Abstract
Oliguria is a clinical symptom characterized by decreased urine output, which can occur at any stage of acute kidney injury and also during renal replacement therapy. In some cases, oliguria may resolve with adjustment of blood purification dose or fluid management, while in others, it may suggest a need for further evaluation and intervention. It is important to determine the underlying cause of oliguria during renal replacement therapy and to develop an appropriate treatment plan. This review looks into the mechanisms of urine production to investigate the mechanism of oliguria during renal replacement therapy from two aspects: diminished glomerular filtration rate and tubular abnormalities. The above conditions all implying a renal oxygen supply-demand imbalance, which is the signal of worsening kidney injury. It also proposes a viable clinical pathway for the treatment and management of patients with acute kidney injury receiving renal replacement therapy.

Abstract
This interdisciplinary review explores the intricate nexus between HIV infection, nutrition, adrenal gland function, and cardiovascular health, highlighting a critical aspect of HIV management often overlooked in current literature. With the advent of antiretroviral therapy, the life expectancy of people living with HIV has dramatically improved, transforming HIV into a manageable chronic condition. However, this success brings forth new challenges, notably an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases among people living with HIV. We examine the normal physiology of the adrenal gland, including its role in mineral metabolism, a crucial facet of nutrition. We discuss the evolution of knowledge tying adrenal pathology to cardiovascular disease. We explore the impact of HIV on adrenal gland findings from a gross pathology perspective, as well as the clinical impact of adrenal insufficiency in HIV. The review further elucidates the role of nutrition in this context, considering the double burden of undernutrition and obesity prevalent in regions heavily affected by HIV. By aggregating findings from longitudinal studies and recent clinical trials, the review presents compelling evidence of increased cardiovascular disease among people living with HIV compared with people without HIV. It highlights the critical role of the adrenal glands in regulating nutrient metabolism and its implications for cardiovascular health, drawing attention to the potential for dietary interventions and targeted therapies to mitigate these risks. This review urges a paradigm shift in the management of HIV, advocating for a holistic approach that incorporates nutritional assessment and interventions into routine HIV care to address the complex interplay between HIV, adrenal function, and cardiovascular health. Through this lens, we offer insights into novel therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing cardiovascular risk in people living with HIV, contributing to the ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life and longevity in this population.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a well-known chemotherapeutic agent that can be associated with hyponatremia. It is known to be associated with a multitude of renal disorders including acute kidney injury with reduced glomerular filtration, Fanconi syndrome, and renal tubular acidosis, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and renal salt wasting syndrome. We report a case of an elderly male presenting with significant recurrent hyponatremia, and prerenal azotemia. With recent exposure to cisplatin along with significant hypovolemia and urinary loss of sodium, he was diagnosed to have cisplatin induced renal salt wasting syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In 2004, the term acute kidney injury (AKI) was introduced with the intention of broadening our understanding of rapid declines in renal function and to replace the historical terms of acute renal failure and acute tubular necrosis (ATN). Despite this evolution in terminology, the mechanisms of AKI have stayed largely elusive with the pathophysiological concepts of ATN remaining the mainstay in our understanding of AKI. SUMMARY The proximal tubule (PT), having the highest mitochondrial content in the kidney and relying heavily on oxidative phosphorylation to generate ATP, is vulnerable to ischaemic insults and mitochondrial dysfunction. Histologically, pathological changes in the PT are more consistent than changes to the glomeruli or the loop of Henle in AKI. Physiologically, activation of tubuloglomerular feedback due to PT dysfunction leads to an increase in preglomerular afferent arteriole resistance and a reduction in glomerular filtration. Pharmacologically, frusemide - a drug commonly used in the setting of oliguric AKI - is actively secreted by the PT and its diuretic effect is compromised by its failure to be secreted into the urine and thus be delivered to its site of action at the loop of Henle in AKI. Increases in the urinary, but not plasma biomarkers, of PT injury within 1 h of shock suggest that the PT as the initiation pathogenic target of AKI. KEY MESSAGE Therapeutic agents targeting specifically the PT epithelial cells, in particular its mitochondria - including amino acid ergothioneine and superoxide scavenger MitoTEMPO - show great promises in ameliorating AKI.

