Treatment of viral hepatitis C in chronic kidney disease patients with glomerular filtration rate < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 remains a challenge in countries with combinations containing only sofosbuvir. We investigated the efficacy and safety of sofosbuvir based regimens in patients infected with hepatitis C virus and stage 4 and 5 chronic kidney disease....

Complement-Mediated Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: Management Challenge behind the Diagnosis - A Case Report

Ana Carlota Vida* , João Carvão, Pedro Vieira, Luís Resende and Gil Silva

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: March 09, 2023

Acute thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) represent an heterogeneous group of diseases, including complement- mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome (CM-HUS). CM- HUS results from an alternative complement pathway dysregulation as a result of mutations in complement factors or antibodies against these factors. It is important to exclude secondary causes of TMA before establish CM- HUS as a final diagnosis. However, this may be challenging, since complementary evaluation is not always immediately ...

Muco-Cutaneous Manifestations in 144 Renal Transplant Recipients: A Single Center Analysis

Najoua Ammar, Mariam Meziane, Nadia Ismaili, Leila Benzekri and Karima Senouci

Article Type: Case Series | First Published: March 05, 2023

Renal transplantation is the best treatment for the replacement of renal function. The majority of dermatological complications related to renal failure regress after transplantation. Nevertheless, the chronic and powerful systemic immunosuppression, gave rise to a series of mucocutaneous manifestations, hence the need for a systematic and regular follow-up in dermatology. The aim of our work was to evaluate the frequency and the clinical spectrum of dermatological complications observed in rena...

Renal Angina Index and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio: Predictive of Acute Kidney Injury in PICU

Peerapohn Pongsupamongkol, MD, Rujipat Samransamruajkit, MD and Tawatchai Deekajorndech, MD

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: January 23, 2023

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased mortality in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients. Early detection of AKI helps clinicians to manage promptly. Renal angina index (RAI) is established from changes in serum creatinine and condition of patients. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is calculated from a complete blood count (CBC). There are very few studies on the application of RAI and NLR in PICU. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of RAI and NLR as AKI biomar...
