Review
INTRODUCTION
Dengue is endemic in the tropics, and complications involving organ systems are seen with varying incidence.
METHODOLOGY
We performed a systematic review. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus SciVerse, Google Scholar, and LILACS were searched for papers providing information on cardiac involvement in dengue.
RESULTS
Cardiac involvement is not uncommon in dengue infection and is often transient, but may be associated with significant morbidity and even mortality. Direct viral invasion, immune mechanisms, electrolyte imbalance, derangement of intracellular calcium ion storage, lactic acidosis, and ischemia due to hypotension all play a role in myocardial dysfunction. The manifestations of cardiac involvement include clinical, electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, cardiac enzyme, and histopathologic abnormalities. Echocardiography appears to be a useful tool for detecting myocardial involvement and should be performed in patients with electrocardiographic abnormalities or hemodynamic instability. Treatment is largely supportive, though there are some anecdotal reports of improvements with specific agents.
CONCLUSIONS
Knowledge on cardiac manifestations in dengue is limited, and further studies are needed to establish the exact pathophysiology and role of specific agents in the prevention and treatment of cardiac complications in dengue.

INTRODUCTION
The antimicrobial trimethoprim is structurally related to potassium-sparing diuretics and may consequently lead to derangements in electrolyte and acid-base balance. Since no report so far analyzed the literature documenting individual cases with electrolyte and acid-base derangements induced by trimethoprim, a systematic review was carried out.
EVIDENCE ACQUISITION
We retained 53 reports documenting 68 cases (42 males and 26 females 23 to 96 years of age) of electrolyte or acid-base derangements occurring on trimethoprim for about 5 days.
EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS
One hundred five electrolyte imbalances were detected in the 68 patients: hyperkalemia (>5.0 mmol/L) in 62 (91%), hyponatremia (<135 mmol/L) in 29 (43%) and metabolic acidosis (pH<7.38 and bicarbonate <19 mmol/L) in 14 (21%) cases. Following possible predisposing factors for electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities were found in 54 (79%) patients: high-dose trimethoprim, comedication with drugs that have been associated with electrolyte and acid-base derangements, preexisting kidney disease, age ≥80 years and diabetes mellitus.
CONCLUSIONS
High-dose trimethoprim, comedicated with drugs that have been associated with electrolyte and acid-base derangements, poor kidney function, age ≥80 years and diabetes mellitus predispose to trimethoprim-associated electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities. Clinicians must recognize patients at risk, possibly avoid drug combinations that may worsen the problem and monitor the laboratory values.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Stroke management in the context of primary mitochondrial disease is clinically challenging, and the best treatment options for patients with stroke-like episodes remain uncertain. We sought to perform a systematic review of the safety and efficacy of l-arginine use in the acute and prophylactic management of stroke-like episodes in patients with mitochondrial disease.
METHODS
The systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020181230). We searched 6 databases from inception to January 15, 2021: MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Original articles and registered trials available, in English, reporting l-arginine use in the acute or prophylactic management of stroke-like episodes in patients with genetically confirmed mitochondrial disease were eligible for inclusion. Data on safety and treatment response were extracted and summarized by multiple observers. Risk of bias was assessed by the methodologic quality of case reports, case series, and a risk-of-bias checklist for nonrandomized studies. Quality of evidence was synthesized with the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Levels of Evidence and Grade of Recommendations. The predetermined main outcome measures were clinical response to l-arginine treatment, adverse events, withdrawals, and deaths (on treatment and/or during follow-up), as defined by the author.
RESULTS
Thirty-seven articles met inclusion criteria (0 randomized controlled trials; 3 open-label; 1 retrospective cohort; 33 case reports/case series) (N = 91 patients; 86% m.3243A>G). In the case reports, 54% of patients reported a positive clinical response to acute l-arginine, of which 40% were concomitantly treated with antiepileptic drugs. Improved headache at 24 hours was the greatest reported benefit in response to IV l-arginine in the open-label trials (31 of 39, 79%). In 15 of 48 patients (31%) who positively responded to prophylactic l-arginine, antiepileptic drugs were either used (7 of 15) or unreported (8 of 15). Moderate adverse events were reported in the follow-up of both IV and oral l-arginine treatment, and 11 patients (12%) died during follow-up or while on prophylactic treatment.
