Mild Stage 1 post-operative acute kidney injury: association with chronic kidney disease and long-term survival

Thorir Einarsson Long et al.

Summary: Mild Stage 1 AKI is associated with development and progression of CKD, but not with inferior 1-year survival. These findings support the inclusion of a small absolute increase in SCr in the definition of AKI.

The mystery of 'saturation gap' and falsely normal G6PD: a case of primaquine-induced haemolysis in Plasmodium vivax malaria infection

Andy Sing Ong Tang et al.

Summary: Eradication therapy in Plasmodium vivax in variants of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency individuals remains a clinical challenge, with potential complications such as primaquine-induced methaemoglobinaemia and haemolytic anaemia. Close monitoring and adjustment of drug treatment are necessary to manage these risks effectively.

Endothelial glycocalyx degradation and disease severity in Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium knowlesi malaria

Bridget E. Barber et al.

Summary: Degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx is increased in knowlesi and vivax malaria, and is associated with disease severity and acute kidney injury in knowlesi malaria. In knowlesi malaria, the difference in median syndecan-1 between severe and non-severe disease was more marked in females than males. Agents that inhibit glycocalyx breakdown may represent adjunctive therapeutics for severe non-falciparum malaria.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in individuals with and without malaria: Analysis of clinical trial, cross-sectional and case-control data from Bangladesh

Benedikt Ley et al.

Summary: The researchers found that individuals with malaria had significantly higher G6PD activity compared to those without the disease, suggesting that the difference in G6PD activity between the two groups was not due to lower G6PD activity being a protective factor against malaria infection.