Abstract
The influence of excess salt intake on acute kidney injury (AKI) has not been examined precisely except for some clinical data, unlike in chronic kidney disease. Here, we addressed the influence of high salt (HS) on AKI and its underlying mechanisms in terms of the activity of circulating apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage (AIM, also called CD5L) protein, a facilitator of AKI repair. HS loading in mice subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (IR) resulted in high mortality with advanced renal tubular obstruction and marked exacerbation in biomarkers of proximal renal tubular damage. This AKI exacerbation appeared to be caused mainly by the reduced AIM dissociation from IgM pentamer in serum, as IgM-free AIM is indispensable for the removal of intratubular debris to facilitate AKI repair. Injection of recombinant AIM (rAIM) ameliorated the AKI induced by IR/HS, dramatically improving the tubular damage and mouse survival. The repair of lethal AKI by AIM was dependent on AIM/ kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) axis, as rAIM injection was not effective in KIM-1 deficient mice. Our results demonstrate that the inhibition of AIM dissociation from IgM is an important reason for the exacerbation of AKI by HS, that AIM is a strong therapeutic tool for severe AKI.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in critically ill children and adults, and sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) is the most frequent cause of AKI in the ICU. To date, no mechanistically targeted therapeutic interventions have been identified. High-throughput "omic" technologies (e.g., genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) offer a new angle of approach to achieve this end. In this review, we provide an update on the current understanding of SA-AKI pathophysiology. Omic technologies themselves are briefly discussed to facilitate interpretation of studies using them. We next summarize the body of SA-AKI research to date that has employed omic technologies. Importantly, omic studies are helping to elucidate a pathophysiology of SA-AKI centered around cellular stress responses, metabolic changes, and dysregulation of energy production that underlie its clinical features. Finally, we propose opportunities for future research using clinically relevant animal models, integrating multiple omic technologies and ultimately progressing to translational human studies focusing therapeutic strategies on targeted disease mechanisms.

Abstract
This review outlines the available data from the work of our group on renal hemodynamics, function, and oxygenation in patients who are critically ill with acute renal dysfunction, such as those with postoperative AKI, those in early clinical septic shock, in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, or in patients undergoing liver transplantation. We also provide information on renal hemodynamics, function, and oxygenation in patients with chronic renal impairment due to congestive heart failure. This review will argue that, for all of these groups of patients, the common denominator is that renal oxygenation is impaired due to a lower renal oxygen delivery or a pronounced increase in renal oxygen consumption.

Abstract
Although kidney oxygen tensions are heterogenous, and mostly below renal vein level, the nephron is highly dependent on aerobic metabolism for active tubular transport. This renders the kidney particularly susceptible to hypoxia, which is considered a main characteristic and driver of acute and chronic kidney injury, albeit the evidence supporting this assumption is not entirely conclusive. Kidney transplants are exposed to several conditions that may interfere with the balance between oxygen supply and consumption, and enhance hypoxia and hypoxic injury. These include conditions leading to and resulting from brain death of kidney donors, ischemia and reperfusion during organ donation, storage and transplantation, postoperative vascular complications, vasoconstriction induced by immunosuppression, and impaired perfusion resulting from interstitial edema, inflammation, and fibrosis. Acute graft injury, the immediate consequence of hypoxia and reperfusion, results in delayed graft function and increased risk of chronic graft failure. Although current strategies to alleviate hypoxic/ischemic graft injury focus on limiting injury (eg, by reducing cold and warm ischemia times), experimental evidence suggests that preconditioning through local or remote ischemia, or activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor pathway, can decrease hypoxic injury. In combination with ex vivo machine perfusion such approaches hold significant promise for improving transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
The endothelial glycocalyx (EG) is the most luminal layer of the blood vessel, growing on and within the vascular wall. Shedding of the EG plays a central role in many critical illnesses. Degradation of the EG is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Certain illnesses and iatrogenic interventions can cause degradation of the EG. It is not known whether restitution of the EG promotes the survival of the patient. First trials that focus on the reorganization and/or restitution of the EG seem promising. Nevertheless, the step "from bench to bedside" is still a big one.

