ABSTRACT

La glomerulonefritis rápidamente progresiva mediada por complejos inmunes (GMNRP II) es un síndrome clínico caracterizado por el rápido deterioro de la función renal asociado a hematuria, edemas y oliguria. Histológicamente se manifiesta como una glomerulonefritis crescéntica, con la presencia de depósitos granulares en la inmunofluorescencia. Aunque es una enfermedad rara, es grave y puede evolucionar a una enfermedad renal crónica, por lo cual es fundamental su identificación temprana. A continuación, se presenta una revisión sobre este tipo de glomerulonefritis, con énfasis en su etiología y en las opciones terapéuticas existentes en la actualidad


Rapidly progressive immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (RPGNMN II) is a clinical syndrome characterized by severe deterioration of renal function associated with hematuria, edema, and oliguria. It is histologically characterized as a crescentic glomerulonephritis, with the presence of granular deposits on immunofluorescence. Although it is a rare condition, it is a potentially serious disease that may progress to chronic renal disease, therefore its early identification is essential. Here we present a review of this form of glomerulonephritis, with emphasis on its etiology and the currently available therapeutic options

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Debido a que la alteración electrolítica en la enfermedad renal crónica más importante es la hipercalemia, se realizó una revisión de la bibliografía respecto del tratamiento de la misma en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica en terapia dialítica. Se analizaron artículos seleccionados en PubMed Central, EBSCO, Medlineplus, SciELO bajo el título hiperkalemia, hyperkalemia management, hyperkalemia treatment e hiperkalemia aguda y crónica (causa, epidemiología, métodos diagnósticos y métodos de tratamientos clásicos y actuales). Se analizaron diversos artículos de revisión y artículos de tratamiento en etapa prediálisis y en terapia dialítica; se analizaron los artículos que definieron la hipercalemia como la elevación mayor a 5 mEq/L en suero y que consideraron causa la excesiva ingesta de potasio, el desplazamiento extracelular y la alteración en la eliminación de potasio en los riñones, incluidas las manifestaciones clínicas y de laboratorio. Tambien se incluyó el análisis de artículos que asociaron la hipercalemia con la aparición de la insuficiencia renal, insuficiencia cardiaca y con la administración de medicamentos, incluidos los inhibidores del sistema renina angiotensina aldosterona, diuréticos ahorradores de potasio y antinflamatorios no esteroides. Las opciones de tratamiento de la hipercalemia en la enfermedad renal crónica continúan siendo limitadas a pesar del desarrollo de nuevos medicamentos, por lo que el objetivo del tratamiento en la hipercalemia aguda y crónica es revertir los efectos adversos principalmente en el corazón, desplazando el potasio a nivel intracelular, eliminando el potasio a nivel corporal, disminuyendo los síntomas y normalizando las concentraciones séricas del mismo.


Abstract Since the most important electrolytic alteration in chronic kidney disease is hyperkalemia, a review of the literature was conducted in the management of renal hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease and in dialysis therapy. Analysis of selected articles in PubMed Central, EBSCO, Medlineplus, SciELO under the title hyperkalemia, hyperkalemia management, hyperkalemia treatment and acute and chronic hyperkalemia (etiology, epidemiology, diagnostic methods and methods of classic and current treatments). Various review articles and treatment articles were analyzed in the pre-dialysis and dialysis stages. The articles that defined hyperkalemia as an elevation greater than 5 mEq/L in serum were analyzed and considered the etiology of excessive potassium intake, extracellular displacement and alteration in the elimination of potassium at the renal level, including clinical and laboratory manifestations. Also included was the analysis of articles that associated hyperkalemia with the development of renal failure, heart failure and with the use of drugs including renin angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitors, potassium-sparing diuretics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Treatment options for hyperkalemia in chronic kidney disease continue to be limited despite the development of new drugs, so the goal of treatment in both acute and chronic hyperkalemia is to reverse adverse effects primarily at the cardiac level, potassium at the intracellular level, eliminating the potassium at the corporal level, diminishing the symptoms and normalizing the serum concentrations of the same.

