... incidence of AKI-related mortality was 93.2 per 1,000 person-years. Poor outcome was associated with breathlessness, hyponatremia, and leukocytosis. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed 81% (CI: 74–87%) survival after 5 years of AKI. On Cox proportional-hazards analysis, the absence of breathlessness (HR...

... of serum sodium levels on mortality in patients receiving CRRT is limited. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the associations of serum sodium levels before and during CRRT on mortality among critically ill patients requiring CRRT.

...Guy Decaux Background: Chronic hyponatremia has been reported to be associated with low solute intake and low creatinine excretion (reflecting likely sarcopenia). We wanted to study the effect, on the long term, of correction of hyponatremia on solute and creatinine excretion in chronic SIADH...

...Wim Musch; Guy Decaux Background/AIMS: Hyponatremia secondary to distal diuretics intake could have a biochemical picture similar to the one observed in the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). In these patients, water retention is considered to be the main causal...

...: hyponatremia ( n = 54), hypobicarbonatemia ( n = 18), hyperkalemia ( n = 14), hyperbicarbonatemia ( n = 6), hypochloremia ( n = 3), hypokalemia ( n = 3), and hyperchloremia ( n = 1). None of the patients was found to be hypernatremic. Patients with and without electrolyte or acid-base abnormalities did...

...Kyuzi Kamoi We describe a 78-year-old female patient with severe hyponatremia owing to inappropriate antidiuresis. Despite hyponatremia, the urinary sodium excretion persisted with urine osmolality exceeding plasma osmolality. Although a water load decreased plasma sodium concentration...

... A case of isolated ACTH deficiency with hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism, presenting severe hyponatremia, is described. A 57-year-old man complaining of nausea, vomiting and fatigability was admitted to our hospital because of hyponatremia (114 mEq/l). The low levels of serum cortisol and urinary...

... (PTA). He initially presented with severe hyponatremia, hypokalemia, polyuria, transient proteinuria and weight loss. This phenomenon is known to occur in patients with renovascular and malignant hypertension, called hyponatremic hypertensive syndrome, but was thought to be rare in children...

.... We report the case of a man infected by human immunodeficiency virus who developed a disseminated herpes varicella-zoster virus infection and symptoms due to hyponatremia caused by antidiuretic hormone excess. The patient was cured with saline hypertonic infusion, water restriction, and intravenous...

... pacing (265 impulses/min., 10–14 days). In 7 untreated dogs, pacing progressively lowered aortic flow by 44% and induced hyponatremia and elevations of plasma urea, creatinine, and potassium. Treatment with enalapril (n = 7) during pacing reduced the decrease in aortic flow by 33% and prevented changes...

Pennec; Jean-François Morin; Jean-Pierre Codet; Bernard Bourbigot; Michel Garre; Gabriel Le Menn Eleven episodes of severe hyponatremia secondary to hiccup-induced potomania were recorded in 3 years in a man who had essential hypertension, a low protein intake and a normal...

... Words Hyponatremia Antidiuretic hormone Urea Osmotic diuresis Abstract We report the case of a patient with an idiopathic syndrome of inappropriate secretion of ADH for more than 6 years. Water restriction was effective only during hospital care but was socially difficult to maintain at home, so...

...G. Decaux; P. Mols; P. Cauchie; B. Flamion; F. Delwiche We have studied the efficacy of urea in the treatment of hyponatremia and hydrosaline retention in cirrhotic patients with ascites resistant to diuretics. In 5 patients with hyponatremia and ascites resistant to a major diuretic treatment (200...

...G. Decaux We studied the efficacy of long loop diuretics in the treatment of hyponatremia associated with inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) in 12 patients, and in 2 healthy volunteers with Pitressin®-induced SIADH.
