Incidence of morbidity and mortality in trauma patients with hypokalemia

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Critical Care Medicine
Background Following trauma, hypokalemia was frequently observed, and it was assumed that those who were more seriously injured experienced hypokalemia more frequently. Improved monitoring and treatment could lower the likelihood of adverse events if the

Survival Outcomes by Frailty and Comorbidities in Veterans Treated With Abiraterone and Enzalutamide for Metastatic Castration‐Resistant Prostate Cancer

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) such as abiraterone and enzalutamide are common therapies in the management of metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, the comparative effectiveness of these oral ARPIs in frail and comorbid patient populations remains uncertain.

Hyperkalemia/Hypokalemia

open access: yes, 2017
Disorders of potassium regulation (hyperkalemia/hypokalemia) are common in clinical medicine. Patients with neuromuscular disorders may develop hyperkalemia in response to inhaled, halogenated anesthetics and/or succinylcholine.

A case of hypokalemia-induced bidirectional ventricular tachycardia

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Background Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BVT) is a rare, but serious, arrhythmia. Hypokalemia is commonly found in clinical practice, but hypokalemia-induced BVT has rarely been reported.

Hypokalemia and arrhythmias

open access: yesThe American Journal of Medicine, 1986
The focus of this article is hypokalemia, its electrophysiologic properties, and clinical arrhythmias. The effects of potassium on the electrophysiologic properties of the heart have been extensively studied and clearly are arrhythmogenic. Hypokalemia increases resting membrane potential and increases both the duration of the action potential and the ...

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Interactions Between Anti‐Asthma Drugs and Medicinal Plants: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Asthma affects 260–300 million people worldwide. About 20%–35% of patients use medicinal plants with their asthma medication, often without telling their clinicians. Disclosure rates are low; up to 42% of asthma outpatients use herbal products, with no records in their charts.
