Background: The occurrence of a renal artery pseudoaneurysm after blunt renal trauma is an infrequent complication. The occurrence of delayed bleeding is typically observed within a period of 2 to 3 weeks following an injury and is commonly attributed to the presence of an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) or pseudoaneurysm. They are frequently observed in cases of injuries of greater severity or trauma that penetrates the body. The application of angiographic catheterization is efficacious in the detection of pseudoaneurysms in the renal artery. The management of renal pseudoaneurysms necessitates the consideration of distinct clinical associations, including the location and size of the lesion as well as the presence of symptoms.
Objective: The objective of this study is to provide a detailed account of the use of an angiographic catheter and embolization in the treatment of a patient afflicted with a post-traumatic renal artery pseudoaneurysm.
Materials and Methods: Conducting a literature review and medical records.
Results: A case of renal artery pseudoaneurysm is presented. A male individual aged 33 sought medical attention at the emergency department following a motorcycle collision and exhibited symptoms of pain in the right flank region. The individual underwent a medical intervention involving the placement of a double J stent. After a period of nearly fourteen days, the individual reported experiencing hematuria. The abdominal CT scan revealed a renal injury on the right side with an AAST grade of 4, while the renal CTA demonstrated the presence of a pseudoaneurysm. A pseudoaneurysm was observed at the renal poles on the right side through the use of an angiographic catheter. The procedure of selective embolization utilising coils was executed on the renal arteries located at the lower and middle poles of the right kidney.
Conclusion: The occurrence of renal artery pseudoaneurysms is infrequent; however, it is a grave complication that may arise from renal trauma. The accurate diagnosis and effective management of pseudoaneurysms are of paramount importance due to their potential to cause severe and potentially fatal complications if left untreated. The diagnostic process for pseudoaneurysms heavily relies on the involvement of the general radiologist. Interventional radiology provides alternative minimally invasive procedures that are linked to reduced morbidity and mortality rates and have replaced surgical interventions in the management of certain conditions.

Published: October 2023

BackgroundThe renal effect of metabolic syndrome components is unclear in patients with atrial fibrillation. This study aimed to investigate the association between metabolic syndrome components and incident end-stage renal disease among patients with atrial fibrillation.MethodsA total of 202,434 atrial fibrillation patients without prevalent end-stage renal disease were identified from the National Health Insurance Service database between 2009 and 2016. We defined the metabolic score range from 0 to 5 points such that a patient received every 1 point if the patient met each component listed in the diagnostic criteria of metabolic syndrome. The population was divided into 6 groups: MS0–MS5 for a metabolic score of 0–5, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to estimate the risks of end-stage renal disease.ResultsThere were 12,747, 31,059, 40,361, 48,068, 46,630, and 23,569 patients for MS0–MS5, respectively. Compared with MS0, MS5 had a higher CHA2DS2-VASc score (3.8 vs. 1.0) (P &lt; .001). During a median follow-up of 3.5 years, compared with MS0, MS1–MS5 were associated with a gradually increasing incidence of end-stage renal disease, in relation to an increase in the metabolic score, (log-rank P &lt; .001). After multivariate adjustment, a higher metabolic score was associated with a greater risk of incident end-stage renal disease: adjusted hazard ratio [95% confidence interval] = 1.60 [0.78–3.48], 2.08 [1.01–4.31], 2.94 [1.43–6.06], 3.71 [1.80–7.66], and 4.82 [2.29–10.15], for MS1–MS5, respectively.ConclusionsMetabolic syndrome components additively impacts the risk of incident end-stage renal disease among patients with atrial fibrillation.

Authors: Noort Bart A. C. , van der Vaart Taco , van der Maten Jan , Metting Esther , Ahaus Kees 
Published: October 2023