Abstract
Editor’s Perspective
What We Already Know about This Topic
What This Article Tells Us That Is New
Background
Fluid resuscitation in hemorrhagic shock aims to restore hemodynamics and repair altered microcirculation. Hemodynamic coherence is the concordant performance of macro- and microcirculation. The present study on fluid therapy in hemorrhagic shock hypothesized that the choice of fluid (0.9% sodium chloride [saline group] or balanced 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 [hydroxyethyl starch group]) impacts on hemodynamic coherence.
Methods
After instrumentation, 10 sheep were bled up to 30 ml/kg body weight of blood stopping at a mean arterial pressure of 30 mmHg to establish hemorrhagic shock. To reestablish baseline mean arterial pressure, they received either saline or hydroxyethyl starch (each n = 5). Hemodynamic coherence was assessed by comparison of changes in mean arterial pressure and both perfused vessel density and microvascular flow index.
Results
Bleeding of 23 ml/kg blood [21; 30] (median [25th; 75th percentile]) in the saline group and 24 ml/kg [22; 25] (P = 0.916) in the hydroxyethyl starch group led to hemorrhagic shock. Fluid resuscitation reestablished baseline mean arterial pressure in all sheep of the hydroxyethyl starch group and in one sheep of the saline group. In the saline group 4,980 ml [3,312; 5,700] and in the hydroxyethyl starch group 610 ml [489; 615] of fluid were needed (P = 0.009). In hemorrhagic shock perfused vessel density (saline from 100% to 83% [49; 86]; hydroxyethyl starch from 100% to 74% [61; 80]) and microvascular flow index (saline from 3.1 [2.5; 3.3] to 2.0 [1.6; 2.3]; hydroxyethyl starch from 2.9 [2.9; 3.1] to 2.5 [2.3; 2.7]) decreased in both groups. After resuscitation both variables improved in the hydroxyethyl starch group (perfused vessel density: 125% [120; 147]; microvascular flow index: 3.4 [3.2; 3.5]), whereas in the saline group perfused vessel density further decreased (64% [62; 79]) and microvascular flow index increased less than in the hydroxyethyl starch group (2.7 [2.4; 2.8]; both P < 0.001 for saline vs. hydroxyethyl starch).
Conclusions
Resuscitation with hydroxyethyl starch maintained coherence in hemorrhagic shock. In contrast, saline only improved macro- but not microcirculation. Hemodynamic coherence might be influenced by the choice of resuscitation fluid.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with poor prognosis among patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Early documentation of impaired kidney function through simple examination may provide risk reduction in such patients. The present study aims to reveal an association between cellular casts and hospital-acquired AKI in AHF. This study included patients with AHF who underwent urinalysis, including urinary sediment analysis within 24 hours post admission. AKI was defined as an increase of ≥0.3 mg/dL within 48 hours or ≥1.5 times in serum creatinine level in contrast to baseline creatinine level. In this study, 114 patients with AHF (age, 75 ± 14 years; male, 59.7%) were included. Of them, 40 (35%) developed hospital-acquired AKI. Cellular casts were detected in 30 patients (26%) prior to AKI development and related to hospital-acquired AKI in the multivariate logistic regression analysis (odds ratio, 2.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.04–7.49; P = 0.041). In conclusion, cellular casts are observed occasionally in patients with AHF and potentially useful markers for development of AKI during hospitalization.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major public health problem that complicates 10-40% of hospital admissions. Importantly, AKI is independently associated with increased risk of progression to chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal disease, cardiovascular events, and increased risk of in-hospital and long-term mortality. The chloride content of intravenous fluid has garnered much attention over the last decade, as well as its association with excess use and adverse outcomes, including AKI. Numerous studies show that changes in serum chloride concentration, independent of serum sodium and bicarbonate, are associated with increased risk of AKI, morbidity, and mortality. This comprehensive review details the complex renal physiology regarding the role of chloride in regulating renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate, tubuloglomerular feedback, and tubular injury, as well as the findings of clinical research related to the chloride content of intravenous fluids, changes in serum chloride concentration, and AKI. Chloride is underappreciated in both physiology and pathophysiology. Although the exact mechanism is debated, avoidance of excessive chloride administration is a reasonable treatment option for all patients and especially in those at risk for AKI. Therefore, high-risk patients and those with "incipient" AKI should receive balanced solutions rather than normal saline to minimize the risk of AKI.

Abstract
Sepsis and acute kidney injury (AKI) synergistically increase morbidity and mortality in the ICU. How sepsis reduces glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and causes AKI is poorly understood; one proposed mechanism includes tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF). When sodium reabsorption by the proximal tubules is reduced in normal animals, the macula densa senses increased luminal sodium chloride, and then adenosine-1a receptor (A1aR) signaling triggers tubuloglomerular feedback, reducing GFR through afferent arteriole vasoconstriction. We measured GFR and systemic hemodynamics early during cecal ligation and puncture-induced sepsis in wild-type and A1aR-knockout mice. A miniaturized fluorometer was attached to the back of each mouse and recorded the clearance of FITC-sinistrin via transcutaneous fluorescence to monitor GFR. Clinical organ injury markers and cytokines were measured and hemodynamics monitored using implantable transducer telemetry devices. In wild-type mice, GFR was stable within 1 h after surgery, declined by 43% in the next hour, and then fell to less than 10% of baseline after 2 h and 45 min. In contrast, in A1aR-knockout mice GFR was 37% below baseline immediately after surgery and then gradually declined over 4 h. A1aR-knockout mice had similar organ injury and inflammatory responses, albeit with lower heart rate. We conclude that transcutaneous fluorescence can accurately monitor GFR and detect changes rapidly during sepsis. Tubuloglomerular feedback plays a complex role in sepsis; initially, TGF helps maintain GFR in the 1st hour, and over the subsequent 3 h, TGF causes GFR to plummet. By 18 h, TGF has no cumulative effect on renal or extrarenal organ damage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explain the paradigm of significant renal functional impairment despite preserved hemodynamics and histology in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury. DESIGN Prospective observational animal study. SETTING University research laboratory. SUBJECTS Male Wistar rats. INTERVENTION Using a fluid-resuscitated sublethal rat model of fecal peritonitis, changes in renal function were characterized in relation to global and renal hemodynamics, and histology at 6 and 24 hours (n = 6-10). Sham-operated animals were used as comparison (n = 8). Tubular cell mitochondrial function was assessed using multiphoton confocal imaging of live kidney slices incubated in septic serum. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS By 24 hours, serum creatinine was significantly elevated with a concurrent decrease in renal lactate clearance in septic animals compared with sham-operated and 6-hour septic animals. Renal uncoupling protein-2 was elevated in septic animals at 24 hours although tubular cell injury was minimal and mitochondrial ultrastructure in renal proximal tubular cells preserved. There was no significant change in global or renal hemodynamics and oxygen delivery/consumption between sham-operated and septic animals at both 6- and 24-hour timepoints. In the live kidney slice model, mitochondrial dysfunction was seen in proximal tubular epithelial cells incubated with septic serum with increased production of reactive oxygen species, and decreases in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and mitochondrial membrane potential. These effects were prevented by coincubation with the reactive oxygen species scavenger, 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidin-1-oxyl. CONCLUSIONS Renal dysfunction in sepsis occurs independently of hemodynamic instability or structural damage. Mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by circulating mediators that induce local oxidative stress may represent an important pathophysiologic mechanism.

