Spontaneous keloids may be linked to nephrogenic systemic fibrosis in dialysis patients.

In this reported case, an immunosuppressive regimen including tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil was associated with a total regression of hidradenitis suppurativa activity over one year, while cyclosporine alone had no effect.

This study found that a substantial number of patients continued tamsulosin and/or finasteride unnecessarily after prostate surgery, with poor documentation and communication contributing to this issue.

This study found that dermatological issues, such as xerosis and pigmentation, are common in chronic kidney disease patients and increase with the severity and duration of the disease, indicating that dialysis often exacerbates these conditions.

In this retrospective study, the researchers found that infectious dermatologic conditions were most common among renal transplant recipients, with viral warts being the prevalent infectious condition, while increasing age and sex were associated with varying odds of developing different dermatologic 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 article discusses various potential causes of hair loss in women undergoing renal replacement therapy and emphasizes the importance of thorough patient evaluation, but it reports no new research findings.

This review discusses dermatologic changes in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis and reports no new clinical results.

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 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.

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 discusses a rare case of polypoid cystitis in a 45-year-old Asian man, which mimicked a bladder tumor and caused bilateral upper tract obstruction that was successfully treated through staged endoscopic management, ureteral stenting, and oral steroids.

This study found that adjuvant sorafenib after hepatic resection improved overall survival in patients with intermediate and advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, compared to surgery only.

This study reported a marginally lower sperm retrieval rate using micro-testicular sperm extraction (m-TESE) among nonmosaic Klinefelter Syndrome patients compared to existing literature, with younger patients benefitting more significantly from the procedure.

This study evaluated the prevalence and pattern of skin disorders in patients with chronic kidney disease, observing various dermatological issues that may impact quality of life and suggesting treatments to reduce morbidity.

This study developed and validated a radiomics-based clinical nomogram using routine renal ultrasound and clinical data to predict early diabetic kidney injury in a community cohort, finding it significantly outperformed clinical-only models in predicting risk and showed potential as a cost-effective screening tool.

This study observed that renal transplant recipients had a higher incidence of infectious skin diseases, particularly human papilloma virus infections, highlighting the importance of regular dermatological screening.

This study found that patients with BPH who received finasteride before TURP experienced reduced intraoperative blood loss and improved quality of life one month after surgery compared to those who did not.

This case report describes severe agranulocytosis and alopecia in a Japanese woman after starting azathioprine, highlighting the potential role of NUDT15 genetic screening in preventing adverse reactions to the drug.

This case report describes a 32-year-old woman with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus who developed severe lupus nephritis, emphasizing that early diagnosis and aggressive immunosuppressive therapy significantly improved her condition and reduced proteinuria, underscoring the importance of prompt treatment to prevent irreversible kidney damage.

This case report describes proguanil-related hematologic toxicity in a patient on peritoneal dialysis, suggesting that this malaria prophylaxis should be avoided in chronic kidney disease due to proguanil accumulation.

This study reports that prostate volume, operation time, resected tissue weight, and smoking increase risks of blood loss and fluid absorption during PK-TURP, while finasteride treatment and surgeon experience may reduce these risks.

This study concluded that a sequential regimen of prednisolone and cyclophosphamide, followed by low-dose prednisolone and azathioprine, achieved favorable results in most patients with diffuse proliferative and/or membranous lupus nephritis without significant toxicities.

The document does not confirm if radical prostatectomy is the best treatment for locally advanced prostate cancer.

This review discusses inflammatory and medication-related skin conditions associated with kidney disease and emphasizes the importance of timely referral to nephrology, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, nursing interventions based on the health belief model improved medication compliance, reduced self-perceived burden, and enhanced quality of life in renal transplant recipients compared to routine nursing care.

This case report documents a 57-year-old woman with a renin-producing adrenocortical carcinoma, revealing metastasis in the neck and providing insights into treatment effectiveness with trilostane and mitotane.

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.
