Cardiorenal Syndrome Type 1 Pathophysiological Crosstalk Leading to Combined Heart and Kidney Dysfunction in the Setting of Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure
No full textCardiorenal syndrome (CRS) type 1 is characterized as the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) and dysfunction in the patient with acute cardiac illness, most commonly acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). There is evidence in the literature supporting multiple pathophysiological mechanisms operating simultaneously and sequentially to result in the clinical syndrome characterized by a rise in serum creatinine, oliguria, diuretic resistance, and in many cases, worsening of ADHF symptoms. The milieu of chronic kidney disease has associated factors including obesity, cachexia, hypertension, diabetes, proteinuria, uremic solute retention, anemia, and repeated subclinical AKI events all work to escalate individual risk of CRS in the setting of ADHF. All of these conditions have been linked to cardiac and renal fibrosis. In the hospitalized patient, hemodynamic changes leading to venous renal congestion, neurohormonal activation, hypothalamic-pituitary stress reaction, inflammation and immune cell signaling, systemic endotoxemic exposure from the gut, superimposed infection, and iatrogenesis all contribute to CRS type 1. The final common pathway of bidirectional organ injury appears to be cellular, tissue, and systemic oxidative stress that exacerbate organ function. This review explores in detail the pathophysiological pathways that put a patient at risk and then effectuate the vicious cycle now recognized as CRS type 1

GENIAL JOHN MCCULLOUGH: ACTOR AND MANAGER
No full textIn the last few years of his life, tragedian John Henry McCullough was one of the most popular and successful actors on the American stage, earning an average of $50,000 a year. His career followed the ideal rags-to-riches theme: a poor, uneducated Irish immigrant, through hard, diligent work, rises to a position of national prominence. Born in the small village of Blakes, Londonderry Province, Ireland, on November 14, 1832, McCullough immigrated to New York in the spring of 1847 and settled in Philadelphia. He learned how to write, and read extensively to educate himself. He became interested in the theatre and began his first professional engagement at the Arch Street Theatre in the fall of 1857. Beginning with the 1861-62 season, McCullough played second leading roles in support of Edwin Forrest for five years. In the spring of 1866, McCullough accompanied Forrest to San Francisco; he remained to open the California Theatre in January of 1869, turning the California into one of the best managed stock theatres in the country, and establishing himself as a favorite actor on the west coast. McCullough began touring the country in 1873; by 1878 he had become so successful that he formed his own combination company, with which he toured until his career ended in September, 1884. He died in Philadelphia a year later, on November 8, 1885. McCullough acted in the majority of the tragedies popular during those days, among them Hamlet, Othello, Richard III, King Lear, Macbeth, Julius Caesar, and Richelieu. His most popular play was Sheridan Knowles\u27 Virginius. John Ranken Towse of the New York Evening Post described his characterization of the Roman father as robust and manly, his face Roman, his gestures strong and dignified, and his voice full and generally musical. Called Genial John by his close associates, McCullough gave freely of both his time and money. In private life, he had a reputation for being as honest and straightforward as the Roman characters that became his specialty. As long as Victorian society clung to the values represented in characters who were heroic, honest, loyal to family and country, and noble, Virginius would seem to offer essential truths for all time. While McCullough sought to make his acting more subtle like Edwin Booth\u27s by studying Delsarte techniques, the romantic style of both actors was to disappear from the stage by 1900, to be replaced by a style that adhered more closely to the appearance of everyday life.

Current Risk of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Angiography and Intervention: A Reappraisal of the Literature
No full textContrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is the acute impairment of renal function further to the intravascular administration of iodinated contrast media, and occurs most frequently after coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography. CI-AKI has been associated with the development of acute renal failure, worsening of chronic kidney disease, requirement for dialysis, prolonged hospital stay, and higher mortality rates and health care costs. Recently, a number of studies suggested that contrast media exposure might not be the causative agent in the occurrence of acute kidney injury, particularly in stable patients who receive small to moderate amounts of contrast media. However, those who undergo coronary angiography and intervention are indeed subject to an increased hazard of CI-AKI, in view of a more significant contrast media exposure as well as the presence of concomitant risk factors. Solid randomized clinical trials are therefore required to identify preventative strategies to reduce the risk of CI-AKI and its complications in these patients
