A 50-year-old post-menopausal recipient of a kidney allograft with bone pain, osteoporosis, persistent hypercalcaemia and elevated parathormone (PTH) levels, despite a satisfactory graft function, was treated with bisphosphonates and cinacalcet starting, respectively, 5 and 6 months after renal transplantation (RT). Sixteen months after treatment, there was improvement of bone mineral density (BMD) measured by ...
The use of bicarbonate buffer in dialysis is more physiological than acetate. The aim of this prospective study was to compare the hemodynamic stability, acid-base and electrolyte balance changes in a group of 5 hospital hemodialysis (HD) patients, with 3 different dialysis fluids: one with 30 mEq/l of bicarbonate (B30), another with 34 mEq/l of bicarbonate (B34) and the last with acetate (ACE). All the patient...
To study the effect of the correction of post-transplantation Hypophosphatemia on mineral metabolism.15 patients with renal transplants for 3 to 12 months, Serum Creatinine "177 micmol/1, were treated with oral phosphorus (P) for persistent hypophosphatemia.3 periods of blood and urine collection at intervals of 3 weeks. T1 under basal treatment with oral P, T2 after 3 weeks off medication with P, Ca, or P bind...
To test the efficacy and safety of a low molecular. Weight heparin (LMWH)--Fraxiparine, for hemodialysis (HD) anticoagulation, compared with conventional heparin (H) or serum lavage without other anticoagulation (L).Prospective controlled study.Twenty-nine consecutive patients referred for dialysis in a tertiary care hospital were divided in 3 groups A, B and C, each group A and B patient submitted to 2 dialysi...
We studied the pre operative status and the 1st, 4th, 12th and 24th hours of the post operative period after open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass with a crystalloid solution containing 10 gr of mannitol. We considered acute renal failure (ARF) as being any increase in plasma creatinine values of 0.25 mg/dl for the first 24 hours and 0.5 mg/dl for periods longer than 24 hours. Six patients had transito...
