“…It is crucial to aware the community about the early signs and symptoms of chronic kidney disease. (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21) A scientific study was done in 2018 regarding the relation between chronic kidney disease and cognitive functions and found out that vascular injury can be a major cause of it. The deposition of calcium in the blood vessels makes the blood vessels stiff calcification appears.…”

For a long period of time it is believed that the ill effects of kidney disease often effect the cognitive functions. The association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been identified in many clinical studies. It is said that the improvement of the kidney function will improve the cognitive function of the individual. A 52 year old man was brought to medicine OPD with a complain of swelling of lower extremities and his family members complain about his loss of memory on some occasions. He was hospitalized and treatment was started using oral and intravenous medications.

Background: Miliary tuberculosis is the widespread dissemination of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is the result of hematogenous dissemination and is characterized by extensive miliary mottling of lungs and involvement of the spleen, liver, and other tissues. It may be found as pulmonary type or septicemic type or meningitic type. Coarctation of the Aorta is a distinct narrowing or long segment hypoplasia of the aortic arch, usually distal to the subclavian artery. The narrow aortic lumen may exist as preductal or postductal obstruction which depends upon the position of the obstruction about the ductus arteriosus. The lesion obstructs blood flow through the aorta, resulting in increased pressure and effort of the left ventricle. Patient presentation: We are presenting an 8-year-old male child who visited the pediatric outpatient unit with the symptoms of fever, cough, and increased work of breathing, he was admitted to PICU. He was a known case of congenital heart disease. He was diagnosed to have congenital heart disease at the age of 3 years when he was admitted to the hospital due to the bluish coloration of his palms and soles. He had a fever (100 degrees F), cough, and increased work of breathing for 15 days during normal daily activities. The patient had undergone a 2-D Echo showing a parachute mitral valve. He was treated with antibiotics and maintained saturation on O2 by CPAP. Symptoms such as Respiratory distress and cough are relieved after maintaining saturation O2 and medications. Conclusion: Coarctation of the Aorta is typically present at birth (congenital heart defect). Mild to severe symptoms are possible. The illness might not be discovered until an adult. Coarctation of the Aorta frequently coexists with other congenital cardiac abnormalities. There are different methods employed for the treatment of CoA in adults, including surgical or percutaneous balloon angioplasty with or without stent placement, and medical therapy. Miliary Tuberculosis is one type of tuberculosis. This condition is rare in people with a normal immune system. It’s more common in people whose immune system isn’t working right. This is called being immunocompromised. Often your lungs, bone marrow, and liver are affected by miliary TB, but it can also spread to the lining of your heart, your spinal cord and brain, and other parts of your body. Treatment strategies in a patient with Miliary tuberculosis require the same treatment as Tuberculosis (Antibiotics).

“…Surgery and trauma stress responses entail a variety of physiological responses. A significant effect is the stimulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway, which causes altered fluid balance, increased sodium and fluid retention, and decreased urine output [ 5 ]. Additionally, the activated inflammatory response causes vasodilatation and enhanced capillary wall permeability.…”

“…Falls and car accidents are the two main factors that cause traumatic brain injuries globally [ 4 ]. Head injuries are common in emergency departments worldwide, with over two million visits in North America and 400,000 in Europe [ 5 ]. A serious public health issue and the primary cause of mortality and disability is traumatic brain injury.…”

Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) or head trauma present challenges for emergency physicians and neurosurgeons. Traumatic brain injury is currently a community health issue. For the best possible care, it is crucial to understand the various helpful therapy techniques in the pre-operative and pre-hospital phases. The initial rapid infusion of large volumes of mannitol and a hypertonic crystalloid solution to restore blood pressure and blood volume is the current standard of care for people with combined hemorrhagic shock (HS) and traumatic brain injury. The selection and administration of fluids to trauma and traumatic brain injury patients may be especially helpful in preventing subsequent ischemic brain damage because of the hemodynamic stabilizing effects of these fluids in hypovolemic shock. Traumatic brain injury is an essential factor that may lead to disability and death in a patient. Traumatic brain damage can develop either as a direct result of the trauma or as a result of the initial harm. Significant neurologic problems, such as cranial nerve damage, dementia, seizures, and Alzheimer's disease, can develop after a traumatic brain injury. The comorbidity of the victims may also be significantly increased by additional psychiatric problems such as psychological diseases and other behavioral and cognitive sequels. We review the history of modern fluid therapy, complications after traumatic brain injury, and the use of fluid treatment for decompressive craniectomy and traumatic brain injury.
