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 case report highlights a rare instance of minoxidil-induced pleuro-pericardial effusion with tamponade in a patient with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis, which improved following pericardiocentesis and discontinuation of the drug.

This narrative describes a dialogue between a nephrologist and a patient about skin darkening during dialysis, highlighting cultural sensitivity and the importance of addressing cosmetic concerns in medical care.

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 case report describes the diagnosis of pseudoporphyria in a hemodialysis patient, highlighting the importance of discontinuing causative medications and advising patients on sun protection to manage this photosensitive condition.

This case study observed a massive lithium overdose in a 38-year-old woman with bipolar disorder, who survived despite extremely high lithium concentrations through continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration.

This study found that hemodialysis patients taking water-soluble vitamins had a 16% lower mortality risk compared to those not taking any, but the specific supplementation needed remains unclear.

This case report describes a 70-year-old kidney transplant recipient who developed a keratoacanthoma near an arteriovenous fistula after returning to hemodialysis and stopping immunosuppression.

In this case study, scurvy was diagnosed in a middle-aged man on hemodialysis with food insecurity and undetectable vitamin C levels, highlighting the diverse risk factors and persistent challenges in managing vitamin C deficiency among patients with complex medical and social issues.

This study found that skin changes, such as xerosis and pruritus, are common in children with chronic kidney disease and are primarily related to the disease itself rather than haemodialysis.

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

This study found that multiple treatment regimens for refractory hypertension were effective in controlling blood pressure in most patients, with diazoxide being the most effective but least tolerable option.

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 study reported that toxic shock syndrome, originally noted in children, is now predominantly associated with menstruating women, with some experiencing recurrence and complications like vocal cord paralysis and impaired finger sensation.

Minoxidil controls blood pressure but may cause kidney damage and needs diuretics to prevent swelling.

This case report describes a 40-year-old woman with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome diagnosed with multiple chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, highlighting the importance of recognizing associated dermatologic lesions for early intervention.

This case report describes a woman whose psychiatric symptoms preceded the clear signs of systemic lupus erythematosus, which could suggest they were early indicators of SLE or related to an underlying mental disorder exacerbated by SLE.

This case report details an instance of acute kidney injury associated with increased oxalate levels likely due to systemic absorption of glycolic acid from hair straightening agents, exacerbated by untreated psoriasis.

This case report describes a patient with ectopic Cushing's syndrome who experienced fatal complications from COVID-19, highlighting the challenges in managing such patients due to immune response alterations from endogenous hypercortisolemia.

This case report describes a middle-aged Sudanese woman with intussusception associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), presenting with multiple symptoms including joint pain and abdominal issues.

Minoxidil effectively controls blood pressure in severe cases, but may cause fluid retention and edema.

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

This review discusses the potential link between direct oral anticoagulants and hair loss, suggesting DOACs may not be a suitable alternative for patients with alopecia from traditional anticoagulants; however, no clinical results are reported.

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 article reviews the uses, mechanisms, and side effects of valproate in treating bipolar disorder, noting its first-line status for several manic conditions but also highlighting serious risks such as fetal abnormalities.

Minoxidil effectively lowers blood pressure without major side effects.
