Systematic Review: Sodium Bicarbonate Treatment Regimens for the Prevention of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy
Annals of Internal Medicine, 11/03/2009
|
Zoungas S et al. – This review of 9 published and 14 unpublished trials of sodium bicarbonate suggests that the effect of this agent has been overestimated. Unpublished trials found ... published trials, and formal testing confirmed publication bias. Sodium bicarbonate is probably less effective at preventing contrast–induced nephropathy than is currently thought. Routine use of sodium bicarbonate for prevention of contrast–induced nephropathy is therefore premature ... diagnostics,nephropathies,preventive medicine,fluids and electrolytes,internal medicine,nephrology

Sodium Bicarbonate for the Prevention of Contrast Induced-Acute Kidney Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 10/07/2009
|
Brar SS et al. – A significant clinical and statistical heterogeneity was observed that was largely explained by trial size and published status. Among the large randomized ... there was no evidence of benefit for hydration with sodium bicarbonate compared with sodium chloride for the prevention of CI–AKI. The benefit of sodium bicarbonate was limited to small trials of lower methodological quality.

Bicarbonate-based peritoneal dialysis solution has less effect on ingestive behavior than lactate-based peritoneal dialysis solution
Peritoneal Dialysis International, 11/16/2009
|
Zheng ZH et al. – The bicarbonate/lactate solution inhibited appetite less than the lactate solution; this was due partially to the use of bicarbonate. The

Brown JR et al. – Combination prophylaxis with NAC and NaHCO3 substantially reduced the occurrence of contrast–induced AKI overall but not dialysis–dependent renal failure. Combination prophylaxis should be incorporated for all ... ndash;risk patients (emergent cases or patients with chronic kidney disease) and should be strongly considered for all interventional radio–contrast procedures.

Compensatory role of inducible annexin A2 for impaired biliary epithelial anion-exchange activity of inflammatory cholangiopathy
Laboratory Investigation, 10/19/2009
|
Inducible ANXA2 expression in cholangiocytes may play a compensatory role for the impaired AE activity of cholangiocytes in PBC in terms of bicarbonate–rich ductular secretion and bile formation through modulation of the PKC activity.