ABSTRACT

Las dermatosis perforantes (DP), o enfermedades por eliminación transepidérmica, son un grupo de enfermedades heterogéneas caracterizadas por una erupción pápulo nodular con extrusión de material dérmico alterado a través de la epidermis. Primariamente su clasificación se basó en la naturaleza del material eliminado y el tipo de perforación (transepidérmica o transfolicular) y se las denominó dermatosis perforantes clásicas, e incluía al elastoma perforante serpiginoso, la colagenosisperforante reactiva, la foliculitis perforante y la enfermedad de Kyrle. La etiopatogenia de la dermatosis perforante adquirida (DPA)es desconocida, presentando una fuerte asociación con traumatismos leves, insuficiencia renal crónica y diabetes mellitus y, con menor frecuencia, con endocrinopatías, enfermedades infectocontagiosas y neoplasias, entre otras. En cuanto al tratamiento, la DPA es una dermatosis de difícil control, con gran tendencia a la recurrencia y cronicidad. Presentamos un caso de DPA, en un paciente masculino de 35 años de edad asociado a diabetes e insuficiencia renal crónica.


Perforating dermatoses (DP), or diseases by transepidermal elimination, are a group of heterogeneous diseases characterized by a papulo-nodular rash with extrusion of altered dermal material through the epidermis. Classification was based primarily on the nature of the material removed and the type of drilling (transepidermal or transfollicular) calling them classic perforating dermatosis, which included perforating serpiginous elastoma, reactive perforating collagenosis, perforating folliculitis, and Kyrle’s disease. Pathogenesis of acquired perforating dermatosis (APD) is unknown, presenting a strong association with minor injuries, chronic renal failure and diabetes mellitus and, less frequently, endocrine or infectious diseases and neoplasms, among others. Treatment is difficult, with great tendency to recurrence and chronicity. A 35-year-old male with DPA associated with diabetes and chronic kidney failure is reported.

ABSTRACT

La presente investigación fundamenta en la clínica psicoanalítica el estudio de dos casos de tres personas diagnosticadas con IRT que reciben tratamiento de hemodiálisis, en razón a que dadas las características y el aumento de los reportes que se presentan, ya esto se considera un problema de salud pública. El objetivo principal es describir las características dinámicas del proceso de duelo en pacientes con IRT en un centro de terapia renal de la ciudad de Cartagena. El procedimiento metodológico empleó un diseño de tipo cualitativo; la investigación se desarrolló con un diseño clínico mediante el estudio de casos, y fundamentada en la hermenéutica psicoanalítica. Todo esto respaldado en la historia clínica, la entrevista semiestructurada individual y familiar, los test proyectivos, test del dibujo de la figura humana Machover y TAT de Murray, para la debida integración de los análisis. Se concluye que predominan funciones fallidas de los progenitores y que son individuos provenientes de familias psicosomáticas, que utilizan la enfermedad para obtener un beneficio secundario.


The present investigation, is based on psychoanalytic Clinic, through the study of two cases of three patients diagnosed with TRI receiving hemodyalisis treatment, having into account the increase of the cases and the characteristics of its presentation it is now considered a public health problem. The main aim is to describe the dynamic characteristics of the process of mourning in patients with TRI in renal therapy center of the city of Cartagena (Colombia). The methodology used for this research was through a qualitative type design. This research was developed with a clinical design through case studies, based on psychoanalytic hermeneutics, all this backed in the clinical history, the semi-structured individual and familiar interviews, The projective test of the drawing of the human figure Machover and TPT of Murray, analyzing their integration. We conclude the dominance of failed functions of parents, and that they are individuals from psychosomatic families, that use their illness to obtain secondary profits.

