“…The frequencies of normal and abnormal serum creatinine levels, the minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation in males and females in study population were determined by descriptive statistical analysis as summarized in table 2. HIV/AIDS patients hospitalize in a tertiary care center of India, reported that Acute renal failure was seen in 15% and CKD was found in 13% of HIV patients furthermore with elevated serum creatinine 8,13 . The reason why creatinine elevated among HIV infected patients would be due to the effect of anti-retroviral therapy treatments because some of them have nephrotoxicity which harm the renal parenchyma cells and lead to alteration of organ in removal of waste product from the body.…”

Background: Kidney diseases has been recognized as one of the challenging complications in HIV infected people. Hyponatremia and hyperkalemia are the most disturbed electrolytes associated with an increased risk of death both in hospitalized and in ambulatory HIV patients. Aim: The study aimed to assess the association between renal dysfunction and serum electrolytes disorders among HIV infected patients. Method: It was a retrospective study conducted at Muhororo district hospital from May up to July 2023. HIV infected patients were enrolled in the study and their serum creatinine, sodium, potassium and chloride were tested and the results analyzed by using SPSS version 22. A P-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significance. Result: Among 115 HIV infected patients, 67.8% were females and 32.1% were males. The Mean serum creatinine was elevated among HIV infected patients [1.01(mg/dl) ±0.27, 0.99(mg/dl) ±0.26], and 40.8% had hyponatremia, 8% had hypernatremia, 6% had hypokalemia 7.8% had hyperkalemia 17.3% had hypochloremia and 20% had hyperchloremia Mean serum sodium was slightly decreased [134.1(mmol/l) ±11.8], there was no change in mean of both serum K+ and CL_ [4.4 (mmol/l) SD±1 / 100.7(mmol/l) with SD±14.2 for serum Cl-]. Serum creatinine was significantly associated with Na+ and K+ [P=0.04, r=-0.19/ p=0.01, r= 0.22] however the correlation between Cl- and Serum creatinine was not statistically significant [P=0.3, r=-0.08]. Conclusion: The study found elevated serum creatinine and, the weak correlation between creatinine and electrolytes in HIV infected patients on ART. The present findings need to be confirmed with further studies with large sample size. HIV infected patients should change life style that predispose their health to the development of kidney diseases they must also stick on healthcare provider’s counselling.

“…In this regard, using microneedles (MNs) based sensors is an effective strategy to monitor the ISF analytes in a minimally invasive and rapid manner, without the need for expert personnel or using painful and complex devices [6] , [9] , [12] , [13] , [14] . Measuring biomarkers including electrolytes and pH, is crucial due to their role in metabolic processes including regulating nerves, kidneys, heart, and muscle cells [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] . pH was proven as a significant biomarker for monitoring health, given its impact on various biological processes.…”

“…In addition, the deficiency or imbalance of electrolytes may lead to and/or indicate the prevalence of a wide spectrum of disorders such as cardiovascular diseases including myocardial infarction and arrhythmias, neural diseases, muscular dysfunction, kidney disorders, osteoporosis, and more. A single electrolyte measurement is not sufficient and informative for health analysis and diagnosis; thus, they are usually measured together for a more informative health assessment [14] , [15] , several studies reported the importance of measuring both K + and Na + electrolytes simultaneously since the correlation and ratio between them have a superior diagnostic advantage for the evaluation of several health cases, including acute myocardial infarction and acute kidney injury [16] , [26] , [27] , [28] .…”
