Hemodialysis in schizophrenia

open access: yesComprehensive Psychiatry, 1960
Summary o 1. The clinical observation of acute schizophrenic patients, particularly of cases of catatonia, leads to the assumption of a toxin as a concomitant cause (“Mitursache”) in this psychosis. On the basis of this assumption hemodialysis was performed to eliminate from the blood a (hypothetical) toxin. 2.

Porphyria Cutanea Tarda in a Patient with End-Stage Renal Disease: A Case of Successful Treatment with Deferoxamine and Ferric Carboxymaltose

open access: yesCase Reports in Nephrology, 2017
Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is a rare disease, with a strong association with hepatitis C virus. PCT is particularly problematic in end-stage renal disease patients as they have no renal excretion of porphyrins and these are poorly dialyzed.

IL-10 -1082 A/G polymorphism is related with the risk and clinical characteristics of acute kidney injury: a case-control study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2021
Background Interleukin-10 (IL-10), a kind of anti-inflammation cytokine, has a key role in the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). Recently, several studies addressed the link between the risk of AKI and the IL-10 -1082 A/G polymorphism with ...

Evaluating epoetin dosing strategies using observational longitudinal data [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 4, 2356-2377, 2015
Epoetin is commonly used to treat anemia in chronic kidney disease and End Stage Renal Disease subjects undergoing dialysis, however, there is considerable uncertainty about what level of hemoglobin or hematocrit should be targeted in these subjects. In order to address this question, we treat epoetin dosing guidelines as a type of dynamic treatment ...

Hemodialysis membrane-related neutrophil dysfunctions and pentoxifylline - a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Hemodialysis treatment is associated with activation of neutrophil granulocytes. Pentoxifylline has been shown to inhibit neutrophil activation in vitro and in vivo.

Flow and filtration imaging of single use sterile membrane filters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sterile filters incorporating endotoxin adsorption function emerged recently to pretreat dialysate liquids fed to a hemodialysis filtration process. Their application significantly enhances the survival rate during dialysis treatment as they function as sterile filters as well as an endotoxin adsorber.

Computational analysis for competition flows in arteriovenous fistulas based on non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Introduction: Characteristics of hemodynamics strongly affect the patency of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in hemodialysis patients. Because of pressure balance changes among arteries after AVF construction, regurgitating flow occurs in some patients.

Nocturnal hemodialysis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Nephrology, 2012
Patients receiving conventional hemodialysis have high hospitalisation rates, poor quality of life and survival compared to the general population. Many centres around the world are providing longer hours of hemodialysis - short daily hemodialysis and nocturnal hemodialysis - with a view to improving patient survival and quality of life.

Date-Driven Approach for Identifying State of Hemodialysis Fistulas: Entropy-Complexity and Formal Concept Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The paper explores mathematical methods that differentiate regular and chaotic time series, specifically for identifying pathological fistulas. It proposes a noise-resistant method for classifying responding rows of normally and pathologically functioning fistulas.
