All hemodialysis patients should have their nutritional status evaluated regularly using multiple methods. The bioelectrical impedance analysis has been widely used in the nutritional assessment. The objective of this study was to evaluate, for a period of 7 years, to the prognostic value of the parameters of bioelectrical impedance analysis on mortality in hemodialysis patients. Methods: A retrospective, observational study, including 301 patients in hemodialysis at baseline. During the study period 96 patients died, 46 patients were transplanted, 21 were not followed by Nutritionist, 49 were transferred to another clinic and 4 underwent treatment changes. The parameters assessed at baseline were: demographic and clinic data (age, gender, etiology of chronic kidney disease and co-morbidity), dialysis data (type and duration of hemodialysis, dialysis vintage, vasc...

Objectives The present study evaluated the effect of intraperitoneal injections of the A2AAR antagonist ANR 94, and the A2AAR agonists CGS 21680 and VT 7 on voluntary drinking and operant self-administration of 10% ethanol in Marchigian Sardinian alcohol-preferring (msP) rats. Results Voluntary ethanol drinking was increased by ANR 94 in acute and subchronic experiments, while it was reduced by A2AAR agonists. The effect of CGS 21680 was abolished by a low dose of ANR 94, confirming its mediation by A2AARs. Ethanol self-administration was reduced by CGS 21680 and VT 7, while ANR 94 slightly but significantly increased it. Blood alcohol levels were not modified by A2AAR agonists, indicating that their effect is not related to ethanol pharmacokinetics. The effect of VT 7 on ethanol drinking was behaviourally selective; ethanol and food intake were reduced, but water intake was increased, and total fluid intake was not different from that of controls. Moreover, VT 7 did not affect locomotor activity. CGS 21680 (0.1 mg/kg) did not modify total fluid intake, but 0.2 and 0.3 mg/kg reduced total fluid intake and locomotor activity. Conclusion These results provide evidence that A2AAR agonists reduce ethanol consumption in msP rats, which represent an animal model of alcohol abuse related to stress, anxiety and depression. A2AARs may represent a potential target for treatment of alcohol abuse.
