The authors carried out a research on the social and labour problems of the people affected by chronic renal failure, either on dialysis treatment or already transplanted since two years. It has been given a questionnaire based on questions about the person, the working position, the social insurance situation, the family and personal problems. The results show a good social reinsert and a good recover of the transplanted in opposition of the many problems had by those on dialysis; in particular it has been considered also the problem of the periodic absences from work. It has been also considered the italian law situation regarding the people affected by chronic renal failure in some different social insurance fields.

Introduction: Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) is increasingly common, with sepsis being a serious but rare complication. Sepsis rates in rTHA vary widely, and understanding risk factors is crucial for improving outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the incidence of sepsis following rTHA and identify preoperative and intraoperative predictors.

ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease marked by varying organ involvement and outcomes. Plasma exchange, a method of removing native plasma and replacing it with crystalloid, albumin or donor plasma, can deplete autoantibodies and may help control autoimmune diseases rapidly. In AAV, several randomized controlled trials have been performed but, individually, had mixed results.

Introduction: End-stage renal disease patients have impaired health-related quality of life as compared to the general population due to the combined effects of the disease and hemodialysis (HD) therapy. As a result, poor quality of life increases their risk of mortality and hospitalization and affects their general well-being. While existing rehabilitation programs aim to improve physical activity in HD patients, the link between work status, particularly within the first year of treatment, and their quality of life remains unclear.

Background: The rising growth of patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) associated with chronic liver disease (CLD) and refractory chronic heart failure (CHF) associated with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicated by ascites presents serious renal replacement therapy (RRT) challenges. Haemodialysis is often poorly tolerated owing to increased hemodynamic instability, bleeding, and encephalopathy risks. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has emerged as a promising alternative, but its adoption and efficacy are not consistently supported by existing literature, and there lacks guideline consensus.

The vast majority of patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) who transition to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are treated with dialysis. Given that dialysis does not always have the intended effects of increasing longevity and/or improving health, particularly in those with high comorbidity burden and/or older age groups, there has been increasing emphasis on interventions that delay or avert the need for renal replacement therapy. Among the multi-disciplinary approaches used to reduce CKD progression, dietary interventions are a major cornerstone.
