“…Almost all of the CKD patients in this study had advanced stage chronic kidney disease were in stages 4 and 5, respectively that is, by that moment kidney replacement therapy is very essential. This could be attributed not only to the low socio-economic level of the populations, but also to the under-medicalization in developing countries with the lack of awareness of the population in the face of the warning symptoms of kidney disease [13].…”

Introduction: Anemia is one of the most common complications of kidney failure. The kidney is responsible for the production of erythropoietin, a key hormone in erythropoiesis. Insufficient production of erythropoietin due to impaired kidney functions and also inflammation could explain this anemia. This study aimed at contributing to a better understanding of the mechanisms of erythropoietin in anemia observed in kidney failure. Methods: The study population consisted of 138 people: 92 with chronic renal failure (46 not on dialysis, 46 on hemodialysis) and 46 voluntaries as control without kidney failure. Serum concentrations of urea, creatinine, C-reactive protein (CRP), serum iron, ferritin and transferrin were determined using the Cobas C311 Hitachi machine. The erythropoietin assay was performed on the ELISA chain. Results: Lower mean values of EPO, increased CRP and decreased iron were observed in CKF patients (EPO: 5.66 ± 0.97 mIU / L; CRP: 45 ± 7.46 mg / l ; Iron: 12.46 ± 0.85 µmol / l), and patients under dialysis (EPO: 9 ± 0.51 mIU / L; CRP: 9 ± 2.66 mg / l; Iron: 10.07 ± 0.54 µmol / l) compared to controls (EPO: 18 ± 1.29 mIU / L; CRP: 2 ± 0.30 mg / l; Iron: 15.85 ± 0.56 µmol / l). Conclusion: Anemia in chronic renal failure is thought to be due to an erythropoietin deficiency but also to an exacerbation of inflammation with a disruption of the iron status.

Introduction: Hypertensive emergencies are a reality in the cardiology department of the Ignace Deen National Hospital. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical, therapeutic and evolutionary profile of hypertensive emergencies in the cardiology department of the Ignace Deen National Hospital. Methods: This was a longitudinal descriptive study of patients admitted to the cardiology department of the Ignace Deen National Hospital for hypertensive emergencies, over a period of six (6) months from 1 October 2020 to 31 March 2021. Results: Among the 638 patients admitted to the cardiology department during the study period, 102 cases of hypertensive emergencies were identified, representing a frequency of 15.99%. The mean age of the patients was 56.65 ± 13.33 years, with extremes of 23 and 90 years, and the sex ratio was 1.91 in favour of men. The associated cardiovascular risk factors were: age (76.47%), smoking (41.18%), sedentary lifestyle (31.37%), obesity (16.67%), dyslipidaemia (12.75%), diabetes (11.76%) and excessive alcohol consumption (11.76%). The various clinical pictures found were: acute pulmonary oedema 39 cases (38.23%), acute coronary syndrome 31 cases (30.39%), stroke 17 cases (16.67%), hypertensive encephalopathy 11 cases (10.78%), acute renal failure 3 cases (2.94%) and aortic dissection 1 case (0.98%). The drugs used on admission were calcium antagonists (Nicardipine 10mg) in 58 cases (56.86%), diuretics (Furosemide 20mg) in 44 cases (43.13%), nitrates (Risordan 20mg) in 39 cases (38.23%) and beta-blockers in 31 cases (30.39%). In terms of outcome, 88 (86.27%) patients had improved. However, 12 (11.76%) deaths were recorded. Conclusion: Hypertensive