DISCUSSION
The available evidence is of poor methodologic quality and classified as Level 5. IV and oral l-arginine confers no demonstrable clinical benefit in either the acute or prophylactic treatment of mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes, with more robust controlled trials required to assess its efficacy and safety profile.

Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
Individuals with CKD are at a higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Acidosis is positively correlated with CKD progression and elevated systolic BP. Sodium bicarbonate is an efficacious treatment of acidosis, although this may also increase systolic BP. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we summarize the evidence evaluating systolic BP and antihypertensive medication change (which may indicate systolic BP change) in response to sodium bicarbonate therapy in individuals with CKD.
METHODS
Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, Excerpta Medica database, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and World Health Organization (WHO) trials registry databases were searched for randomized control trials where sodium bicarbonate was compared with placebo/usual care in CKD stage G1-5 non-dialysis-dependent populations. Random effects meta-analyses were used to evaluate changes in systolic BP and BP-modifying drugs after sodium bicarbonate intervention.
RESULTS
Fourteen randomized control trials (2110 individuals, median follow-up 27 [interquartile range 97] weeks, mean age 60 [SD 10] years, mean systolic BP 136 [SD 17] mm Hg, mean eGFR 38 [SD 10] ml/min, mean serum bicarbonate 22 [SD 4] mmol/L) were eligible for inclusion. Meta-analysis suggested that sodium bicarbonate did not influence systolic BP in individuals with CKD stage G1-5. Results were consistent when stratifying by dose of sodium bicarbonate or duration of intervention. Similarly, there was no significant increase in the use of antihypertensive medication or diuretics in individuals taking sodium bicarbonate, whereas there was a greater decrease in antihypertensive medication use in individuals taking sodium bicarbonate compared with controls.
CONCLUSIONS
Our results suggest, with moderate certainty, that sodium bicarbonate supplementation does not adversely affect systolic BP in CKD or negatively influence antihypertensive medication requirements.

Review
Regional Citrate Anticoagulation in Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: Is Metabolic Fear the Enemy of Logic? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials.
BACKGROUND
Anticoagulation is recommended to maintain the patency of the circuit in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). However, anticoagulation-associated complications can occur. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of citrate anticoagulation to heparin anticoagulation in critically ill patients treated with CRRT.
METHODS
Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the safety and efficacy of citrate anticoagulation and heparin in CRRT were included. Articles not describing the incidence of metabolic and/or electrolyte disturbances induced by the anticoagulation strategy were excluded. The PubMed, Embase, and MEDLINE electronic databases were searched. The last search was performed on 18 February 2022.
RESULTS
Twelve articles comprising 1592 patients met the inclusion criteria. There was no significant difference between the groups in the development of metabolic alkalosis (RR = 1.46; (95% CI (0.52-4.11); = 0.470)) or metabolic acidosis (RR = 1.71, (95% CI (0.99-2.93); = 0.054)). Patients in the citrate group developed hypocalcaemia more frequently (RR = 3.81; 95% CI (1.67-8.66); = 0.001). Bleeding complications in patients randomised to the citrate group were significantly lower than those in the heparin group (RR 0.32 (95% CI (0.22-0.47); < 0.0001)). Citrate showed a significantly longer filter lifespan of 14.52 h (95% CI (7.22-21.83); < 0.0001), compared to heparin. There was no significant difference between the groups for 28-day mortality (RR = 1.08 (95% CI (0.89-1.31); = 0.424) or 90-day mortality (RR 0.9 (95% CI (0.8-1.02); = 0.110).
