Kidney Disease Management in the Hospital Setting: A Focus on Inappropriate Drug Prescriptions in Older Patients

2021

Aging with multimorbidity and polytherapy are the most significant factors that could led to inappropriate prescribing of contraindicated medications in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the prescriptions of contraindicated drugs in older adults in CKD and to identify their associated factors in a hospital context. An observational retrospective study was carried out considering all patients ≥65 years with at least one serum creatinine value recorded into the REPOSI register into 2010–2016 period. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was applied to identify CKD. A descriptive analysis was performed to compare demographic and clinica…

The combination of different antiphospholipid antibody subgroups in the sera of patients with autoimmune diseases is a strong predictor for thrombosis

2003

Summary Objective: To determine the distribution of different antiphospholipid antibodies (APL-Ab) and their association with thrombosis in patients with autoimmune diseases. Methods: Clinical data and laboratory features of 30 patients with different autoimmune diseases with positive APL-Ab were retrospectively studied for a period of more than two years. Anti-cardiolipin (aCL), anti-phosphatidylserine (aPS) and anti-β2-glycoprotein I (aβ2-GPI) antibodies were determined by ELISA. Results: Autoantibodies that target only PS were detected in 53.3% (n=16) patients, aCL antibodies only were found in one patient (3,3%). In 43.3% (n=13), aPS were associated with elevated levels of aCL and/or aβ…
