Use of artisanal simulators in the ultrasound training for invasive procedures in nephrology: venous access and renal biopsy.
CONCLUSION: The simulators described, were extremely useful for simulating venous access and renal biopsy guided by ultrasonography, enabling training to reduce the failure rate in punctures and the potential complications associated with the described procedures.

Effect of spironolactone on the progression of coronary calcification in peritoneal dialysis patients: a pilot study.
CONCLUSION: In peritoneal dialysis patients, spironolactone did not attenuate the progression of CC. However, large-scale studies are needed to confirm this observation. Disorders of mineral metabolism and dyslipidemia are involved in the progression of CC. PMID: 31419271 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Metabolic acidosis in hemodialysis: a neglected problem in Brazil.
CONCLUSION: The findings were in agreement with global data reported in previous studies. However, because the sample was relatively small and non-representative of the Brazilian population, a more comprehensive study, addressing national data is necessary to substantiate our findings.

Point-of-care ultrasonography in nephrology: a cross-sectional national survey among Brazilian nephrologists.
CONCLUSION: Most of the Brazilian nephrologists interviewed were not trained in US; however, almost all of the research participants expressed an interest in learning to use POCUS in nephrological practice. PMID: 33022029 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Is the Fistula First Approach still valid?
Discussion points are: (1) the questionable survival benefit of AVFs over AVGs, if one takes into account the high rates of primary AVF failure; (2) the potential benefits of using AVGs for greater primary success; and (3) the questionable benefit of AVFs over AVGs in patients with shorter survival, such as the elderly. The high rate of primary failure and maturation procedures leads to prolonged use of catheters, and it is one of the weaknesses of the fistula first strategy. AVGs proved to be better than AVFs as a second access after the failure of a first AVF, and in patients with non-ideal vessels, with greater primary ...

Safety and efficacy of arteriovenous fistula angioplasties performed by nephrologists: report from a Brazilian interventional nephrology center
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that AVF angioplasty performed by trained nephrologists has acceptable success rates and patency, with a low incidence of major complications as well as a low need for hospitalization.PMID:34763352 | DOI:10.1590/2175-8239-JBN-2021-0085
