Epidemiological Profile

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Covid 19 is relevant, however, there are few descriptions and fewer in Peru. Our goal was to describe the epidemiological profile and the factors related to mortality and survival of patients with stage 5 (CKD) on chronic dialysis hospitalized for Covid-19 in a public hospital. Methods: Retrospective case series. Patients with stage 5 CKD, older than 18 years, hospitalized for Covid-19 infection were included. The primary data source was medical records. The clinical and epidemiological profile of the study sample and the factors related to mortality and survival are described. Results: 105 medical records of patients with CKD 5 were evaluated. 57 (54,29%) were male, with a mean age of 58,59 +/- 14,3 years. 84 (80%) patients survived and 21 (20%) died. The main cause of admission to hospitalization was respiratory failure in (80) 76,2%. The hospital stay was 11,76 +/- 7,8 days. In the bivariate analysis: the increase in leukocytes, D dimer, ferritin, CRP, LDH and the decrease in lymphocytes, pH, bicarbonate and PaO2/FiO2 were related to mortality. In the multivariate analysis, only CRP> 10 mg/dl [HR: 10.72 (95% CI 1,4-81,58)] and a PaO2/FiO2 ≤ 150 mmHg [HR: 44,40 (95% CI 5,86-336,06)] they were factors related to poor survival. Conclusions: CRP levels> 10mg/dl and PaO2/FiO2 ≤ 150 mmHg are the main factors related to mortality and poor survival in patients with stage 5 CKD hospitalized for Covid-19. Keywords: Renal Insufficiency, renal dialysis, Coronavirus infections, Covid- 19, survival. (MeSH)

Background New York City (NYC) bore the greatest burden of COVID-19 in the United States early in the pandemic. In this case series, we describe characteristics and outcomes of racially and ethnically diverse patients tested for and hospitalized with COVID-19 in New York City’s public hospital system. Methods We reviewed the electronic health records of all patients who received a SARS-CoV-2 test between March 5 and April 9, 2020, with follow up through April 16, 2020. The primary outcomes were a positive test, hospitalization, and death. Demographics and comorbidities were also assessed. Results 22254 patients were tested for SARS-CoV-2. 13442 (61%) were positive; among those, the median age was 52.7 years (interquartile range [IQR] 39.5–64.5), 7481 (56%) were male, 3518 (26%) were Black, and 4593 (34%) were Hispanic. Nearly half (4669, 46%) had at least one chronic disease (27% diabetes, 30% hypertension, and 21% cardiovascular disease). Of those testing positive, 6248 (46%) were hospitalized. The median age was 61.6 years (IQR 49.7–72.9); 3851 (62%) were male, 1950 (31%) were Black, and 2102 (34%) were Hispanic. More than half (3269, 53%) had at least one chronic disease (33% diabetes, 37% hypertension, 24% cardiovascular disease, 11% chronic kidney disease). 1724 (28%) hospitalized patients died. The median age was 71.0 years (IQR 60.0, 80.9); 1087 (63%) were male, 506 (29%) were Black, and 528 (31%) were Hispanic. Chronic diseases were common (35% diabetes, 37% hypertension, 28% cardiovascular disease, 15% chronic kidney disease). Male sex, older age, diabetes, cardiac history, and chronic kidney disease were significantly associated with testing positive, hospitalization, and death. Racial/ethnic disparities were observed across all outcomes. Conclusions and relevance This is the largest and most racially/ethnically diverse case series of patients tested and hospitalized for COVID-19 in New York City to date. Our findings highlight disparities in outcomes that can inform prevention and testing recommendations.

Drug induced encephalopathy is an established side effect of many drugs when used in a higher dose. Though we do not encounter this side effect frequently in our day to day practice, yet with renal impairment this is not uncommon. Even with a reduced dose many of these can precipitate encephalopathy in this special group of patients. We are presenting here a series of seven such cases of drug induced encephalopathy in patients with renal impairment.Birdem Med J 2018; 8(2): 172-176

Abstract: Anemia is a complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) that often occurs. Moreover, it can occur earlier than other complications of CKD in almost all patients with late stage kidney disease. This study was aimed to obtain the profile of anemia in subjects with stage 4 and 5 of chronic kidney disease. This was a retrospective and descriptive study using medical records of patients with CKD associated with anemia for two years. The results showed that of 428 CKD patients, 131 suffered from anemia (30.60%). The majority of patients were female (54.19%), age range 60-69 years (44.27%), non-dialysis stage 5 of CKD patients (74.04%), had sufficient iron status (79.38%). However, 15,26% of the 131 patients got blood transfusion therapy. In conclusion, the majority of CKD patients were stage 5 ND, female, age range of 60-69 years, had sufficient iron status, and were not treated with blood transfusion.Keywords: chronic kidney disease, anemia Abstrak: Anemia merupakan komplikasi penyakit ginjal kronik (PGK) yang sering terjadi, bahkan dapat terjadi lebih awal dibandingkan komplikasi PGK lainnya dan hampir pada semua pasien penyakit ginjal tahap akhir.

