INTRODUCTION Month of Ramadan bring many changes in life style, especially the diet of Muslims all over the world among both fasting and nonfasting individuals. Hemodialysis patients are kept on restricted diet because of fluid and electrolytes imbalance. The aim of this study was to compare changes in the clinical and biochemical parameters in fasting and nonfasting hemodialysis patients durin...

introduction: many of those who survive following an earthquake die in the next phase due to preventable and treatable medical conditions such as hyperkalemia. the present study aimed to evaluate the trend of potassium changes in crush syndrome patients of bam earthquake. methods: in this retrospective cross-sectional study, using the database of bam earthquake victims, which were developed by ...

Electrolyte abnormalities are very common problems in clinical practice, and if chronic, their management can be difficult. Hypokalemia, defined as a serum potassium level <3.5 mmol/L, is an exceptionally common electrolyte abnormality encountered in clinical practice; >20% of hospitalized patients have been reported to have some degree of hypokalemia [1]. Hypomagnesemia is also common and has ...

Electrolyte abnormalities are among the most common reasons for patients to develop cardiac arrhythmias. Of all the electrolyte abnormalities, hyperkalemia is most rapidly fatal. A high degree of clinical suspicion and aggressive treatment of underlying electrolyte abnormalities can prevent many patients from progressing to cardiac arrest.

Aim: To confirm algorithm of determination risk groups with physiological imbalance in the population exposed to unfavorable anthropogenic influences. Methods: The testing included such functional systems as constitution, myocardial contractility, autonomic regulation heart rate, peripheral circulation, psychomotor regulation, respiratory and metabolism. Monitoring is carried out using computer...

OBJECTIVE This study compared physiological differences between children diagnosed with migraine and their healthy peers. METHOD Physiological measures were obtained at baseline, after discussing an emotional stressor, and after a 5-min recovery period in 21 children with pediatric migraine and 32 healthy peers. Comparisons were also made on psychological measures investigating anxiety. RES...

With the acceleration of pace work and life, people are facing more pressure, which increases probability suffering from depression. However, many patients may fail to get a timely diagnosis due serious imbalance in doctor–patient ratio world. A promising development is that physiological psychological studies have found some differences speech facial expression between with depression healthy ...

Hypotension during intermittent hemodialysis is common, and has been attributed to acute volume shifts, shifts in osmolarity, electrolyte imbalance, temperature changes, altered vasoregulation, and sheer hypovolemia. Although hypovolemia may intuitively seem a likely cause for hypotension in intensive care patients, its role in the pathogenesis of intradialytic hypotension may be overestimated.

Imbalance band market is an alternative to traditional structures which proposed ensure that system frequency remains within acceptable bounds. In imbalance environment, the load-serving entities (LSEs) can purchase bands or reduce load deviation by operating a battery energy storage (BESS) avoid penalty for causing imbalance. The concept would be effective in sharing balancing responsibility b...