Abstract
The science of regenerative medicine is arguably older than transplantation-the first major textbook was published in 1901-and a major regenerative medicine meeting took place in 1988, three years before the first Banff transplant pathology meeting. However, the subject of regenerative medicine/tissue engineering pathology has never received focused attention. Defining and classifying tissue engineering pathology is long overdue. In the next decades, the field of transplantation will enlarge at least tenfold, through a hybrid of tissue engineering combined with existing approaches to lessening the organ shortage. Gradually, transplantation pathologists will become tissue-(re-) engineering pathologists with enhanced skill sets to address concerns involving the use of bioengineered organs. We outline ways of categorizing abnormalities in tissue-engineered organs through traditional light microscopy or other modalities including biomarkers. We propose creating a new Banff classification of tissue engineering pathology to standardize and assess de novo bioengineered solid organs transplantable success in vivo. We recommend constructing a framework for a classification of tissue engineering pathology now with interdisciplinary consensus discussions to further develop and finalize the classification at future Banff Transplant Pathology meetings, in collaboration with the human cell atlas project. A possible nosology of pathologic abnormalities in tissue-engineered organs is suggested.

Abstract
An exaggerated, dysregulated host response to insults such as infection (i.e. sepsis), trauma and ischaemia-reperfusion injury can result in multiple organ dysfunction and death. While the focus of research in this area has largely centred on inflammation and immunity, a crucial missing link is the precise identification of mechanisms at the organ level that cause this physiological-biochemical failure. Any hypothesis must reconcile this functional organ failure with minimal signs of cell death, availability of oxygen, and (often) minimal early local inflammatory cell infiltrate. These failed organs also retain the capacity to usually recover, even those that are poorly regenerative. A metabolic-bioenergetic shutdown, akin to hibernation or aestivation, is the most plausible explanation currently advanced. This shutdown appears driven by a perfect storm of compromised mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation related to inhibition by excessive inflammatory mediators, direct oxidant stress, a tissue oxygen deficit in the unresuscitated phase, altered hormonal drive, and downregulation of genes encoding mitochondrial proteins. In addition, the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation may be affected by a substrate shift towards fat metabolism and increased uncoupling. A lack of sufficient ATP provision to fuel normal metabolic processes will drive downregulation of metabolism, and thus cellular functionality. In turn, a decrease in metabolism will provide negative feedback to the mitochondrion, inducing a bioenergetic shutdown. Arguably, these processes may offer protection against a prolonged inflammatory hit by sparing the cell from initiation of death pathways, thereby explaining the lack of significant morphological change. A narrow line may exist between adaptation and maladaptation. This places a considerable challenge on any therapeutic modulation to provide benefit rather than harm.

Abstract
RATIONALE It is unclear how septic shock causes acute kidney injury (AKI) and whether this is associated with histological change. OBJECTIVES We aimed to determine the nature and extent of changes in renal structure and function over time in an ovine model of septic shock. METHODS Fifteen sheep were instrumented with a renal artery flow probe and renal vein cannula. Ten were given intravenous Escherichia coli to induce septic shock, and five acted as controls. Animals were mechanically ventilated for 48 hours, while receiving protocol-guided parenteral fluids and a norepinephrine infusion to maintain mean arterial pressure. Renal biopsies were taken every 24 hours or whenever animals were oliguric for 2 hours. A renal pathologist, blinded to tissue source, systematically quantified histological appearance by light and electron microscopy for 31 prespecified structural changes. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Sheep given E. coli developed septic shock, oliguria, increased serum creatinine, and reduced creatinine clearance (AKI), but there were no changes over time in renal blood flow between groups (P > 0.30) or over time within groups (P > 0.50). Renal oxygen consumption increased only in nonseptic animals (P = 0.01), but there was no between-group difference in renal lactate flux (P > 0.50). There was little structural disturbance in all biopsies and, although some cellular appearances changed over time, the only difference between septic and nonseptic animals was mesangial expansion on electron microscopy. CONCLUSIONS In an intensive care-supported model of gram-negative septic shock, early AKI was not associated with changes in renal blood flow, oxygen delivery, or histological appearance. Other mechanisms must contribute to septic AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The etiology of renal dysfunction in sepsis is currently attributed to altered perfusion, microcirculatory abnormalities and cellular alterations. To clarify these mechanisms, we characterized the changes in renal perfusion and cortex metabolism in a large animal model of sepsis. METHODS We studied 12 adult female sheep randomized to peritonitis-induced sepsis (n = 8) or to sham procedure (n = 4). A flow probe was positioned around the renal artery to measure renal blood flow (RBF). Laser Doppler was used to measure regional flow in the kidney cortex and medulla. A microdialysis probe was inserted into the renal cortex to measure cortical glucose, lactate, and pyruvate. Fluid resuscitation was provided to keep pulmonary artery occlusion pressure at baseline levels. All animals were observed for 18 h. RESULTS Hypotension occurred after 9 h in the septic animals (P = 0.02 versus baseline). RBF and cortical flow were significantly lower than at baseline from 12 h in the septic animals (P = 0.01 and P = 0.03, respectively). Cortical lactate and pyruvate levels increased in the septic animals from 3 and from 6 h, respectively (both P = 0.02 versus baseline), and the L/P ratio from 15 h (P = 0.01). There was a correlation between cortical flow and cortical L/P ratio after shock onset (r = -0.60, P = 0.002) but not before. CONCLUSIONS In this peritonitis model, sepsis was associated with metabolic alterations that may reflect early induction of cortical glycolysis. Septic shock was associated with reduced renal perfusion and decreased cortical and medullary blood flow, followed by signs of anaerobic metabolism in the cortex when flow reductions became critical.

