Salt wasting syndrome in brain trauma patients: a pathophysiologic approach using sodium balance and urinary biochemical analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:To explore the underlying mechanisms leading to the occurrence of hyponatremia and enhanced urinary sodium excretion in brain trauma patients using sodium balance and urinary biochemical analysis. METHODS:We conducted a retrospective analysis of a local database prospectively collected in 60 brain trauma patients without chronic renal dysfunction. Metabolic and hemodynamic parameters were averaged over three consecutive periods over the first seven days after admission. The main outcome investigated in this study was the occurrence of at least one episode of hyponatremia. RESULTS:Over the study period, there was a prompt decrease in sodium balance (163?±?193 vs. -12?±?154?mmol/day, p?

A Pathophysiologic Approach to Biomarkers in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.

Project description:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute-onset hypoxic condition with radiographic bilateral lung infiltration. It is characterized by an acute exudative phase combining diffuse alveolar damage and lung edema followed by a later fibroproliferative phase. Despite an improved understanding of ARDS pathobiology, our ability to predict the development of ARDS and risk-stratify patients with the disease remains limited. Biomarkers may help to identify patients at the highest risk of developing ARDS, assess response to therapy, predict outcome, and optimize enrollment in clinical trials. After a short description of ARDS pathobiology, here, we review the scientific evidence that supports the value of various ARDS biomarkers with regard to their major biological roles in ARDS-associated lung injury and/or repair. Ongoing research aims at identifying and characterizing novel biomarkers, in order to highlight relevant mechanistic explorations of lung injury and repair, and to ultimately develop innovative therapeutic approaches for ARDS patients. This review will focus on the pathophysiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic implications of biomarkers in ARDS and on their utility to ultimately improve patient care.

Dietary potassium restriction attenuates urinary sodium wasting in the generalized form of pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1.

Project description:Owing to its rarity and severe nature, the treatment for generalized pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1), a genetic disorder in the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), is exclusively experience-based. In particular, the usefulness of dietary potassium restriction in PHA1 remains unclear with the absence of theoretical background to elucidate its utility. First, we demonstrated the effect of potassium restriction in a 13-month-old patient with ENaC γ-subunit gene mutations via a retrospective chart review; reduction of daily dietary potassium intake from 40 to 20 mEq induced rapid restoration of volume depletion, as evidenced by weight gain, elevation of the serum sodium level from 133 to 141 mEq/L, decreased urinary sodium excretion, and normalized renin activity. The serum potassium level decreased from 5.6 to 4.5 mEq/L. Next, we attempted to elucidate the pathophysiological basis of the usefulness of potassium restriction, leveraged by the increased knowledge regarding the roles of with-no-lysine kinases (WNKs) in the distal nephron. When potassium is restricted, the WNK signal will turn "on" in the distal nephron via reduction in the intracellular chloride level. Consequently, the sodium reabsorption from the Na+Cl- cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule and possibly from pendrin in the β-intercalated cell will increase. Thus, potassium restriction causes NCC and pendrin to compensate for the non-functional ENaC in the collecting duct. In conclusion, dietary potassium restriction is one of the indispensable treatments for generalized PHA1.

Tubercular meningitis presenting as cerebral salt wasting syndrome in an adult: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionCerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSWS) is a cause of hyponatremia in the setting of intracranial pathologies such as Central Nervous System (CNS) trauma, infections, and tumors. It is important to differentiate CSWS from the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) as their management differs. CSWS leads to hypovolemia as opposed to euvolemia or hypervolemia in SIADH. SIADH is managed with fluid restriction and this could worsen CSWS which is managed with adminstration of intravenous crystalloids to correct hyponatremia.Case summaryA 42-year-old male was admitted after a week of low-grade fever with easy fatigability, hypersomnolence, and excessive thirst. He had polyuria which started 5 days before presentation, and unintentionally lost 3 kg of weight in the past month. He had orthostatic hypotension, and was dehydrated, but vital signs were normal with the exception of his temperature. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis revealed a glucose of 42 mg/dl, protein 170 mg/dl, cell count 28/mm3 with 65% lymphocytes which was consistant with tubercular meningitis. CSF AFB culture was positive in addition to a positive CSF PCR for M. tuberculosis.DiscussionPresentation of CNS infection with tuberculosis may be non-specific and its insidious onset could lead to delayed or missed diagnosis; however persistent constitutional symptoms and signs with history of weight loss and a close contact with tuberculosis may raise the possibility of tuberculosis. Early diagnosis and treatment has an excellent prognosis, but any delay contributes to death and disability despite anti-tubercular drug therapy.CSWS should be managed with salt and volume replacement, but more importantly, the causative CNS insult should also be confirmed and addressed.

Urinary Extracellular Vesicles and Salt-Losing Tubulopathies: A Proteomic Approach.

