BACKGROUND
Nausea and vomiting are well-known gastrointestinal complications in chronic renal failure and are frequent indications for the commencement of dialysis. Although the administration of antiemetic drugs (metoclopramide and, recently, ondansetron) is usually mentioned, there are scanty data
The physiologic similarities between itch and nausea may not be evident initially, but they share the role of repelling irritants and toxins from the body by inducting scratching and vomiting, respectively. In addition, itch and nausea frequently occur together in certain conditions such as uraemia.
Anorexia, nausea and vomiting are common symptoms in patients with severe renal failure. Abnormalities in body fluids volume, serum electrolytes concentrations and acid-base balance and accumulations of uremic toxic substances might be primarily contributing to the suppression of appetite. However,
Dogs and cats with uremia may display abnormalities of essentially all parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Abnormalities may be mild or severe. They may result from inflammation, edema, erosions, ulceration, and/or necrosis. Clinical signs of GI complications or uremia may include anorexia,
The use of activated charcoal haemoperfusion can play a complementary role in the substitutive treatment of chronic uraemia. This study reports the preliminary results of a regular combined haemodialysis-haemoperfusion treatment. The effectiveness of this treatment was observed on the subjective
A 28-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with nausea, headache and weakness of the left hand. He had severe uremia without hypertension due to recurrent/chronic pyelonephritis. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed reversible vasogenic edema in the brainstem and bilateral frontal centrum

With marijuana legalization, clinicians need to be aware of Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS), which may masquerade as other disease states such as uremia.

A 37-year-old man with bipolar affective disease treated with lithium had progressive renal insufficiency presumably
Severe uremia is now a rare occurrence in most developed nations, and yet is still present in many countries of the world. It includes clinical manifestations such as calciphylaxis and uremic frost, which are now rarely seen. Patients with extremely high levels of blood urea nitrogen (above 175
Gastrointestinal mucosal abnormalities ranging from edema to ulceration occur in two thirds of patients dying of uremia. Early studies suggested that uremic patients on maintenance dialysis treatment were at increased risk of peptic ulceration but more recent data indicate that this is not so. Other
A multicentric study was carried out to investigate the safety and effectiveness of long-term treatment of chronic uremic patients by a regular combination of hemodialysis and charcoal hemoperfusion. 39 RDT patients from five dialysis centers were treated for up to 12 months. The combined treatment
A woman, now 28 years old, was diagnosed 6 years ago as chronic glomerulonephritis by renal biopsy. From August 15, 1975 she complained of nausea, loss of appetite and weight (about 7 kg within 2 weeks). Severe hypertension (200/130 mmHg), hyponatremia (123 mEq/liter), anemia, elevated plasma renin
In 25 patients with chronic renal failure treated by haemodialysis with acetate-37 mEq/l containing fluid, plasma free, total carnitine and acetate concentration before and after HD were assessed. The concentration of acetate was high-12 mmol/l in 4 patients in which carnitine concentration was low.
We conducted a prospective cohort study to detect any relationships between specific clinical features and laboratory indices at initiation of hemodialysis and long-term survival. One hundred and thirty-nine consecutive patients with chronic renal failure hospitalized to start maintenance