Abstract
The clinical diagnosis and recovery of acute kidney injury (AKI) are mainly based on the rapid decline of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and its subsequent recovery. The factors that determine kidney recovery and reduce the risk of subsequent progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD), however, are poorly understood. Thus, there is a need to better define the magnitude and time pattern of changes in kidney function during AKI and its recovery that go beyond GFR. Tubular transport regulates body homeostasis and the associated transport work is a primary determinant of the kidneys' energy needs. The tubular system is at the center of the pathophysiology of AKI and its recovery. In particular, proximal tubules and thick ascending limbs have been proposed to act as sensors, effectors and injury recipients of AKI stimuli. Surprisingly little attention has been given to aspects of tubular transport function in AKI and the relevance for kidney recovery. This review aims to outline changes in tubular transport function in AKI, discusses their potential consequences and relevance for the diagnosis and prognosis of AKI and its recovery, including changes in GFR, and poses the question whether tubular transport provides an opportunity for intervention to rest the tubular system, which may have consequences for the progression to CKD. © 2016 S.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between caffeine exposure and acute kidney injury (AKI) in very low birth weight (VLBW; ≤1500 g) neonates. STUDY DESIGN We retrospectively reviewed a cohort of 140 VLBW neonates consecutively admitted to the University of Virginia's neonatal intensive care unit from March 2011 to June 2012, excluding only those admitted >2 days of age or who died at <2 days after birth. We separately analyzed a subgroup of 44 neonates who received prolonged invasive respiratory support (mechanical ventilation for first 7 days after birth). The exposure of interest was caffeine exposure in the first week after birth. The primary outcome was AKI within the first 10 days after birth according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes system, modified to include only serum creatinine. RESULTS Caffeine exposure occurred in 72.1% of all patients and 54.5% of those who received prolonged invasive respiratory support. AKI occurred less frequently in neonates who received caffeine (all patients: 17.8% vs 43.6%; P = .002; prolonged invasive respiratory support: 29.2% vs 75.0%; P = .002). Caffeine exposure was associated with decreased odds for AKI in logistic regression models adjusted for sex, birth weight, gestational age, small for gestational age status, illness severity on admission, and receipt of indomethacin, invasive ventilation, dopamine, aminoglycosides, and vancomycin (all patients: OR 0.22; 95% CI 0.07-0.75, P = .02; prolonged invasive respiratory support subgroup: OR 0.06; 95% CI 0.01-0.57, P = .02). CONCLUSIONS In a cohort of VLBW neonates, those exposed to caffeine were less likely to experience AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid and sodium overload are a common problem in critically ill patients. Frusemide may result in diuresis in excess of natriuresis. The addition of indapamide may achieve a greater natriuresis, and also circumvent some of the problems associated with frusemide. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of adding indapamide to frusemide on diuresis, natriuresis, creatinine clearance and serum electrolytes. METHODS Fluid overloaded ICU patients were randomised to either intravenous frusemide (Group F) or intravenous frusemide and enteral indapamide (Group F + I). Comprehensive exclusion criteria were applied to address confounders. 24 hour urine was analysed for electrolytes and creatinine. Serum electrolytes were measured before and 24 hours after administration of diuretics. RESULTS Forty patients (20 in each group) were included in the study. The groups were similar in their baseline characteristics. Over the 24 h study period, patients in Group F + I, had a larger natriuresis (P = 0.01), chloride loss (P = 0.01) and kaliuresis (P = 0.047). Patients in Group F + I also had a greater 24 hour urinary creatinine clearance (P = 0.01). The 24 hour urine volume and fluid balance was similar between the groups. Patients in Group F had an increase in serum sodium (P = 0.04), while patients in Group F + I had a decrease in both serum chloride (P = 0.01) and peripheral oedema (P < 0.001) during the study duration. CONCLUSION In fluid overloaded ICU patients, addition of indapamide to frusemide led to a greater natriuresis and creatinine clearance. Such a strategy might be utilised in optimising sodium balance in ICU patients.

