This review discusses the various skin manifestations associated with end-stage renal disease and their potential causes but reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize pruritus as a significant condition.

This article narrates the author's personal journey with systemic lupus erythematosus over 15 years, highlighting the challenges and strategies for managing this complex disease and maintaining quality of life.

This case study highlights the risks of ingesting topical minoxidil, demonstrated by a 24-year-old male who accidentally consumed 1500mg due to a language barrier, leading to a temporary rise in creatinine levels but no lasting kidney damage.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) nanovesicles coated with modified chitosans, finding that they can effectively control surface charge and potentially serve as drug delivery carriers with a 50.7% encapsulation efficiency for minoxidil.

This research highlights the common and varied skin-related symptoms associated with chronic kidney disease, emphasizing that early recognition and multi-pronged management involving nephrology and dermatology can improve patient outcomes.

In this study, xerosis and pruritus were common skin issues in pediatric chronic kidney disease patients, with xerosis linked to lower hemodialysis efficacy and higher white blood cells, and pruritis associated with higher hemoglobin levels.

This article reviews the medicinal uses of sweet violet in traditional Persian medicine, highlighting its benefits for conditions like coughing in asthmatic patients, constipation, insomnia, and allergic rhinitis, while noting no special side effects at therapeutic doses.

This report presents a case of a CKD patient who, after contracting COVID-19, experienced a rapid decline in kidney function, hair loss, and spontaneous wart remission, highlighting a need for further investigation into these unexpected outcomes.

This abstract appears to consist entirely of repeated color specifications and logo guidelines, providing no research findings or new results.

This study assessed the physical and mental health-related quality of life in patients undergoing either open surgical repair or endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm using the SF-36 tool.

In this case report, a young woman experienced acute kidney injury linked to the use of a hair straightening product containing glyoxylic acid, suggesting dermal absorption may lead to calcium oxalate nephropathy; this highlights the need for regulatory review and public health intervention.

In this case report, researchers highlighted two instances of oxalate nephropathy secondary to enteric hyperoxaluria following small bowel surgeries, emphasizing the need to consider this condition in patients with unexplained renal decline and a history of bowel surgery due to its typically poor prognosis.

This case report detailed a 71-year-old male with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome and associated membranous nephropathy, who showed a significant improvement in skin and gastrointestinal symptoms, and remission of nephropathy, after treatment with rituximab, cyclosporine, and azathioprine.

This review discusses the challenges of anticoagulation in hemodialysis, including the limitations and risks of current methods, and emphasizes the need for better solutions, but reports no new clinical results.

Repigmentation in vitiligo may come from melanocyte stem cells in the skin.

In this study, minoxidil effectively reduced blood pressure to near normal levels in patients with malignant or accelerated hypertension resistant to conventional treatments, offering a potential alternative to nephrectomy.

Minoxidil doesn't increase pericardial disorder risk, but may cause fluid accumulation.

Minoxidil helps treat severe high blood pressure.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

This study found that minoxidil effectively reduced blood pressure in patients with severe hypertension and renal failure resistant to conventional drugs, though side effects like hirsutism and edema were common.

In this study, nearly all predialysis chronic kidney disease patients had at least one dermatologic finding, with xerosis being the most common, highlighting the prevalence and diversity of skin issues in this population.

This case report describes a girl with Denys-Drash syndrome misdiagnosed with hyperandrogenism due to biotin interference in immunoassays, highlighting the need for awareness of laboratory result discrepancies.

This case series found that paclitaxel and nab-paclitaxel may be safe and effective chemotherapy options for hemodialysis patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer.

This report suggests that recombinant human erythropoietin use may be linked to alopecia in Southeast Asian women with chronic renal failure.

This review highlights a gap between patient-reported and physician-perceived rates of alopecia in transplant recipients, suggesting the issue may be underestimated and stressing the need for better recognition and management of hair disorders caused by immunosuppressive therapy post-kidney transplantation.

In this case report, a 47-year-old man experienced systemic hair loss after starting hemodialysis, which resolved after discontinuing the antipruritic drug nalfurafine, suggesting its role in causing hair follicle capillary regression.

This study found that nail and hair changes were predominantly observed in patients with stage 5D chronic kidney disease, with the most common changes being half and half nails and sparse scalp hair.

This case report describes severe hypotension, acute coronary syndrome, tachycardia, and acute kidney failure in a man who ingested topical minoxidil, with eventual recovery following intensive treatment.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing a rare case of Leydig cell tumor with type I diabetes mellitus causing female pattern hair loss, but it contains no abstract or new clinical findings.

This study aimed to characterize the dermatological findings in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis and explore their relationship with demographic and clinical features, although specific results are not reported in the abstract.
