ABSTRACT: Background: Hyponatremia is common in cirrhosis and is associated with high mortality. In contrast, hypernatremia is less frequent and is typically caused by hypotonic fluid losses due to ...
Microglia are the brain’s immune cells playing an important role in maintaining neural function and responding to potential threats. Now, researchers have found that increased sodium levels ...
Hyponatremia is common in patients with conditions such as congestive heart failure and is associated with increased mortality in hospitalized patients. Congestive heart failure is common in patients ...
Hyponatremia and hypernatremia on admission to the cardiac intensive care unit are associated with increased unadjusted short‐ and long‐term mortality. Further studies are needed to determine whether ...
Careful evaluation of older patients with epilepsy is necessary for minimizing the risk of hyponatremia.
Cirrhosis can lead to other complications like portal hypertension and ascites. These can eventually lead to hyponatremia, low blood sodium levels.
Although time-dependent hypernatremia correlated with an increased risk of kidney disease regardless of age, baseline and time-dependent hyponatremia was associated with an increased risk in ...
In adjusted Cox models, the risks for all-cause mortality were a significant 38% and 54% higher among patients with time-dependent hyponatremia and hypernatremia, respectively, compared with ...
Among patients with COVID-19, both hyponatremia and hypernatremia were significantly associated with increased odds of mortality compared with normonatremia, the investigators concluded.
Nearly 52% of adult patients hospitalized for COVID-19 in the metropolitan New York region had hyponatremia or hypernatremia at admission, a study found. Sodium abnormalities are present in more than ...
