1. Factors affecting the clinical outcomes in pediatric post-cardiotomy patients requiring perioperative peritoneal dialysis
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Fluid overload is associated with increased mortality and morbidity in pediatric cardiac surgery. In the pediatric age group, peritoneal dialysis might improve postoperative outcome with avoiding fluid overload and electrolyte imbalance. It preserves hemodynamic status with the advantage of passive drainage. In this study, we are reportin

2. Relationship between dialysis quality and brain compliance in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD): a cross-sectional study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The high number of patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis makes it necessary to conduct studies aimed at improving their quality of life. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate brain compliance, using the Brain4care method for intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring, among patients with ESRD before and at the end of the hemodial

3. Combined Heart and Kidney Transplantation: Initial Clinical Experience
ABSTRACT Introduction: Combined solid organ transplantation is infrequently performed in Brazil. The objective of this article is to present our initial experience with combined heart and kidney transplantation. Methods: From January 2007 to December 2019, four patients were submitted to combined heart and kidney transplantation. Their mean age was 55.7±4

4. Association between frailty and depression among hemodialysis patients: a cross-sectional study
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Frailty is consensually understood to be a clinical syndrome in which minimal stressors can lead to negative outcomes such as hospitalization, early institutionalization, falls, functional loss and death. Frailty is more prevalent among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and those on dialysis are the frailest. Depression contri

5. Parathyroid hormone levels after parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The parathormone level after parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients are of interest. Low levels may require cryopreserved tissue implantation; however, the resection is necessary in case of recurrence. We analyzed post parathyroidectomy parathormone levels in renal hyperparathyroidism. METHODS: Prospective observation of postoperative pa

6. Abdominal ultrasound augments the medical students’ ability to identify free intraabdominal fluid
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Free intra-abdominal fluid describes an accumulation of free fluid in the peritoneal cavity. It has different etiologies, but it frequently constitutes a meaningful clinical sign. In this study, the authors interrogate whether abdominal ultrasound augments the medical students’ ability to identify free intra-abdominal fluid. METHODS: T

7. Method for Cleaning Back-Produced Water from Polymer Flooding Operations to Determine Polymer Molar Mass Using Size-Exclusion Chromatography
One of the methods used by the oil industry to increase production is to inject water, containing polymer, into the reservoir. The viscosity of the aqueous solution is primarily responsible for the efficiency of this method, and is achieved using polymers with high molar mass. However, polymer degradation can occur during pumping and fluid displacement in th

8. Panacea, placebo or poison? Genetically guided treatment for depression
Objective: Depression is highly prevalent in hemodialysis patients, but few studies have evaluated older hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of depression, its associated factors and its impact on quality of life in an older population on hemodialysis. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study including 173 hemodialy

9. Depression and quality of life in older adults on hemodialysis
Objective: Depression is highly prevalent in hemodialysis patients, but few studies have evaluated older hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of depression, its associated factors and its impact on quality of life in an older population on hemodialysis. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study including 173 hemodialy

10. Renal osteodystrophy and clinical outcomes: data from the Brazilian Registry of Bone Biopsies - REBRABO
RESUMO Introdução: Os distúrbios minerais e ósseos (DMO) são importantes complicações da doença renal crônica (DRC) associadas à desfechos adversos. O Registro Brasileiro de Biópsia Óssea (REBRABO) é um banco de dados eletrônico que inclui dados sobre osteodistrofia renal (OR). Nosso objetivo foi descrever o perfil epidemiológico da OR em uma

11. Does Cystatin C have a role as metabolic surrogate in peritoneal dialysis beyond its association with residual renal function?
RESUMO Introdução: Tem sido sugerido que os níveis de cistatina C são modificados pela obesidade e inflamação. Além disso, a cistatina C tem sido associada a eventos cardiovasculares e desfechos de mortalidade. Objetivo: Estudar a associação da cistatina C com o perfil metabólico e doença cardiovascular de pacientes em diálise peritoneal. Mét
