Article Abstract
This study proposes to use the K-medoids clustering method to identify subtypes of Intensive Care Unit (ICU)-acquired acute kidney injury (AKI) patients based on serum electrolyte data. Three distinct AKI subtypes with different serum electrolyte characteristics were identified by clustering analysis. Further, descriptive analysis was employed to characterize in-hospital mortality and renal replacement therapy, diuretic and vasopressor usage in the three subtypes, and Chi-square tests were conducted to check the differences of prognosis and treatments among the identified subtypes. This study enables the subclassification of AKI patients in the ICU, facilitating ICU physicians to make timely clinical decisions about AKI, and ultimately may contribute to patient outcome improvement.

A potential association between tirzepatide and hypercalcemia in the setting of chronic hydrochlorothiazide use.

Department of Internal Medicine, Medical City Arlington, Arlington, Texas, USA.
Summary: Hypercalcemia is a prevalent electrolyte disturbance commonly associated with primary hyperparathyroidism, cancer, or medication adverse effects. Thiazide diuretics reduce urinary calcium excretion, increasing calcium reabsorption and hypercalcemia. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, is increasingly used for type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Background: Small intestinal (SI) distension and gastric reflux (GR) are common in horses with mechanical and functional ileus. Removal of GR results in fluid/ion losses.
Aims/objectives: 1) Determine the capacity of healthy SI; 2) measure ion concentrations in normal SI fluid, GR, or fluid from SI undergoing resection.

Hyponatremia and hyperkalemia, though uncommon in infancy, are potentially life-threatening electrolyte disturbances. We discuss a case of secondary pseudohypoaldosteronism (PHA) in a six-month-old male presenting with recurrent vomiting, severe hyponatremia (119 mmol/L), hyperkalemia (6.6 mmol/L), and metabolic acidosis (bicarbonate: 9 mmol/L).

Introduction: There have been growing efforts to identify predictors of Cerebral Vasospasm to facilitate earlier diagnosis and establish patient predictive models. This review discusses the implications of serum electrolytes, glycemic indices, and inflammatory markers in predicting the occurrence of aSAH-induced CV.
Methods: The literature was reviewed across PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Google scholars, the National Center for Biotechnology Information, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and the National Institutes of Health.
Identification of early predictors of clinical remission in primary membranous nephropathy: a analysis of the STARMEN trial.

Background: Patients with primary membranous nephropathy may progress to advanced chronic kidney disease despite immunosuppressive therapy (IST). Prediction of treatment response based on early and combined assessment of several standard clinical markers could improve risk stratification for progression, allowing timely individualization of treatment, which can optimize clinical outcomes and safety.
Methods: In this exploratory analysis of the STARMEN trial, we evaluated if combined baseline data, and IST-induced early changes in standard clinical markers predicted clinical remission at 2 years.