CONCLUSION
regional citrate anticoagulation is a safe anticoagulant for critically ill patients who require CRRT, as no significant differences were found in metabolic complications between the groups. Additionally, citrate has a lower risk of bleeding and circuit loss than heparin.

INTRODUCTION
Heatstroke (HS) is a severe form of heat-related illness (HRI) associated with high morbidity and mortality, representing a condition that includes long-term multiorgan dysfunction and susceptibility to further heat illness.
METHODS
In a systematic review searching Medline PubMed from the studies conducted between 2009 and 2020, 16 papers were identified.
RESULTS
A hallmark symptom of heat stroke is CNS dysfunction (a hallmark sign of HS) which manifests as mental status changes, including agitation, delirium, epilepsy, or coma at the time of the collapse. Acute kidney injury (AKI), gut ischemia, blood clots in the stomach and small intestine, cytoplasmic protein clumps in the spleen, and injury of skeletal muscle (rhabdomyolysis) are all characteristics of peripheral tissue damage. Severe heat stroke tends to be complicated by rhabdomyolysis, especially in patients with exertional heat stroke. Rhabdomyolysis may lead to systemic effects, including the local occurrence of compartment syndrome, hyperkalemic cardiac arrest, and/or lethal disseminated intravascular coagulopathy. Untreated heat stroke might exacerbate psychosis, lactic acidosis, consumptive coagulopathy, hematuria, pulmonary edema, renal failure, and other metabolic abnormalities. Core body temperature and level of consciousness are the most significant indicators to diagnose the severity of heat stroke and prevent unfavorable consequences. Heatstroke is a life-threatening illness if not promptly recognized and effectively treated.
DISCUSSION
This review highlighted that core body temperature and white blood cell count are significant contributing factors affecting heat stroke outcomes. Other factors contributing to the poor outcome include old age, low GCS, and prolonged hospital stay. The prevalence of both classic and exertional heatstroke can be reduced by certain simple preventive measures, such as avoiding strenuous activity in hot environments and reducing exposure to heat stress.

Cardiotocography (CTG) constitutes a major and generally used tool for the assessment of fetal well-being. Subjectivity is the main difficulty in the interpretation of CTG. Inter- and intra-observer variability are substantival features of the interpretation of CTGs. An auspicious answer for reduction of inter- and intra-observer variability is the computerized analysis of fetal heart rate (FHR). Moreover, computerized analysis contributes to the reduction of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. The aim of the present review was to compare the visual and computerized analysis of CTG for establishing whether computerized CTG was related to better perinatal outcomes. Three electronic medical related databases (PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane) were searched from May to June 2023 in order to find randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in English. Studies were evaluated for their methodological quality with the CONSORT checklist. The target population comprised pregnant or intrapartum women into cardiotocographic monitoring. The intervention was represented by the visual analysis of CTG, and the comparison intervention by the computerized analysis of CTG. Primary outcomes included adverse perinatal outcomes. A total of 47 studies relevant with the topic were examined. However, only five articles met all inclusion and methodological criteria; four of those demonstrated that computerized analysis had no significant reduction in the rate of metabolic acidosis or obstetric interventions, and one study found a lower incidence of adverse perinatal outcome with conventional CTG (with fetal blood sampling). However, all reviews propose further development of decision-support software and more large-scale RCTs in the future. The computerized analysis of FHR is a promising solution for the reduction of adverse perinatal outcomes and elimination of inter- and intra-observer variability.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
The ideal intravenous fluid for kidney transplantation has not been defined, despite the common use of normal saline during the peri-operative period. The high chloride content of normal saline is associated with an increased risk of hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis, which may in turn increase the risk of hyperkalaemia and delayed graft function. Balanced electrolyte solutions have a lower chloride content which may decrease this risk and avoid the need for dialysis due to hyperkalaemia in the immediate post-transplant period. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) addressing this issue have used biochemical outcomes to compare fluids and have been underpowered to address patient-centred outcomes such as delayed graft function.
