Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and clinically relevant problem in critically ill patients. Various randomized controlled trials (RCT) have attempted to assess potentially beneficial treatments for AKI. Different approaches to applying the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria for AKI make a comparison of studies difficult. The objective of this study was
Background. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common serious problem affecting critically ill patients in intensive care unit (ICU). It increases their morbidity, mortality, length of ICU stay, and long-term risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods. A retrospective study was carried out in a tertiary hospital in Jordan. Medical records of patients admitted to the medical ICU
For long-term gout treatment, the recommended starting dose of allopurinol is 100 mg daily, to be escalated by 100 mg every 2 to 5 weeks until the target serum uric acid is achieved. American College of Rheumatology recommends target uric acid of less than 6.0 mg/dL for all patients with gout and less than 5.0 mg/dL in patients with tophaceous

Initial efforts toward standardizing the definition of AKI through the use of the RIFLE (risk, injury, failure, loss of kidney function, and end-stage kidney disease [ESKD]) criteria came from the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative in 2002 6 and were subsequently modified by the Acute Kidney Injury Network. 7 The 2012 Kidney Disease: Improving 10.1681/ASN.2008070669. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and devastating medical condition, but no widely accepted definition exists. A recent classification system by the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative (RIFLE) defines AKI largely by percentage increases in serum creatinine (SCr) over baseline. The Acute Kidney Injury Network defines Acute pyelonephritis is a bacterial infection causing inflammation of the kidneys and is one of the most common diseases of the kidney. Pyelonephritis occurs as a complication of an ascending urinary tract infection (UTI) which spreads from the bladder to the kidneys and their collecting systems. Symptoms usually include fever, flank pain, nausea, vomiting, burning on urination, increased Anaphylaxis is a common medical emergency and a life-threatening acute hypersensitivity reaction. It can be defined as a rapidly evolving, generalized, multi-system allergic reaction. Without treatment, anaphylaxis is often fatal due to its rapid progression to respiratory collapse. Historically, anaphylactic reactions were categorized as IgE-mediated responses, while anaphylactoid reactions Anuria is the absence of urine production, defined as a urine output of fewer than 100 milliliters per day. A healthy individual produces between 800 and 2000 milliliters of urine daily, depending on their hydration level. When urine production is reduced dramatically, it is called oliguria, a urine output of fewer than 500 mL per day or less Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome characterized by a sudden decline in or loss of kidney function. AKI is not only associated with substantial morbidity and mortality but also with increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). AKI is classically defined and staged based on serum creatinine concentration and urine output rates. The etiology of AKI is conceptually Background: Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a common complication in patients receiving intravascular contrast media. In 2020, the American College of Radiology and the National Kidney Foundation issued a new contrast induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) criteria. Therefore, we aimed to explore the potential risk factors for CIN under the new criteria, and develop a predictive model for

Acute kidney injury (AKI) describes a heterogeneous group of conditions, without specification of their etiology and diagnosed only by indirect markers of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), such as serum creatinine and urine output. Bedside estimation of GFR and detection of structural alterations with novel biomarkers, and stress tests have more recently been developed. These novel findings define AKI and the staging system. The definition of AKI is an abrupt increase in SCr of 0.3 mg/dL over baseline within 48 hours, a 50% or greater increase in SCr within 7 days, or urinary output of less than 0.5 mL/kg/hour for more than 6 hours. Studies had shown significantly increased mortal-