Abstract
Tissue oxygen tension is the partial pressure of oxygen within the interstitial space of an organ bed. As it represents the balance between local oxygen delivery and consumption at any given time, it offers a ready monitoring capability to assess the adequacy of tissue perfusion relative to local demands. This review covers the various methodologies used to measure tissue oxygen tension, describes the underlying physiological and pathophysiological principles, and summarizes human and laboratory data published to date.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To assess the role of diuretics in acute kidney injury (AKI) and their effectiveness in preventing AKI, achieving fluid balance, and decreasing progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). RECENT FINDINGS Diuretics are associated with increased risk for AKI. The theoretical advantage of diuretic-induced preservation of renal medullary oxygenation to prevent AKI has not been proven. A higher cumulative diuretic dose during the dialysis period can cause hypotension and increase mortality in a dose-dependent manner. Data on the use of forced euvolemic diuresis to prevent AKI remains controversial. Positive fluid balance has emerged as an independent predictor of adverse outcomes. Post-AKI furosemide dose had a favorable effect on mortality due in part to the reduction of positive fluid balance. There are exciting experimental data suggesting that spironolactone may prevent AKI once an ischemic insult has occurred and thus prevent the progression to CKD. SUMMARY Diuretics are ineffective and even detrimental in the prevention and treatment of AKI, and neither shorten the duration of AKI, nor reduce the need for renal replacement therapy. Diuretics have an important role in volume management in AKI, but they are not recommended for the prevention of AKI. There is increased emphasis on the prevention of progression of AKI to CKD.

Abstract
Diabetes is the single largest contributor to the growing prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and episodes of acute kidney injury (AKI) increase the risk of advanced CKD in diabetic patients. Here we discuss whether the pathophysiological changes that occur in the tubular system of the diabetic kidney affect the intrinsic susceptibility to AKI. There is abundant data showing that drug-induced nephrotoxicity is attenuated in rodents with experimental diabetes mellitus, and some mechanistic explanations have been provided, in particular in response to aminoglycosides. Besides downregulation in proximal tubular megalin, which mediates the aminoglycoside uptake in proximal tubules, a role for hyperglycemia-induced activation of regenerative mechanisms has been proposed. The available clinical data, however, indicates that diabetes is a risk factor for AKI, including aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity. While much needs to be learned about this disconnect, the isolated induction of diabetes in otherwise healthy young adult rodents may simply not fully mimic the influence that diabetes exerts in the setting of a critically ill and often elderly patient. We speculate that diabetic tubular growth and the associated molecular signature (including upregulation of TGF-β, senescence, and inflammation) set up the development of diabetic nephropathy and renal failure in part by increasing the susceptibility to AKI, which further promotes hypoxia and apoptosis. Considering the strong association between AKI episodes and the cumulative risk of developing advanced CKD in diabetes, strategies that reduce AKI in these patients are expected to help reduce the growing burden of end-stage renal disease.

Abstract
The human organism consists of evolutionary conserved mechanisms to prevent death from hypovolaemia. Intravenous fluid therapy to support these mechanisms had first been published about 180 years ago. The present review depicts the evolution of fluid therapy from early, not well-defined solutions up to modern balanced fluids. Notably, evidence accumulates that the most commonly used fluid (i.e. 0.9% saline) has no advantage over balanced solutions, increases the risk of acute kidney injury and should therefore be abandoned. Notably, in published trials, the prognostically important 'golden hours' of shock, where fluid therapy may be essential, have not been adequately addressed. It is therefore unclear whether negative data on colloids in some trials reflect real harm or rather inadequate use. Future studies should focus on optimal protocols for initiation, dosing and discontinuation of fluid therapy in specific disease entities. Moreover, the practice of de-resuscitation after fluid-based haemodynamic stabilization should be further investigated.

Abstract
The concept of homeostasis has been inextricably linked to the function of the kidneys for more than a century when it was recognized that the kidneys had the ability to maintain the "internal milieu" and allow organisms the "physiologic freedom" to move into varying environments and take in varying diets and fluids. Early ingenious, albeit rudimentary, experiments unlocked a wealth of secrets on the mechanisms involved in the formation of urine and renal handling of the gamut of electrolytes, as well as that of water, acid, and protein. Recent scientific advances have confirmed these prescient postulates such that the modern clinician is the beneficiary of a rich understanding of the nephron and the kidney's critical role in homeostasis down to the molecular level. This review summarizes those early achievements and provides a framework and introduction for the new CJASN series on renal physiology.

