Background: Accurate assessment of fluid volume and hydration status is essential in many disease states, including patients with chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of a wearable continuous bioimpedance sensor to detect changes in fluid volume in patients undergoing regular hemodialysis (HD).

Methods: 31 patients with end-stage renal disease were enrolled and monitored with a sensor patch (Re:Balans) on the upper back through two consecutive HD sessions and the interdialytic period between.

Background: McKittrick-Wheelock syndrome is an uncommon and severe disorder caused by large hypersecretory tumors located in the distal colorectal area. Excessive secretion from adenomas is an unusual clinical manifestation that leads to severe electrolyte and fluid depletion, subsequently resulting in kidney injury. Successful treatment relies on quick and cooperative decision-making for timely intervention.

Fluid overload trajectories and mortality in hemodialysis patients.

Background: Fluid overload remains critical in managing patients with end-stage kidney disease. However, there is limited empirical understanding of fluid overload's impact on mortality. This study analyzes fluid overload trajectories and their association with mortality in hemodialysis patients.

Article Synopsis
  • A multicenter study evaluated the impact of a restrictive fluid strategy versus a standard fluid strategy in ICU patients with septic shock, aiming to minimize fluid intake to avoid complications from positive fluid balance.
  • By analyzing 48 patients over 5 days, the restrictive group received significantly less fluid (89.7 ml/kg vs. 114.3 ml/kg), resulting in a smaller cumulative fluid balance.
  • However, after 28 days, both groups showed similar mortality and survival without life support, indicating no clear benefits of the restrictive strategy despite differences in fluid management during the initial week.

The organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT) is a forebrain circumventricular organ that modulates central autonomic control of arterial pressure and body fluid homeostasis. It has been implicated in the pathogenesis of rat models of hypertension that are driven by increased salt intake since OVLT lesion (OVLTx) attenuates both the DOCA-salt and angiotensin II-salt models. However, its contribution to the development of hypertension that is not salt-dependent, such as the 2 kidney, 1 clip (2K1C) renovascular model, is not clear.