Project description:Renal tubular cells release urinary extracellular vesicles (uEV) that are considered a promising source of molecular markers for renal dysfunction and injury. We investigated uEV proteomes of patients with hereditary salt-losing tubulopathies (SLTs), focusing on those caused by Gitelman and Bartter (BS) syndromes, to provide potential markers for differential diagnosis. Second morning urine was collected from patients with genetically proven SLTs and uEV were isolated by the ultracentrifugation-based protocol. The uEV proteome was run through a diagonal bidimensional electrophoresis (16BAC/SDS-PAGE), to improve hydrophobic protein resolution. Sixteen differential spots from the proteome of two variants (BS2 and BS3) were analysed by nLC-ESI-MS/MS after in-gel tryptic digestion. A total of 167 protein species were identified from 7 BS2 spots and 9 BS3 spot. Most of these proteins were membrane-associated proteins, in particular transmembrane proteins, and were related to typical renal functions. The differential content of some uEV was then validated by immunoblotting. Our work suggests that uEV proteomics represents a promising strategy for the identification of differential SLT proteins. This could play a role in understanding the pathophysiological disease mechanisms and may support the recognition of different syndromes.

Post-cytokine-release Salt Wasting as Inverse Tumor Lysis Syndrome in a Non-cerebral Natural Killer-cell Neoplasm.

Project description:The pathogenesis of cerebral/renal salt-wasting syndrome remains unknown. We herein present a case of salt-wasting syndrome with a natural killer-cell neoplasm without cerebral invasion. A 78-year-old man with hemophagocytic syndrome received two cycles of chemotherapy that did not induce tumor lysis syndrome, but repeatedly caused polyuria and natriuresis. The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α in the neoplasm led us to hypothesize that an oncolysis-induced cytokine storm may have caused renal tubular damage and salt wasting. Our theory may explain the pathogenic mechanism of cerebral/renal salt-wasting syndrome associated with other entities, including cerebral disorders, owing to the elevation of cytokine levels after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Effect of South Africa's interim mandatory salt reduction programme on urinary sodium excretion and blood pressure.

Project description:South Africa implemented legislation in June 2016 mandating maximum sodium (Na) levels in processed foods. A pre-post impact evaluation assessed whether the interim legislative approach reduced salt intake and blood pressure. Baseline Na intake was assessed in a nested cohort of the WHO Study on global AGEing and adult health (WHO-SAGE) Wave 2 (Aug-Dec 2015). 24-hour urine samples were collected in a random subsample (n = 1,299; of which n = 750 were considered valid (volume ≥ 300 mL and creatinine ≥ 4 mmol/day (women) or ≥ 6 mmol/day (men))). Follow-up urine samples were collected in Wave 3 (Jun 2018-Jun 2019), with replacements included for those lost to follow-up (n = 1,189; n = 548 valid). In those aged 18 - 49y, median salt intake was 7.8 (4.7, 12.0) g/day in W2 (n = 274), remaining similar in the W3 sample (7.7 (4.9, 11.3) g salt/day (n = 92); P = 0.569). In older adults (50 + y), median salt intake was 5.8 (4.0, 8.5) g/day (n = 467) in W2, and 6.0 (4.0, 8.6) g/day (n = 455) in W3 (P = 0.721). Controlling for differences in background characteristics, overall salt intake dropped by 1.15 g/day (P = 0.028). 24hr urinary Na concentrations from a countrywide South African sample suggest that salt intakes have dropped during the interim phase of mandatory sodium legislation. Further measurement of population level salt intake following stricter Na targets, enforced from June 2019, is necessary.

Ultra-long-term human salt balance studies reveal interrelations between sodium, potassium, and chloride intake and excretion.

Project description:BackgroundThe intake of sodium, chloride, and potassium is considered important to healthy nutrition and cardiovascular disease risk. Estimating the intake of these electrolytes is difficult and usually predicated on urine collections, commonly for 24 h, which are considered the gold standard. We reported on data earlier for sodium but not for potassium or chloride.ObjectiveWe were able to test the value of 24-h urine collections in a unique, ultra-long-term balance study conducted during a simulated trip to Mars.DesignFour healthy men were observed while ingesting 12 g salt/d, 9 g salt/d, and 6 g salt/d, while their potassium intake was maintained at 4 g/d for 105 d. Six healthy men were studied while ingesting 12 g salt/d, 9 g salt/d, and 6 g salt/d, with a re-exposure of 12 g/d, while their potassium intake was maintained at 4 g/d for 205 d. Food intake and other constituents were recorded every day for each subject. All urine output was collected daily.ResultsLong-term urine recovery rates for all 3 electrolytes were very high. Rather than the expected constant daily excretion related to daily intake, we observed remarkable daily variation in excretion, with a 7-d infradian rhythm at a relatively constant intake. We monitored 24-h aldosterone excretion in these studies and found that aldosterone appeared to be the regulator for all 3 electrolytes. We report Bland-Altman analyses on the value of urine collections to estimate intake.ConclusionsA single 24-h urine collection cannot predict sodium, potassium, or chloride intake; thus, multiple collections are necessary. This information is important when assessing electrolyte intake in individuals.