Abstract
Tissue hypoxia has been demonstrated, in both the renal cortex and medulla, during the acute phase of reperfusion after ischemia induced by occlusion of the aorta upstream from the kidney. However, there are also recent clinical observations indicating relatively well preserved oxygenation in the nonfunctional transplanted kidney. To test whether severe acute kidney injury can occur in the absence of widespread renal tissue hypoxia, we measured cortical and inner medullary tissue Po2 as well as total renal O2 delivery (Do2) and O2 consumption (Vo2) during the first 2 h of reperfusion after 60 min of occlusion of the renal artery in anesthetized rats. To perform this experiment, we used a new method for measuring kidney Do2 and Vo2 that relies on implantation of fluorescence optodes in the femoral artery and renal vein. We were unable to detect reductions in renal cortical or inner medullary tissue Po2 during reperfusion after ischemia localized to the kidney. This is likely explained by the observation that Vo2 (-57%) was reduced by at least as much as Do2 (-45%), due to a large reduction in glomerular filtration (-94%). However, localized tissue hypoxia, as evidence by pimonidazole adduct immunohistochemistry, was detected in kidneys subjected to ischemia and reperfusion, particularly in, but not exclusive to, the outer medulla. Thus, cellular hypoxia, particularly in the outer medulla, may still be present during reperfusion even when reductions in tissue Po2 are not detected in the cortex or inner medulla.

Abstract
Oxidant stress and compromised microcirculation underlie renal pathophysiology in septic acute kidney injury (AKI). Holthoff et al. report that resveratrol ameliorates these coupled abnormalities. They did not establish the primacy of either defect in septic AKI. However, tubule mitochondrial defects were recently reported to be involved in septic AKI pathogenesis, and resveratrol targets PGC-1α and respiratory enzymes. Together, these findings open new avenues for research into long-unresolved issues in the pathophysiology of septic AKI.

Abstract
The greatest advances in critical care over the past two decades have been achieved through doing less to the patient. We have learnt through salutary experience that our burgeoning Master-of-the-Universe capabilities and the oh-so-obvious stratagems instilled in us from youth were often ineffective or even deleterious. This re-education process, however, is far from complete. We are now rightly agonizing over the need for better characterization of pathophysiology, earlier identification of disease processes and a more directed approach to therapeutic intervention. We need to delineate the point at which intrinsic and protective adaptation ends and true harmful pathology begins, and how our iatrogenic meddling either helps or hinders. We need to improve trial design in the heterogeneous populations we treat, and to move away from syndromic fixations that, while offering convenience, have generally proved counterproductive. Importantly, we need to discover a far more holistic approach to patient care, evolving from the prevailing overmedicalized, number-crunching perspective towards a true multidisciplinary effort that embraces psychological as well as physiological well-being, with appropriate pharmacological minimization or supplementation. Complacency, with an unfair apportion of blame on the patient for not getting better, is the biggest threat to continued improvement.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury remains poorly understood. As changes in renal perfusion and oxygenation have been shown, we aimed to study the short-term effects of endotoxemia on microvascular and interstitial oxygenation in the cortex and medulla, in conjunction with global and renal hemodynamics. In a 4-h rat model of endotoxemia, we simultaneously assessed renal artery blood flow and microvascular and interstitial oxygen tensions in the renal cortex and medulla using ultrasonic flowmetry, dual wavelength phosphorimetry, and tissue oxygen tension monitoring, respectively. Whereas medullary microvascular and interstitial oxygen tensions decreased promptly in line with macrovascular blood flow, changes in cortical oxygenation were only seen later on. During the entire experimental protocol, the gradient between microvascular PO₂ and tissue oxygen tension remained unchanged in both cortex and outer medulla. At study end, urine output was significantly decreased despite a maintained oxygen consumption rate. In this 4-h rat model of endotoxemia, total renal oxygen consumption and the gradient between microvascular PO₂ and tissue oxygen tension remained unaltered, despite falls in renal perfusion and oxygen delivery and urine output. Taken in conjunction with the decrease in urine output, our results could represent either a functional renal impairment or an adaptive response.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The holy grail of circulatory monitoring is an accurate, continuous and relatively noninvasive means of assessing the adequacy of organ perfusion. This could be then advantageously used to direct therapeutic interventions to prevent both under-treatment and over-treatment and thus improve outcomes. However, in view of the heterogeneous response (adaptive or maladaptive) of different organs to various shock states, any monitor of perfusion adequacy cannot reflect every organ system, but should at least detect early deterioration in a 'canary' organ. Tissue oxygen tension reflects the balance between local oxygen supply and demand, and could thus be a potentially useful monitoring modality. This article examines the different technologies available and reviews the current literature regarding its utility as a monitor. RECENT FINDINGS Tissue oxygen tension, measured at a variety of sites in both human and laboratory studies, does appear to be a sensitive indicator of organ perfusion in different shock states. However, responses can vary not only between organs and between different shock states, but also over time. These changes reflect the particular oxygen supply-demand balance present in that tissue bed at that specific time point in the disease process. The response to a dynamic oxygen challenge test provides further information that allows severity to be more readily differentiated. SUMMARY Monitoring of tissue oxygen tension may offer a potentially useful tool for clinical management though significant validation needs to be first performed to confirm its promise.

