“…Regarding the reason for consultation, we found that dyspnea was mostly (86.8%) found in our patients. This result is consistent with that of Manga et al [12] in 2020 in Senegal who reported that dyspnea was the main reason for consultation in the majority of cases with a frequency of 94.40%. The high frequency of dyspnea reflects the advanced stage of heart failure.…”

Introduction: Heart and kidney diseases are common among patients admitted to hospital and they coexist in a significant number of cases. The interactions between the cardiovascular system and the kidney have been known and described for many years and have led to the description of cardio-renal syndrome. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency; to describe the clinical, etiological and prognostic aspects of acute renal failure in patients hospitalized for chronic congestive heart failure. Method: This was a descriptive retrospective study from January 2, 2018 to December 31, 2022. Included in this study were all the complete records of patients hospitalized for chronic congestive heart failure with serum creatinine ≥120 µmol/I. We're not included in this study, incomplete files, records of patients hospitalized for other pathologies, records of patients hospitalized for chronic congestive heart failure with normal renal function. Our study variables were qualitative and quantitative divided into clinical, paraclinical and prognostic data. Our data were analyzed using the EPI-info 7.2.2.6 software. Data entry and presentation were carried out using Word, Excel and PowerPoint from the 2016 Office Pack. Results: We collected 830 files of which 114 met our selection criteria, a frequency of 13.73%. The mean age of the patients was 47 ± 19 years. The F/M sex ratio was 1.23. The dominant etiologies were hypertension followed by diabetes with respectively 60.5% and 23.7%. Toxic factors including tobacco accounted for 7.9% of cases. Dyspnea accounted for 86.8%. Most of our patients were grade 3 or 36% based on systolic blood pressure on admission How to cite this paper:

The purpose of this study is to investigate the risk factors for postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with traumatic spinal fractures complicated with Spinal Cord Injury(SCI). We conducted a retrospective analysis of 110 patients with traumatic spinal fractures and SCI admitted to our hospital from March 2021 to April 2024. DVT was diagnosed using ultrasound. Patient history, general data, surgical data, laboratory tests, and thromboelastogram (TEG) results were collected. The patients were divided into a DVT group and a non-DVT group according to the results of ultrasound one week after surgery. The risk factors and diagnostic value were analyzed using binary logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves in both univariate and multivariate analyses. Multivariate and ROC analysis results showed that D-dimer, lower extremity, duration of bedrest, and MA values of TEG were independent risk factors for DVT in SCI, with D-dimer having the highest diagnostic value (AUC = 0.883). The AUC values for lower extremity, duration of bedrest, and MA were 0.731, 0.750, and 0.625. In conclusion, Postoperative D-dimer > 5.065 mg/l, lower extremity < 3, duration of bedrest, and MA value of TEG are independent risk factors for postoperative DVT in SCI patients, D-dimer having the highest diagnostic value. When the above risk factors occur, clinicians need to be vigilant and take appropriate prevention and treatment measures.