Association of Antihypertensive Effects of Esaxerenone with the Internal Sodium Balance in Dahl Salt-Sensitive Hypertensive Rats.

Project description:BackgroundThe nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor blocker esaxerenone is effective in reducing blood pressure (BP).ObjectiveIn this study, we investigated esaxerenone-driven sodium homeostasis and its association with changes in BP in Dahl salt-sensitive (DSS) hypertensive rats.MethodsIn the different experimental setups, we evaluated BP by a radiotelemetry system, and sodium homeostasis was determined by an approach of sodium intake (food intake) and excretion (urinary excretion) in DSS rats with a low-salt diet (0.3% NaCl), high-salt diet (HSD, 8% NaCl), HSD plus 0.001% esaxerenone (w/w), and HSD plus 0.05% furosemide.ResultsHSD-fed DSS rats showed a dramatic increase in BP with a non-dipper pattern, while esaxerenone treatment, but not furosemide, significantly reduced BP with a dipper pattern. The cumulative sodium excretion in the active period was significantly elevated in esaxerenone- and furosemide-treated rats compared with their HSD-fed counterparts. Sodium content in the skin, skinned carcass, and total body tended to be lower in esaxerenone-treated rats than in their HSD-fed counterparts, while these values were unchanged in furosemide-treated rats. Consistently, sodium balance tended to be reduced in esaxerenone-treated rats during the active period. Histological evaluation showed that esaxerenone, but not furosemide, treatment attenuated glomerulosclerosis, tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and urinary protein excretion induced by high salt loading.ConclusionsCollectively, these findings suggest that an esaxerenone treatment-induced reduction in BP and renoprotection are associated with body sodium homeostasis in salt-loaded DSS rats.

Urinary Extracellular Vesicle Protein Profiling and Endogenous Lithium Clearance Support Excessive Renal Sodium Wasting and Water Reabsorption in Thiazide-Induced Hyponatremia.

Project description:IntroductionThiazide diuretics are among the most widely used antihypertensive medications worldwide. Thiazide-induced hyponatremia (TIH) is 1 of their most clinically significant adverse effects. A priori TIH must result from excessive saliuresis and/or water reabsorption. We hypothesized that pathways regulating the thiazide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransporter NCC and the water channel aquaporin-2 (AQP2) may be involved. Our aim was to assess whether patients with TIH would show evidence of altered NCC and AQP2 expression in urinary extracellular vesicles (UEVs), and also whether abnormalities of renal sodium reabsorption would be evident using endogenous lithium clearance (ELC).MethodsBlood and urine samples were donated by patients admitted to hospital with acute symptomatic TIH, after recovery to normonatremia, and also from normonatremic controls on and off thiazides. Urinary extracellular vesicles were isolated and target proteins evaluated by western blotting and by nanoparticle tracking analysis. Endogenous lithium clearance was assessed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.ResultsAnalysis of UEVs by western blotting showed that patients with acute TIH displayed reduced total NCC and increased phospho-NCC and AQP2 relative to appropriate control groups; smaller differences in NCC and AQP2 expression persisted after recovery from TIH. These findings were confirmed by nanoparticle tracking analysis. Renal ELC was lower in acute TIH compared to that in controls and convalescent case patients.ConclusionReduced NCC expression and increased AQP2 expression would be expected to result in saliuresis and water reabsorption in TIH patients. This study raises the possibility that UEV analysis may be of diagnostic utility in less clear-cut cases of thiazide-associated hyponatremia, and may help to identify patients at risk for TIH before thiazide initiation.

Cerebral Salt Wasting Syndrome (CSW): An unusual cause of hypovolemia after spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage successfully treated with fludrocortisone.

Project description:Our objective is to demonstrate the interest of thinking about Cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSW) in front of hyponatremia with severe hypovolemia after a brain injury, and at the same time the interest to differentiate between Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion (SIADH) and Cerebral salt wasting syndrome (CSW) as two etiologies to be evoked in front of a hyponatremia with brain injury. Case report: We report the case of a 63-year-old patient with a recent history of hemorrhagic stroke admitted for severe hypovolemic shock in whom the investigations find a very deep hypotonic hyponatremia secondary to a cerebral salt wasting syndrome successfully treated with fludrocortisone. Discussion: CWS is characterized by hypotonic hyponatremia associated with cerebral associated with hypovolemia, the difficulty of the diagnosis is explained by the points of convergences with SIADH which is also presented with hyponatremia. The treatment is based on filling with saline, if the symptoms are severe, hypertonic saline has its place. Fludrocortisone has proven its effectiveness in the correction of refractory hyponatremia in CWS. Conclusion: It is essential to differentiate between hyponatremia in CWS and hyponatremia in SIADH because the medical care is categorically different.