Abstract
Tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) stabilizes nephron function from minute to minute and adapts to different steady-state inputs to maintain this capability. Such adaptation inherently renders TGF less efficient at buffering long-term disturbances, but the magnitude of loss is unknown. We undertook the present study to measure the compromise between TGF and TGF adaptation in transition from acute to chronic decline in proximal reabsorption (Jprox). As a tool, we blocked proximal tubule sodium-glucose cotransport with the SGLT2 blocker dapagliflozin in hyperglycemic rats with early streptozotocin diabetes, a condition in which a large fraction of proximal fluid reabsorption owes to SGLT2. Dapagliflozin acutely reduced proximal reabsorption leading to a 70% increase in early distal chloride, a saturated TGF response, and a major reduction in single nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR). Acute and chronic effects on Jprox were indistinguishable. Adaptations to 10-12 days of dapagiflozin included increased reabsorption by Henle's loop, which caused a partial relaxation in the increased tone exerted by TGF that could be explained without desensitization of TGF. In summary, TGF contributes to long-term fluid and salt balance by mediating a persistent decline in SNGFR as the kidney adapts to a sustained decrease in Jprox.

Abstract
Urine output often is used as a marker of acute kidney injury but also to guide fluid resuscitation in critically ill patients. Although decrease of urine output may be associated to a decrease of glomerular filtration rate due to decrease of renal blood flow or renal perfusion pressure, neurohormonal factors and functional changes may influence diuresis and natriuresis in critically ill patients. The purpose of this review is to discuss the mechanisms of diuresis regulation, which may help to interpret the urine output in critically ill patients and the appropriate treatment to be initiated in case of changes in urine output.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sepsis affects both macro- and micro-circulatory transport of oxygen to tissues, causing regional hypoxia. However, this relationship is poorly characterized with respect to inter-organ variability, disease severity and the evolution to organ dysfunction. We hypothesized that an early circulatory insult precedes the development of organ dysfunction, and is more severe in predicted non-survivors. Consequently, we assessed temporal changes in myocardial function and regional tissue oxygenation in peripheral and deep organs in a rat model of faecal peritonitis. We also examined the utility of a dynamic oxygen challenge test to assess the microcirculation. METHODS Awake, tethered, fluid-resuscitated male Wistar rats were randomized to receive intraperitoneal injection of faecal slurry, or to act as controls. At either 6 or 24 h post insult, rats were anaesthetized and underwent echocardiography, arterial cannulation and placement of tissue oxygen probes in peripheral (muscle, bladder) and deep (liver and renal cortex) organ beds. Measurements were repeated during fluid loading and an oxygen challenge test (administration of high oxygen concentrations). RESULTS Early sepsis (6 h) was characterized by a fall in global oxygen delivery with concurrent decreases in muscle, renal cortical and, especially, liver tissue PO2. By contrast, during established sepsis (24 h), myocardial and circulatory function had largely recovered despite increasing clinical unwellness, hyperlactataemia and biochemical evidence of organ failure. O2 challenge revealed an early depression of response that, by 24 h, had improved in all organ beds bar the kidney. CONCLUSIONS This long-term septic model exhibited an early decline in tissue oxygenation, the degree of which related to predicted mortality. Clinical and biochemical deterioration, however, progressed despite cardiovascular recovery. Early circulatory dysfunction may thus be an important trigger for downstream processes that result in multi-organ failure. Furthermore, the utility of tissue PO2 monitoring to highlight the local oxygen supply-demand balance, and dynamic O2 challenge testing to assess microcirculatory function merit further investigation.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases morbidity and mortality, particularly for the critically ill. Recent definitions standardizing AKI to reflect graded changes in serum creatinine and urine output (per the Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-stage renal failure [RIFLE] and Acute Kidney Injury Network [AKIN] criteria) with severity of renal injury and developments in AKI pathobiology are being utilized to identify biomarkers of early kidney injury. These developments may be useful in the early intervention of preventing AKI. Although there has been progress in the management of AKI, therapeutic challenges include appropriate prophylaxis prior to contrast administration, use of diuretics, vasopressors, and the type and dose of renal replacement therapy. Future use of bioartificial dialyzers, plasma therapies, and the possibility of stem cell regeneration of injured kidney tissue are being actively investigated to provide alternative treatment options for AKI. This review aims to provide an overview of current practices, available therapies, and continued research in AKI therapy.

Abstract
The critical importance of donor organ quality, i.e., number of surviving nephrons, ability to withstand injury, and capacity for repair in determining short- and long-term outcomes is becoming increasingly clear. This review provides an overview of studies to assess donor kidney quality and subsequent transplant outcomes based on clinical pathology and transcriptome-based variables available at time of transplantation. Prediction scores using clinical variables function when applied to large data sets but perform poorly for the individual patient. Histopathology findings in pre-implantation or post-reperfusion biopsies help to assess structural integrity of the donor kidney, provide information on pre-existing donor disease, and can serve as a baseline for tracking changes over time. However, more validated approaches of analysis and prospective studies are needed to reduce the number of discarded organs, improve allocation, and allow prediction of outcomes. Molecular profiling detects changes not seen by morphology or captured by clinical markers. In particular, molecular profiles provide a quantitative measurement of inflammatory burden or immune activation and reflect coordinated changes in pathways associated with injury and repair. However, description of transcriptome patterns is not an end in itself. The identification of predictive gene sets and the application to an individualized patient management needs the integration of clinical and pathology-based variables, as well as more objective reference markers of transplant function, post-transplant events, and long-term outcomes.
