Background: Research on Jinshuibao (JSB) for chronic renal failure (CRF) is limited, its clinical efficacy on CRF has not been evaluated. Our aim is to systematically evaluate the efficacy of JSB for the treatment of CRF in Chinese patients, and to provide evidence-based medical advice for clinical practice.
Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which compared JSB combined with conventional treatment (CT) with CT alone in CRF were searched in 8 databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of science, China Biology Medicine disc, Wanfang, Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure form inception to March 31, 2023. RevMan5.4 statistical software was used for meta-analysis.
Results: 17 trials involving 1431 cases were identified for meta-analysis. The results showed that total effective rate (relative risk [RR] = 1.25, 95% confidence internal [CI]: 1.17-1.34, P < .00001), creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) (MD = -8.63, 95% CI: -12.42 to -4.84, P < .00001), albumin (Alb) (MD = -2.88, 95% CI: -4.85 to -0.92, P = .004) and hemoglobin (Hb) (MD = -5.88, 95% CI: -7.42 to -4.34, P < .00001) in JSB plus CT were significantly higher than those in CT; while blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (MD = 2.03, 95% CI: 1.27-2.80, P < .00001), serum creatinine (Scr) (MD = 48.23, 95% CI: 31.96-64.49, P < .00001), 24-hour urine protein (24hpro) (MD = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.06-0.31, P = .003), uric acid (UA) (MD = 76.36, 95% CI: 12.40-140.31, P = .02), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) (MD = 10.74, 95% CI: 5.04-16.45, P = .0002), interleukin-6 (IL-6) (MD = 5.07,95% CI: 1.21-8.92, P = .01), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) (MD = 3.74, 95% CI: 0.96-6.52, P = .008) in JSB plus CT were significantly lower than those in CT.
Conclusion: Combining JSB with CT has a good effect on the treatment of CRF in Chinese people. High-quality RCTs are needed to further confirm the results.

Uremic pruritus (UP) is a debilitating condition frequently associated with chronic kidney disease, severely impairing patients' quality of life and contributing to increased mortality. Recent studies have suggested that intravenous sodium thiosulfate (STS) may offer therapeutic relief for pruritus in patients undergoing hemodialysis. To assess its effectiveness, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the potential of intravenous STS in managing UP.

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is driven by the severity of systemic inflammation, acute portal hypertension driving circulatory dysfunction, hyperbilirubinemia, and toxicity of bile acids. The spectrum is mostly structural, associated with reduced response to vasoconstrictors. The progression is rapid and need of renal replacement therapy and extracorporeal therapies may be required for the management.

Background: The pathogenesis of sepsis is thought to be linked to a dysregulated immune response, particularly that involving neutrophils. We have developed a granulocyte adsorption column as a "decoy organ," which relocates the massive inflammation in organs in the body to a blood purification column. This study was conducted to assess the safety and experimental effectiveness of granulocyte monocyte adsorption apheresis-direct hemoperfusion (G1-DHP) in the treatment of patients with sepsis, using a prospective, multicenter design.

Introduction: Pseudotumors are benign lesions which may mimic like a malignant tumor on conventional imaging. They are formed in kidneys which are scarred and deformed by chronic pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, trauma or infarction. There is a diagnostic dilemma in most of the cases as to differentiate RCC and pseudotumors.