ABSTRACT

El terremoto/tsunami grado 8,8 en la escala de Richter que afectó a nuestro país el 27 de febrero/2010, junto con provocar la pérdida de vidas humanas y cuantiosos daños materiales, dejó en evidencia la escasa preparación de la red de salud para enfrentar esta emergencia y especialmente lo relacionado con la terapia de diálisis. De los 1644 pacientes en hemodiálisis crónica en la Región del Bíobío, se registraron seis fallecidos (0,36 por ciento) en el período post catástrofe inmediato. Hubo pocos casos de rabdomiolisis por aplastamiento con insuficiencia renal aguda, y ninguno requirió apoyode diálisis. En el programa de peritoneo diálisis crónica ambulatoria no se reportaron casos de pacientes fallecidos. El presente informe reporta la situación de la terapia de diálisis y sus dificultades durante la catástrofe en la región, las acciones que contribuyeron a su rápida normalización y nuestras propuestas para elaborar en Chile un plan de diálisis en emergencias.


The 8.8ª Richter´s scale earthquake/tsunami which took placein Chile in February 27th, 2010, together with the loss of human lives and a large list of damaged materials, left evidence on the scarce preparation in the health public system to face this emergency and, especially, all which is related to hemodialysis therapy. Considering the 1644 patients in chronic dialysis in Bío-Bío Region, it was registered six deceases (0.36 percent) in the immediate post-catastrophe period. There were few cases of rhabdomyolysis, due to the flattening with acute renal deficiency and none of them required dialysis support. In the ambulatory chronic peritoneum dialysis program, deceases were not reported. The present report informs the situation of the dialysis therapy and its difficulties during the catastrophe in the region, the actions that contributed to its fast normalization and the proposals to make an emergency dialysis program in Chile.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Hemodialysis (HD)-related headaches are a common complaint of patients undergoing this procedure. OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency and clinical characteristics of headache in patients undergoing HD and to discuss their diagnostic criteria. METHOD: The present study assessed, in a prospective manner, a series of patients consulting at a HD center in Aracaju, Sergipe, Brazil, from November 2007 to January 2008. Only patients with HD-related headaches without previous history of primary headache were diagnosed as isolated HD headache (HDH). RESULTS: Headache was reported by 76.1 percent of the patients studied. Prior to beginning dialysis, 47.9 percent had migraine without aura, 6.7 percent migraine with aura, 0.6 percent hemiplegic migraine, 5 percent episodic tension-type headache, and 2.5 percent migraine and tension-type headache. HDH was diagnosed in 6.7 percent of the patients, the most prevalent features being diffuse or temporal region location, bilateral headache, throbbing nature, and moderate severity. Seven patients with headaches between the sessions were not classified. CONCLUSION: While the pathophysiology of HDH is unknown, to diagnose patients with HDH or other possible HD-related headaches remains a challenge.


Cefaléias relacionadas ao programa de hemodiálise é uma queixa comum. OBJETIVO: Determinar freqüência e características clínicas das cefaléias em pacientes em regime de hemodiálise e discutir critérios diagnósticos. MÉTODO: Foi feita uma avaliação clínica prospectiva de pacientes cefalêicos em um serviço de hemodiálise em Aracaju, Sergipe, Brasil, de novembro de 2007 a janeiro de 2008. Apenas pacientes sem antecedente de cefaléia primária receberam diagnóstico de cefaléia da diálise isolada. RESULTADOS: Cefaléia esteve presente em 76,1 por cento dos pacientes estudados. Como antecedente de cefaléia, 47,9 por cento tinham migrânea sem aura, 6,7 por cento migrânea com aura, 0,6 por cento migrânea hemiplégica, 5,5 por cento cefaléia tensional episódica, e 2,5 por cento associação de migrânea e cefaléia tensional. A cefaléia da diálise isolada foi diagnosticada em 6,7 por cento dos pacientes e as localizações difusas e temporais, cefaléia bilateral, pulsátil, e intensidade moderada foram as características mais prevalentes. CONCLUSÃO: Enquanto a fisiopatologia da cefaléia da diálise for desconhecida, o diagnostico da cefaléia da diálise ou de outras possíveis cefaléias relacionadas à diálise permanecerá um desafio.