BackgroundThis study assesses whether out-of-hospital coaching of re-hospitalized, severe COPD patients by specialized respiratory nurses is feasible in terms of cost-effectiveness, implementation, and recipient acceptability. The coaching was aimed at improving patients’ health management abilities, motivation for healthy behavior, strengthening the professional and informal care network, stimulating physiotherapy treatment and exercise training, improving knowledge on symptom recognition and medication use, and providing safety and support.MethodsCost-effectiveness of 6 months of out-of-hospital coaching was assessed based on a before-after intervention design, with real-life data and one-year follow-up. A total of 170 patients were included. Primary (questionnaires, meeting reports) and secondary data (insurance reimbursement data) were collected in one province in the Netherlands. The implementing and recipient acceptability was assessed based on the number of successfully delivered coaching sessions, questionnaire response rate, Patient Reported Experience Measure, and interviews with coaches.ResultsPost-intervention, the COPD-related hospitalization rate was reduced by 24%, and patients improved in terms of health status, anxiety, and nutritional status. Patients with a high mental burden and a poor score for health impairment and wellbeing at the start of the intervention showed the greatest reduction in hospitalizations. The coaching service was successfully implemented and considered acceptable by recipients, based on patient and coach satisfaction and clinical use of patient-reported measures.ConclusionThe study demonstrates the value of coaching patients out-of-hospital, with a strong link to primary care, but with support of hospital expertise, thereby adding to previous studies on disease- or self-management support in either primary or secondary care settings. Patients benefit from personal attention, practical advice, exercise training, and motivational meetings, thereby improving health status and reducing the likelihood of re-hospitalization and its associated costs.
Beryllium solubility and hydrolysis in dilute to concentrated CaCl2 solutions: thermodynamic description in cementitious systems
Authors: Çevirim-Papaioannou Nese , Androniuk Iuliia , Miron George Dan , Altmaier Marcus , Gaona Xavier 
Published: October 2023

The solubility and hydrolysis of Be(II) was investigated from undersaturation conditions in alkaline, dilute to concentrated CaCl2 solutions (0.05–3.5 M). Experiments were performed with α-Be(OH)2(cr) under Ar atmosphere at T = (22 ± 2)°C. Aqueous Be speciation was further investigated by means of molecular dynamics (MD) calculations. For the most diluted CaCl2 systems (0.05 and 0.25 M), a solubility minimum is observed at pHm ≈ 9.5 {with [Be(II)] ≈ 10−7 M}, consistent with solubility data previously reported in NaCl and KCl solutions. Above this pHm, and at higher CaCl2 concentrations, a steep increase in the solubility with a slope of ∼ +2 is observed, hinting towards the predominance of the moiety [Be(OH)42–] in the aqueous phase. In NaCl and KCl systems, this hydrolysis species prevails only above pHm ∼ 13, thus supporting the formation of ternary complex/es Ca–Be(II)–OH(aq) in CaCl2 solutions. The analysis of solubility data in combination with MD calculations underpin the key role of the complex Ca2[Be(OH)4]2+ in alkaline to hyperalkaline systems containing Ca. In combination with our previous work in NaCl–NaOH and KCl–KOH systems, complete chemical, thermodynamic and (SIT) activity models are derived for the first time for the system Be2+–Ca2+–Na+–K+–H+–Cl––OH––H2O(l). This model provides an accurate and robust tool for the evaluation of Be(II) solubility and speciation in a diversity of geochemical conditions, including source term calculations of beryllium in the context of repositories for nuclear waste disposal with a high cement inventory.
Optimizing polypharmacy management in the elderly: a comprehensive European benchmarking survey and the development of an innovative online benchmarking application
Authors: Kardas Przemysław , Mair Alpana , Stewart Derek , Lewek Paweł 
Published: October 2023

Background: Polypharmacy, defined as the simultaneous use of multiple medications by a patient, is a worldwide problem of rising prevalence. Paving the way for drug interactions, adverse drug reactions and non-adherence, it leads to negative health outcomes, increased use of healthcare services and rising costs. Since it is closely related to multimorbidity, it peaks in older adults. So far, not many polypharmacy management programs in the elderly have been introduced in practice. However, due to the rapid ageing of European societies, there is an urgent need to implement them more widely.Objective: The aim of this study was to benchmark polypharmacy management programs in the elderly available in Europe and creating a dedicated benchmarking application.Methods: It was a cross-sectional study based on an online survey targeting healthcare professionals and other stakeholders across European countries. Data collected in the survey were reused to design an online benchmarking application.Results: As many as 911 respondents from all but two EU countries took part in this study. Out of the survey participants, 496 (54.4%) reported availability of various activities or formal programs targeting polypharmacy in the elderly that were known to them. These programs had multiple goals, of which improved patient safety was indicated as the most common objective (65.1% of the cases). The most typical settings for such programs was primary care (49.4%), with pharmacists and primary care doctors being indicated most often as those providing the programs (61.7% and 35.5% of cases, respectively). Vast majority of programs applied diverse forms of drug reviews. The identified programs were assessed against four predefined dimensions of effectiveness, applicability, scalability and cost-effectiveness. The lowest scores were obtained within the last of these categories, due to unavailability of relevant data. Based on the survey results, a benchmarking application was constructed. It allows for comparing an individual polypharmacy management program targeting the elderly against the other ones, and particularly, against the national and European context.Conclusion: By providing strong evidence, the findings of this study, coupled with the benchmarking application, can prove valuable in aiding clinicians and policymakers in the implementation and expansion of polypharmacy management programs for the elderly.
