Safety of pre-operative venogram for hemodialysis access planning in pre-end-stage kidney disease patients.
J Vasc Access

Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
Background: Although conventional pre-operative venography can accurately delineate venous anatomy as an alternative to ultrasound for hemodialysis access planning, it may carry a risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and progression of renal failure in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients not yet on dialysis. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pre-operative venograms in pre-end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study (2018-2022) of consecutive pre-ESKD patients who underwent staged bilateral venograms for preoperative vein mapping prior to hemodialysis access creation at a tertiary care medical center.
Predictors of renal outcomes and mortality in patients with renal vein thrombosis: a retrospective multicenter study.

Nephrology Unit, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Minia University, Taha Hussein Street, Minia, Egypt.
Background: Studies on renal vein thrombosis have been conducted as case reports or case series. The renal outcomes and mortality risk of renal vein thrombosis have not been fully established. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, and predictors of renal outcomes and mortality in patients with renal vein thrombosis in a large multicenter cohort.

Purpose: This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify factors associated with preoperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in elderly patients with femoral neck fractures, and to investigate whether combining these factors could improve the ability to predict DVT.
Method: Medical records and laboratory test results were reviewed patients presenting with a femoral neck fracture and receiving routine chemoprophylaxis for DVT between January 2020 and December 2023 in a tertiary referral, university-affiliated hospital. Preoperative DVT was confirmed by Doppler ultrasound or CT venography.

Ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Due to the urgency of implementing immediate therapy, acute stroke necessitates prompt diagnosis. The current gold standards for vascular imaging in stroke include computed tomography angiography (CTA), digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).

Article Synopsis
- Herpes encephalitis is a serious illness caused by the herpes virus, affecting the brain and can lead to complications like blood clots in the brain (cerebral venous thrombosis or CVT).
- A 14-year-old girl showed symptoms like confusion, headaches, and fever, leading doctors to suspect encephalitis; tests later confirmed she had HSV-1 causing her illness.
- She was treated with special medications, but had some side effects, and doctors learned that CVT can happen along with herpes encephalitis, even though it's not common.