OBJECTIVES
To examine the effect of lower-chloride solutions versus normal saline on delayed graft function, hyperkalaemia and acid-base status in kidney transplant recipients.
SEARCH METHODS
We searched the Cochrane Kidney and Transplant's Specialised Register to 26 November 2015 through contact with the Information Specialist using search terms relevant to this review.
SELECTION CRITERIA
RCTs of kidney transplant recipients that compared peri-operative intravenous lower-chloride solutions to normal saline were included.
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
Two independent investigators assessed studies for eligibility and risk of bias. Data from individual studies were extracted using standardised forms and pooled according to a published protocol. Summary estimates of effect were obtained using a random-effects model, and results were expressed as risk ratios (RR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) for dichotomous outcomes, and mean difference (MD) and 95% CI for continuous outcomes.
MAIN RESULTS
Six studies (477 participants) were included in the review. All participants were adult kidney transplant recipients and 70% of participants underwent live-donor kidney transplantation. The overall risk of bias was low for selection bias and unclear for remaining domains. There was no difference in the risk of delayed graft function (3 studies, 298 participants: RR 1.03, 95% CI 0.62 to 1.70) or hyperkalaemia (2 studies, 199 participants: RR 0.48, 95% CI 0.04 to 6.10) for participants who received balanced electrolyte solutions compared to normal saline. Intraoperative balanced electrolyte solutions compared to normal saline were associated with higher blood pH (3 studies, 193 participants: MD 0.07, 95% CI 0.05 to 0.09), higher serum bicarbonate (3 studies, 215 participants: MD 3.02 mEq/L, 95% CI 2.00 to 4.05) and lower serum chloride (3 studies, 215 participants: MD -9.93 mmol/L, 95% CI -19.96 to 0.11). There were four cases of graft loss in the normal saline group and one in the balanced electrolyte solution group, and four cases of acute rejection in the normal saline group compared to two cases in the balanced electrolyte solution group.
AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS
Balanced electrolyte solutions are associated with less hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis compared to normal saline, however it remains uncertain whether lower-chloride solutions lead to improved graft outcomes compared to normal saline.

Meta-Analysis Review
BACKGROUND
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynaecological cancers in the world. Rates of endometrial cancer are rising, in part because of rising obesity rates. Endometrial hyperplasia is a precancerous condition in women that can lead to endometrial cancer if left untreated. Endometrial hyperplasia occurs more commonly than endometrial cancer. Progesterone tablets currently used to treat women with endometrial hyperplasia are associated with adverse effects in up to 84% of women. The levonorgestrel intrauterine device (Mirena Coil, Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Whippany, NJ, USA) may improve compliance, but it is invasive, is not acceptable to all women, and is associated with irregular vaginal bleeding in 82% of cases. Therefore, an alternative treatment for women with endometrial hyperplasia is needed. Metformin, a drug that is often used to treat people with diabetes, has been shown in some human studies to reverse endometrial hyperplasia. However, the effectiveness and safety of metformin for treatment of endometrial hyperplasia remain uncertain.
OBJECTIVES
To determine the effectiveness and safety of metformin in treating women with endometrial hyperplasia.
SEARCH METHODS
We searched the Cochrane Gynaecology and Fertility Specialised Register, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, Embase, the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed, Google Scholar, OpenGrey, Latin American Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS), and two trials registers from inception to 10 January 2017. We searched the bibliographies of all included studies and reviews on this topic. We also handsearched the conference abstracts of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) 2015 and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) 2015.
SELECTION CRITERIA
We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and cross-over trials comparing metformin (used alone or in combination with other medical therapies) versus placebo or no treatment, any conventional medical treatment, or any other active intervention for women with histologically confirmed endometrial hyperplasia of any type.
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
Two review authors independently assessed studies for eligibility, extracted data from included studies, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. We resolved disagreements by discussion or by deferment to a third review author. When study details were missing, review authors contacted study authors. The primary outcome of this review was regression of endometrial hyperplasia histology (with or without atypia) towards normal histology. Secondary outcome measures included recurrence of endometrial hyperplasia, progression of endometrial hyperplasia to endometrial cancer, hysterectomy rate, abnormal uterine bleeding, health-related quality of life, and adverse effects during treatment.