Objective: To determine the effect of subcutaneous recombinant human erythropoietin on blood pressure in predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Study Design: Case-series descriptive study. Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital Peshawar, from Mar 2016 to Sep 2016. Methodology: A total of 100 cases were enrolled. Inclusion criteria was patients of 18 to 60 years of both gender & estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 having Hb <10g/dL and pre-dialysis while Exclusion Criteria was pregnancy or lactation, BP more than 140/90 mmHg, patients on Haemodialysis and worsening renal function. Baseline BP, body weight and eGFR of anaemic chronic kidney disease patients were recorded prior to EPO Alpha therapy. Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) i.e. EPO Alpha (50-100 Units/kg thrice or once weekly) was administered subcutaneously. Subsequent blood pressure, body weight and eGFR monitoring was done after 2 and 4 weeks post EPO Alpha injection. Results: Mean age range was 46.71 years with range of 20-60 years, 73 (73%) were male while 27 (27%) werefemales. Mean ± SD for other quantitative variables like eGFR was 23.12 ± 5.28, Hb levels (g/dL) was 8.62 ± 0.85,Weight (kg) was 56.66 ± 6.62 and duration of CKD was 9.87 ± 4.02. Frequency of Hypertension (post EPO) was 2(2%) and p-value was 0.453. Conclusion: We concluded that the frequency of hypertension in pre-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPo) subcutaneously (SC) in low doses, is very low, so rhEPo can be used subcutaneously......................

Background: Preeclampsia with severe features is an endothelial disease that causes renal system disorders during pregnancy. Preeclampsia is an important cause of acute kidney injury and risk for chronic kidney disease. Methods: This study was a case series conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan, Indonesia starting from December 2019 until January 2020. Total sampling technique was employed obtaining 31 subjects with a history of preeclampsia with severe features for at least 3 months to 2 years postpartum, without a history of chronic disease, diabetes mellitus, and congenital kidney disorders. Proteinuria, serum creatinine, and GFR calculations were performed. Results: There were 31 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. At a time interval of 4 - ≤13 months postpartum, 2 levels of proteinuria +1 (0-2), serum creatinine 0.81 ± 0.21 mg/dl, and levels of GFR 109.57 ± 25.13 (ml/min/1.73 m ). Whereas at the time interval of >13 - 24 months postpartum, levels of proteinuria +1 (0-3), serum creatinine 0.85 ± 0.23 mg/dl, and GFR 2 levels of 104. 41 ± 28.45 (ml/min/1.73 m ). The mean of serum creatinine before delivery was 0.69 ± 0.15 mg/dl and after delivery was 0.83 ± 0.22 mg/dl. The mean of GFR postpartum at group of history of early onset preeclampsia was 103.07 ± 25.23 2 2 (ml/min/1.73 m ) and group of history of late onset preeclampsia was 113.40 ± 28.24 (ml/min/1.73 m ). Conclusion: There was a tendency for a decrease in renal function among women with a history of preeclampsia with severe features with ndings of persistent proteinuria from more than 3 to 24 months postpartum, an increase in mean of serum creatinine levels from before and after delivery and a decrease in GFR, but it was not signicant. This was related to the slow course of chronic kidney disease, so it had to be followed up periodically.

Background: Adverse safety events (ASE) during hospitalization may contribute to renal decline or poor outcomes. Understanding factors contributing to ASE in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is limited. The objective is to compare differences and determine predictors of renal pertinent ASE in discharges for CKD. Method: A cross-sectional analysis of the National Inpatient Sample, Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality 2012 data. The study included adults age ≥18 years with discharge diagnosis for CKD stages 1–4, excluding cancer of the kidney and renal pelvis, renal transplant, end-stage renal disease. Predictors included study sample characteristics, including patient demographics, comorbidity, and hospitalization-related variables. Outcomes assessed included distribution of ASE (angioedema, confusion, muscle weakness or cramps, lower extremity edema (LEE), falls, hypoglycemia, nausea-vomiting-diarrhea (NVD), and skin rash), mean total charge per hospital event, and length-of-stay. The analytical approach used descriptive statistics (means and proportions) and bivariate analysis to compare differences (ASE versus none). Predictors of ASE were explored using multivariate logistic regression. Results: 10.3% of inpatient discharges for CKD showed an ASE. Mean charges (USD 48,072 vs. 46,996), days length-of-stay (6.8 vs. 5.7), number of diagnosis on record (6.8 vs. 5.7), geographical region (Midwest, and West), and type of hospital (rural) were significantly associated with ASE. Most common ASEs were confusion (18%), LEE (21.3%), and NVD (50.7%). Odds of ASE increased for age, female gender, rural hospitals, geographical region, and diagnosis for anemia, coagulopathies, depression, fluid and electrolyte disorders, neurological disorders, psychoses, and weight loss. Conclusions: We identified key factors that increase the risk of ASE in patients with CKD. Opportunities exist to reduce ASE in CKD.
