LetterImmunogenicity of a first dose of mRNA- or vector-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in dialysis patients: a multicenter prospective observational pilot study.
Dialysis patients are at risk for lower SARS-CoV-2-vaccine immunogenicity than the normal population. We assessed immunogenicity to a first mRNA- or vector-based SARS-CoV-2-vaccination dose in dialysis patients. ⋯ Two weeks after their first mRNA- or vector-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, hemodialysis patients demonstrated lower antibody-related response than peritoneal dialysis patients and healthy staff or unvaccinated hemodialysis patients following prior COVID-19 infection.

Impact of chloride-rich crystalloids on sepsis-associated community-acquired acute kidney injury recovery in critically ill patients.
The use of chloride-rich crystalloids for resuscitation is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI). We aimed to explore the impact of resuscitation with chloride-rich crystalloids compared to balanced crystalloids on kidney function recovery in patients presenting with sepsis-associated community-acquired AKI (SACA-AKI). ⋯ The use of balanced crystalloids during the initial resuscitation is associated with higher odds of kidney function recovery in AKI patients with sepsis-associated community-acquired AKI.