MAIN RESULTS
We included three RCTs in which a total of 77 women took part. We rated the quality of the evidence as very low for all outcomes owing to very serious risk of bias (associated with poor reporting, attrition, and limitations in study design) and imprecision.We performed a meta-analysis of two trials with 59 participants. When metformin was compared with megestrol acetate in women with endometrial hyperplasia, we found insufficient evidence to determine whether there were differences between groups for the following outcomes: regression of endometrial hyperplasia histology towards normal histology (odds ratio (OR) 3.34, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.97 to 11.57, two RCTs, n = 59, very low-quality evidence), hysterectomy rates (OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.05 to 15.52, two RCTs, n = 59, very low-quality evidence), and rates of abnormal uterine bleeding (OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.05 to 15.52, two RCTs, n = 44 , very low-quality evidence). We found no data for recurrence of endometrial hyperplasia or health-related quality of life. Both studies (n = 59) provided data on progression of endometrial hyperplasia to endometrial cancer as well as one (n = 16) reporting some adverse effects in the metformin arm, notably nausea, thrombosis, lactic acidosis, abnormal liver and renal function among others.Another trial including 16 participants compared metformin plus megestrol acetate versus megestrol acetate alone in women with endometrial hyperplasia. We found insufficient evidence to determine whether there were differences between groups for the following outcomes: regression of endometrial hyperplasia histology towards normal histology (OR 9.00, 95% CI 0.94 to 86.52, one RCT, n = 16, very low-quality evidence), recurrence of endometrial hyperplasia among women who achieve regression (OR not estimable, no events recorded, one RCT, n = 8, very low-quality evidence), progression of endometrial hyperplasia to endometrial cancer (OR not estimable, no events recorded, one RCT, n = 13, very low-quality evidence), or hysterectomy rates (OR 0.29, 95% CI 0.01 to 8.37, one RCT, n = 16, very low-quality evidence). Investigators provided no data on abnormal uterine bleeding or health-related quality of life. In terms of adverse effects, three of eight participants (37.5%) in the metformin plus megestrol acetate study arm reported nausea.
AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS
At present, evidence is insufficient to support or refute the use of metformin alone or in combination with standard therapy - specifically, megestrol acetate - versus megestrol acetate alone, for treatment of endometrial hyperplasia. Robustly designed and adequately powered randomised controlled trials yielding long-term outcome data are needed to address this clinical question.

BACKGROUND
Insulin pump therapy is a real breakthrough in managing diabetes Mellitus, particularly in children. It can deliver a tiny amount of insulin and decreases the need for frequent needle injections. It also helps to maintain adequate and optimal glycemic control to reduce the risk of metabolic derangements in different tissues. Children are suitable candidates for pump therapy as they need a more freestyle and proper metabolic control to ensure adequate growth and development. Therefore, children and their caregivers should have proper education and training and understand the proper use of insulin pumps to achieve successful pump therapy. The pump therapy continuously improves to enhance its performance and increase its simulation of the human pancreas. Nonetheless, there is yet a long way to reach the desired goal.
AIM
To review discusses the history of pump development, its indications, types, proper use, special conditions that may enface the children and their families while using the pump, its general care, and its advantages and disadvantages.
METHODS
We conducted comprehensive literature searches of electronic databases until June 30, 2022, related to pump therapy in children and published in the English language.
RESULTS
We included 118 articles concerned with insulin pumps, 61 were reviews, systemic reviews, and meta-analyses, 47 were primary research studies with strong design, and ten were guidelines.
CONCLUSION
The insulin pump provides fewer needles and can provide very tiny insulin doses, a convenient and more flexible way to modify the needed insulin physiologically, like the human pancreas, and can offer adequate and optimal glycemic control to reduce the risk of metabolic derangements in different tissues.
