Iodinated contrast nephropathy (ICN) is increasingly encountered in interventional cardiology. It is the third most common cause of acute renal failure in hospitals, after functional renal failure and drug-induced causes. It is a formidable complication that can hamper clinical prognosis and make subsequent management of patients more difficult. Several factors can predict the occurrence of this entity. The aim of this study is to identify factors predictive of the occurrence of nephropathy associated with iodinated contrast media in cardiology.Methodology: This is a retrospective study of...

Arterial stiffness, assessed by measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV), has rarely been studied in hemodialysis patients. This is a population in which the classic cardiovascular risk factors prevail, to which are added factors specific to uremia. The aim of our work was to detail the classic factors determining pulse wave velocity (PWV). Our population comprised 38 patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis via arteriovenous fistula or jugular catheter. The mean duration of hemodialysis was 29.21±24.56. The mean age was 49±13 years (16-78 years). Twelve patients were hypertensive (31.6%). Mean...

Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome is a glomerular nephropathy defined by abundant proteinuria associated with hypoalbuminemia, without renal inflammatory lesions or deposits of circulating immune complexes.In fact, several clinical and therapeutic arguments make NIS an immune disease in which the kidney is the exclusive functional target. The progressive use of cytotoxic immunosuppressants such as nitrogen mustards, inhibitors of lymphocyte activation such as calcineurin antagonists, and inhibitors of lymphocyte proliferation such as mycophenolic acid in the relapse prevention strategy for...

Die Nephropathie durch jodhaltige Kontrastmittel (ICPN) wird in der interventionellen Kardiologie immer häufiger angetroffen. Sie ist nach der funktionellen Niereninsuffizienz und medikamentösen Ursachen die dritthäufigste Ursache für akutes Nierenversagen in Krankenhäusern. Sie stellt eine gefürchtete Komplikation dar, die die klinische Prognose beeinträchtigen und die weitere Betreuung der Patienten erschweren kann. Es gibt mehrere Faktoren, die das Auftreten dieser Entität vorhersagen können. Ziel der Arbeit: Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Prädiktoren für das Auftreten einer...
