatinine are more strongly associated with patient outcomes.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with adverse hospitalization. Previous studies have reported that an elevated triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is significantly associated with the development of AKI in patients with cardiovascular disease, as well as in those undergoing surgery; however, the potential of the TyG index to predict AKI following neurotrauma remains unclear. Patients diagnosed with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Chinese tertiary hospitals between January 2014 and December 2023 were included in this retrospective study.

Toxoplasmosis induced by Toxoplasma gondii is a well-known health threat, that prompts fatal encephalitis increased with immunocompromised patients, in addition, it can cause chorioretinitis, microcephaly, stillbirth in the fetus and even led to death. Standard therapy uses sulfadiazine and pyrimethamine drugs revealed beneficial results during the acute stage, however, it has severe side effects. UPLC-ESI-MS/MS used to explore C.

Background: Patients on a kidney transplant waiting list with antibodies against more than 80% of a panel reactive antibody (PRA) are difficult to transplant, even with national or regional programs. Desensitization treatment with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin and rituximab could be offered to patients with a long waiting time for a cadaveric donor to improve their odds of finding a kidney.
Methods: This was a retrospective, single-center study including all hyperimmunized patients on the waiting list for a cadaveric kidney donor who received a desensitization treatment between 2010 and 2020.

Background: Telemedicine may help improve care quality and patient outcomes. Telemedicine for intraoperative decision support has not been rigorously studied.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in hospitalized older patients, associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Major adverse kidney events within 30 days (MAKE30), a composite of death, new renal replacement therapy, or persistent renal dysfunction, has been recommended as a patient-centered endpoint for clinical trials involving AKI.
Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based model to predict MAKE30 in hospitalized older patients with AKI.
