Background: Rhabdomyolysis is frequently associated with acute kidney injury (AKI). Due to the nephrotoxic properties of myoglobin, its rapid removal is relevant. If kidney replacement therapy (KRT) is necessary for AKI, a procedure with effective myoglobin elimination should be preferred.

Arthropod-borne viral diseases are acute febrile illnesses, sometimes with chronic effects, that can be debilitating and even fatal worldwide, affecting particularly vulnerable populations. Indigenous communities face not only the burden of these acute febrile illnesses, but also the cardiovascular complications that are worsened by urbanization. A cross-sectional study was conducted in an Indigenous population in the Northeast Region of Brazil to explore the association between arboviral infections (dengue, chikungunya, and Zika) and cardiac biomarkers, including cardiotrophin 1, growth differentiation factor 15, lactate dehydrogenase B, fatty-acid-binding protein 3, myoglobin, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, cardiac troponin I, big endothelin 1, and creatine kinase-MB, along with clinical and anthropometric factors.

An electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor was developed for the highly sensitive and specific detection of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and the rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). H-FABP is a biomarker that is highly specific to cardiac tissue and is associated with a range of cardiac diseases. Following myocardial injury, the rate of increase in H-FABP levels is greater than that observed for myoglobin and troponin.

This work comments on an article published in the recent issue of the . Rhabdomyolysis is a complex condition with symptoms such as myalgia, changes to urination, and weakness. With the potential for substantial kidney impairment, it has also been shown to be a severe complication of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Rhabdomyolysis (RM)-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) involves the release of large amounts of iron ions from excess myoglobin in the kidneys, which mediates the overproduction of reactive species with the onset of iron overload via the Fenton reaction, thus inducing ferroptosis and leading to renal dysfunction. Unfortunately, there are no effective treatments for AKI other than supportive care. Herein, we developed a multifunctional nanoplatform (MPD) by covalently bonding melanin nanoparticles (MP NPs) to deferoxamine.
