Anemia and renal failure (RF) are related to poor prognosis in chronic heart failure (HF). Anemia appear early in the course of RF and its value as predictor of risk in HF may be overlap by the value of RF. We aimed to establish the prognostic value of anemia and RF in a Brazilian HF population.

Background: Belzutifan is a HIF-2ɑ inhibitor approved for the treatment of tumors in von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome and sporadic metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (spRCC) in the refractory setting. The efficacy and side effects of belzutifan are well-documented from clinical trials, however, real-world data examining the incidence and management of adverse events (AEs) are lacking. Our study aims to describe the AE profiles of belzutifan in spRCC and VHL populations.

Background: Intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy (IPC), including hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), has emerged as a promising approach to control peritoneal metastases in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. However, the safety profile and toxicity spectrum of IPC remain incompletely understood. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of hematologic and biochemical adverse reactions following surgery with or without IPC and to compare the toxicity profiles of normothermic IPC and HIPEC.

Hematuria is a common clinical symptom that may reflect a wide spectrum of underlying conditions, ranging from benign etiologies to potentially life-threatening diseases such as urothelial carcinoma or renal trauma. It is generally classified as either gross (visible) or microscopic (detected only through urinalysis), and particularly in emergency settings, it requires prompt and structured evaluation to guide further diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. Delayed recognition may result in missed malignancies or avoidable complications, underscoring the importance of early and accurate assessment at the initial point of medical contact.
