Prevalence of Hypernatremia Among Medically Hospitalized Patients and the Related Clinical Outcomes
Objectives: Hypernatremia is frequently observed, with prevalence varying widely depending on hospital clinical settings. It has been identified as an indicator of mortality and morbidity in critically ill patients.

Extreme hypernatremia in a critically ill patient with feeding-jejunostomy: a case report.
Hypernatremia is a frequent and potentially life-threatening condition in hospitalized patients. It is a disorder of water metabolism and is usually defined as a plasma sodium concentration above 145 mEq/L.

ABSTRACT Background Creatine kinase (CK) is typically associated with skeletal muscle injury, but elevated CK in blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may also be reflective of central nervous system damage. Previous research has therefore explored the role of CK as a biomarker of neurologic disease in veterinary patients.

ABSTRACT Ammonia is a nitrogenous molecule which is primarily generated in the gastrointestinal tract. The neurotoxicity of ammonia plays a critical role in the liver's regulation of circulating ammonia levels. In liver disease, an increase in blood ammonia has been long implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), a neurological ...

ABSTRACT Long‐term survivors of suprasellar germinomas may develop delayed hypothalamic dysfunction, presenting as recurrent hypothermia after years of apparently normal thermoregulation. Recognition of this delayed complication and proactive thermal management are essential to prevent severe hypothermic episodes.

Persistent atrial fibrillation, frequent premature ventricular complexes, and limited tolerance of guideline‐directed medical therapy contributed to progressive ventricular dysfunction, with LVEF declining from approximately 50% to 20%–25%. AV nodal ablation with CRT‐D implantation provided durable ventricular rate control and biventricular pacing.

A novel practical equation for treatment of emergent hypernatremia and dehydration phase in infants
Serum sodium (Na) concentration more than 145 mmol/L is defined as hypernatremia. Hypernatremia carries an acute morbidity and mortality, especially in neonates and infants.
