Item type:Publication, Impact of preoperative arterial and venous diameter on achievement of the adequate blood flow in arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis(Wiley, 2020-06); ; ; ; An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) remains the best choice of vascular access (VA) for hemodialysis (HD). The aim of the study was to determine the factors associated with the achievement of adequate blood flow (BF) of AVFs at the 4th week after creation. Created AVFs in 63 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4/5 and CKD stage 5 on hemodialysis (CKD5D) were analyzed in a prospective study. Doppler ultrasound (DUS) was used for measuring the diameter of the radial artery, the brachial artery and the cephalic vein before AVF creation. The BF of AVF was calculated by DUS at the 4th week after creation and adequate BF was defined as ≥ 600 mL/min. The average age of patients was 61.31 ± 12.9 years. An adequate BF of AVF at the 4th week after creation was achieved in 43.54% of patients. The BF of AVF measured in male patients was significantly higher compared to the BF of AVF obtained in females (576.03 mL/min vs 375.12 mL/min, P = 0.004). The diameter of the blood vessels with achieved adequate BF was significantly larger compared to the diameter of the blood vessels without adequate BF (radial artery: 2.45 mm vs 2.03 mm, P = 0.000; brachial artery: 4.78 mm vs 4.06 mm, P = 0.001 and cephalic vein: 3.12 mm vs 2.83 mm P = 0.018). The gender and the diameter of the blood vessels before AVF creation were significantly associated with achievement of adequate BF of AVF at the 4th week of creation. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Challenging Case of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in a 19- Year Old Female: A Case Report(Macedonian Society of Nephrology, Dialysis, Transplantation and Artifical Organs, Department of Nephrology, 2022); ; Introduction. In comparison to older adults, SARSCoV-2, leads to a mild illness in children and young adults typically manifested with fever, cough and gastrointestinal symptoms. However, the multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children and young adults (MISC) emerged during the coronavirus disease in 2019 pandemic. Case report. We report a challenging case of a 19- year old female patient with signs and symptoms of multisystem inflammatory syndrome and SARS-CoV2 infection, most probably as a post infectious disease with onset between 2 to 4 weeks after the infection. Its clinical symptoms may have overlaped with classical Kawasaki disease (systemic vasculitis) or Kawasakilike syndrome (atypical) with fever, gastrointestinal symptoms, rash, conjunctival injection, hypotension, sore throat, mucosal changes with a relative lack of severe respiratory disease, myocarditis, hypoalbuminemia and elevated inflammatory markers. And indeed, the clinical presentation of COVID-19 in young adults resembles Kawasaki disease with gastrointestinal manifestations to severe inflammation with myocarditis. Conclusion. Timely diagnosis and proper treatment of the multisystem inflammatory syndrome and SARSCoV-2 infection are real challenge requiring multidisciplinary approach and tertiary resources. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, The blood flow rate on the first day after arteriovenous fistula creation is a predictor of successful fistula maturation(Wiley, 2022-12-02); ; ; The determination of blood flow rate (BFR) is a useful tool for assessing the function of arteriovenous fistula (AVF).
