High respiratory efforts in COVID-19 patients could result in self-inflicted lung injury
The impact of high breathing efforts on the lungs of patients suffering with acute respiratory failure due to COVID-19 has been investigated by researchers at the University of Warwick, who assessed the likelihood of resulting lung injury. Although mechanical ventilation is a life-saving intervention

High creatinine and cholesterol
Hi guys me again. My last thyroid test results seem to be pretty good but I'd appreciate any feedback about my other test results. My cholesterol was high and also creatinine very high. I did read that this can be linked to Hypo and after medication should return to normal. I've been on 150mcg for about

Drugs for mild dementia
I want to help her sleep at night better and get less anxiety The issue I have is that she has heart
failure
and
kidney
issues ( age related ) so I would need to know whether they cannot be used. The GP doesnt seem to understand how horrible dementia is even if its relatively mild.

Kidney issues post liver transplant
Hi I'm 1 year post liver transplant, but my kidneys seem to be taking a hit. My GFR is reducing at each blood test. It is now 39 and drops by about 5 every time. They've not said if it's now CKD but I'm worried as the internet says 39 is stage 3B. They have reduced my tacrolimus to 1mg twice daily,

Third COVID-19 vaccine dose may prompt response in transplant recipients.
A third dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine induces a serologic response in 49 percent of kidney transplant recipients who did not respond after receiving two doses, according to a research letter published online July 23 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
