Jan 7th, 2021 - Serum potassium disorders, commonly observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD), are reportedly associated with higher mortality, but their impact on renal outcomes is still controversial. The present study used the longitudinal data of the Fukushima...

Jan 7th, 2021 - Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening condition associated with the use of heart failure (HF) medications, which can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Novel approaches for hyperkalemia prevention are needed, especially in limited...

Jan 7th, 2021 - Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common serious complication in critically ill patients. AKI occurs in up to 50% patients in intensive care unit (ICU), with poor clinical prognosis. Renal replacement therapy (RRT) has been widely used in critically ...

Dec 30th, 2020 - Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) occurs frequently among children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Although a number of complications may occur during episodes of DKA, significant cardiac arrhythmias are uncommon. We present the case of an adolesc...
