    Abstract Sepsis and septic shock remain drivers for morbidity and mortality in critical illness. The clinical picture of patients presenting with these syndromes evolves rapidly and may be characterised by: (a) microbial host invasion, (b) establishment of an infection focus, (c) opsonisation of bacterial products (e.g. lipopolysaccharide), (d) recognition of pathogens resulting in an immune response, (e) cellular and humoral effects of circulating pathogen and pathogen products, (f) immunodysregulation and endocrine effects of cytokines, (g) endothelial and organ damage, and (h) organ crosstalk and multiple organ dysfunction. Each step may be a potential target for a specific therapeutic approach. At various stages, extracorporeal therapies may target circulating molecules for removal. In sequence, we could consider: (a) pathogen removal from the circulation with affinity binders and cartridges (specific), (b) circulating endotoxin removal by haemoperfusion with polymyxin B adsorbers (specific), (c) cytokine removal by haemoperfusion with sorbent cartridges or adsorbing membranes (non-specific), (d) extracorporeal organ support with different techniques for respiratory and cardiac support (CO

    Abstract Complete resolution of hypertension (CRH) after adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism is far from a certainty. Although several prognostic models have been proposed to predict outcome after adrenalectomy, studies have not clarified which of the available models can be used reliably in clinical practice. To identify, describe and appraise all prognostic models developed to predict CRH, and meta-analyse their predictive performances. We searched MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science for development and validation studies of prognostic models. After selection, we extracted descriptive statistics and aggregated area under the receiver operator curve (AUC) using meta-analysis. From 25 eligible studies, we identified 12 prognostic models used for predicting CRH after total adrenalectomy in primary aldosteronism. We report the results for 3 models that had available data from at least 3 external validation studies: the primary aldosteronism surgical outcome (PASO) score (AUC: 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.74-0.86; 95% predictive interval [PI]: 0.04-1.00), Utsumi nomogram (AUC: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.72-0.85; 95% PI: 0.03-1.00) and the aldosteronoma resolution score (ARS) model (AUC: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.74-0.80; 95% PI: 0.59-0.86 for all studies and AUC: 0.80; 95% CI: 0.75-0.85; 95% PI: 0.57-0.93 for the studies with the same adrenal vein sampling-guided adrenalectomy rate compared to the models meta-analysed). The PASO score, Utsumi nomogram and ARS model showed comparable discrimination performance to predict CRH in primary aldosteronism. Unlike the ARS model, the number of external validation studies for the PASO score and the Utsumi nomogram was relatively low to draw definite conclusions.

    Abstract Congestive nephropathy is an underappreciated manifestation of cardiorenal syndrome and is characterized by a potentially reversible kidney dysfunction caused by a reduced renal venous outflow secondary to right-sided heart failure or intra-abdominal hypertension. To date, the histological diagnostic criteria for congestive nephropathy have not been defined. We herein report a case of acute renal dysfunction following cardiac allograft failure and present a review of the relevant literature to elucidate the current understanding of the disease. Our case demonstrated that congestion-driven nephropathy may be histopathologically characterized by markedly dilated veins and peritubular capillaries, focally accentuated low-grade acute tubular damage, small areas of interstitial fibrosis, and tubular atrophy on a background of normal glomeruli and predominantly normal tubular cell differentiation.

    Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a heterogeneous syndrome with multiple etiologies. It occurs frequently in the neurocritical intensive care unit and is associated with greater morbidity and mortality. In this scenario, AKI alters the kidney-brain axis, exposing patients who receive habitual dialytic management to greater injury. Various therapies have been designed to mitigate this risk. Priority has been placed by KDIGO guidelines on the use of continuous over intermittent acute kidney replacement therapies (AKRT). On this background, continuous therapies have a pathophysiological rationale in patients with acute brain injury. A low-efficiency therapy such as PD and CRRT could achieve optimal clearance control and potentially reduce the risk of secondary brain injury. Therefore, this work will review the evidence on peritoneal dialysis as a continuous AKRT in neurocritical patients, describing its benefits and risks so it may be considered as an option when deciding among available therapeutic options.

    Abstract Recent advances have improved our understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI). So far, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome guidelines define and stratify kidney injury based on increases in serum creatinine level and/or decreases in urine output. Although the term AKI acknowledges the existence of cellular injury, its diagnosis is still only defined by the reduced excretory function of the kidney. New biomarkers that aid a better understanding of the relationship between acute tubular injury and kidney dysfunction have been identified, reflecting the advances in molecular biology. The expression of some of these novel biomarkers precedes changes in conventional biomarkers or can increase their predictive power. Therefore, they might enhance the clinical accuracy of the definition of AKI. This review summarizes the limitations of the current AKI classification and a panel of candidate biomarkers for augmenting AKI classification and recognition of AKI subphenotypes. We expect that the integration of appropriately selected biomarkers in routine clinical practice can improve AKI care.

    Abstract Recently, a new full-age spectrum equation was proposed by the European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) to overcome the difficulty of using multiple glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation equations and problems of implausible changes in GFR during the transition from adolescence to adulthood and address GFR overestimation in young adults and in the older adults. To verify the impact on patient classifications, we applied the new equation to data of 38,188 adult patients, comparing GFR estimation using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) and EKFC equations. As expected, our data indicate that a significant proportion of patients will be reclassified downward by the EKFC compared to the CKD-EPI equation with a particular reference between CKD stages 1-2 and 2-3 and age categories of 18-30 and ≥61 years, respectively. Clinicians should be aware that any replacement for the EKFC equation will entail a period of different results in estimated GFR during the transition from the previous to the new equation.

    Abstract Inflammation is common in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and contributes to increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The central nervous system plays an important role in the immune and inflammatory pathways of AKI. In this review, we discuss the preclinical evidence for the neural pathways associated with neuromodulation in AKI, as well as clinical trials that translate these observations into the clinical context. The ultimate goal of these trials is to design strategies using noninvasive approaches, such as splenic pulsed ultrasonography, to prevent or attenuate inflammatory conditions at the bedside, including AKI.

    Abstract The history of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is marked by technological advances linked to improvements in the knowledge of the mechanisms and kinetics of extracorporeal removal of solutes, and the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI) and other critical illnesses. In the present article, we review the main steps in the history of CRRT, from the discovery of continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration to its evolution into the current treatments and its early use in the treatment of AKI, to the novel sequential extracorporeal therapy. Beyond the technological advances, we describe the development of new medical specialties and a shared nomenclature to support clinicians and researchers in the broad and still evolving field of CRRT.
