The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is variable, being associated with worse outcomes. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the incidence, risk factors and impact of AKI in subjects hospitalized for COVID-19 in two third- level hospitals in Córdoba, Argentina.A retrospective cohort study was conducted. 448 adults who were consecutively hospitalized for COVID-19 between March and the end of October 2020 at Hospital Privado Universitario de Córdoba and Hospital Raúl Angel Ferreyra were included. The incidence of AKI was 19% (n = 85). 50.6% presented AKI stage 1 (n=43), 20% stage 2 (n=17) and 29.4% stage 3 (n=25, of which 18 required renal replacement therapy). In the multivariate analysis, the variables that were independently associated with AKI were: age (adjusted Odd ratio -aOR- =1.30, 95%CI=1.04-1.63, p=0.022), history of chronic kidney disease (aOR=9.92, 95%CI=4.52-21.77, pIn conclusion, the incidence of AKI in adults hospitalized for COVID-19 was 19% and had a clear impact on morbidity and mortality. Local predisposing factors for AKI were identified.

Resumen Introduccion Estimar el filtrado glomerular (FG) en sujetos obesos es un desafio. Analizamos el rendimiento de las formulas de estimacion en esta poblacion. Material y metodos Estudio de corte transversal que incluyo a 100 sujetos con diversos grados de obesidad, evaluados entre 2008 y 2015. Se midio el FG con iotalamato (patron de referencia) y se estimo con formulas basadas en creatinina serica: Cockroft Gault, MDRD, CKD-EPI, MCQ y CKD-MCQ (promedio de estas). Se creo un score de performance global (S-P-Global) con puntajes, para unificar todos los criterios de analisis. Resultados En obesidad grado i (n = 53) la formula de mejor rendimiento fue CKD-MCQ (sesgo 1,6 ± 17,4 ml/min × 1,73 m 2 ; correlacion [r] = 0,87; area bajo la curva [AUC] = 0,978; sensibilidad [S] = 100% y especificidad [E] = 87,8%). En obesidad grado ii (n = 25) las de menor sesgo fueron MCQ y CKD-MCQ (1,8 ± 22.3 y –4,4 ± 21,9 ml/min × 1,7 3m 2 ), esta ultima con mayor r (r = 0,89) e igual AUC, S, y E (AUC = 0,976; S = 85,7%; E = 100%). En obesidad grado iii (n = 22), MDRD fue la de menor sesgo (–0,2 ± 31,1 ml/min × 1,73 m 2 ) y CKD-MCQ la de mayor r y AUC (r = 0,66; AUC = 0,929); con igual S y E (S = 80%; E = 94.1%) que MDRD. CKD-MCQ fue la unica ecuacion en la que no se hallaron diferencias significativas con el patron de referencia, en ninguno de los grados de obesidad; y en el S-P-Global fue la que mayor puntaje obtuvo (39/48). Conclusion La formula de mayor rendimiento global para estimar el FG en sujetos con diversos grados de obesidad fue CKD-MCQ.

This study highlights variations in HEV serological status inpatients with ESRD undergoing HD.To assess the dynamics of HEV infection in thispopulation, we prospectively evaluated individuals with end-stagerenal disease (ESRD) undergoing HD at a private hospital in Cordoba, Argentina, between November 2014 and November 2017.

Fabry disease is a rare inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by the deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. There is uncertainty regarding the safety of enzyme replacement therapy during pregnancy. We describe the course and outcome of seven pregnancies in six patients with Fabry disease who continued or reinitiated enzyme replacement therapy during pregnancy. No adverse events, in both mothers and children, were observed.
