RENAL SALT WASTING: UNA SINDROME DA INAPPROPRIATA SECREZIONE DI URODILATINA? UNO STUDIO PILOTA
2022
La Renal Salt Wasting Syndrome (RSW) è una sindrome clinica con caratteristiche di laboratorio che si sovrappongono completamente alla sindrome da secrezione inappropriata di ADH (SIADH). La differenza fondamentale tra le due sindromi risiede nel volume extracellulare (ECV), ridotto nella RSW e normale o leggermente aumentato nella SIADH. Le difficoltà nella diagnosi differenziale di questa sindrome e nella comprensione del preciso meccanismo patogenetico hanno contribuito a mettere in discussione l'esistenza stessa di RSW. Considerando le caratteristiche della RSW, è stato studiato il possibile ruolo dei peptidi natriuretici per spiegare la sua patogenesi come ANP e BNP, con risultati inso…
Mr-Proadm Elevation Upon Icu Admission Predicts the Outcome of Septic Patients and is Correlated with Upcoming Fluid Overload.
2017
IF 3.113; International audience; Background: Among septic patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), early recognition of those with the highest risk of death is of paramount importance. We evaluated the prognostic value of Procalcitonin (PCT), mid regional-proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM), copeptine and CT-proendothelin 1 (CT-ProET 1) concentrations. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study, which included 173 septic patient admitted to one ICU. Blood samples for biomarker measure-ments were obtained upon admission and on day 5. The predictive value of each biomarker regarding the risk of death at day 28 was assessed. The fluid balance was evaluated from admission to day 5. Resu…
Effects of three different water temperatures on dehydration in competitive swimmers
2011
Summary Aims The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of three different water temperatures on physiological responses (dehydration, sweat rate, urine output, rectal temperature and plasma electrolytes) of competitive athletes during a “simulated” race of 5 km in an indoor swimming pool. Methods Nine male competitive master swimmers swam 5 km with the water at temperatures of 23, 27 and 32 C. Immediately before (Pre) and after (Post) each trial, samples of blood and urine were collected, body weight was recorded and rectal temperature was measured. The dehydration percentage and sweat rate were the highest at 32 C and the lowest at 23 C (23 C: −0.9 ± 0.5; 27 C: −1.3 ± 0.6; 32 C…
