We report a case of reversible acute renal failure after cefotaxime treatment in a patient affected by non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Renal biopsy showed necrotizing vasculitis associated with eosinophil-rich interstitial inflammatory infiltrates and patchy infiltrates of CD20+ lymphoid cells. High serum p-ANCA titers were also detected. Drug withdrawal was closely related with recovery of renal function and disappearance of ANCA. Acute renal failure therefore represented a consequence of ANCA-mediated renal vasculitis and acute interstitial nephritis related to cefotaxime treatment.
This article thematizes treatments in children affected by Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. For this, treatment in patients from low-risk and high-risk groups will be addressed to the importance of diagnosis, bringing the expected results. Aiming at the process that the child patient receives, from the diagnostic to the treatments developed to reach the cure. This study was conducted from a literature review perspective, which consists of developing a theoretical basis, in the treatment of a research problem that can be answered in the analysis of a published literature. Therefore, this article is based on obtaining the study about articles that described several cases of acute lymphocytic leukemia. During this study it was possible to understand the results through treatment of patients with different degrees of the disease, each with its peculiarities, symptoms and treatment 2
Drug disposal is of concern to public health, as toxic waste can be considered depending on the composition and degree of toxicity. Therefore, they cannot have the same destination as waste considered common. Humans are responsible for disposal, be it expired drugs, leftovers, disuse or excess. Certainly, the impact on the environment is worrying and unprecedented, in addition advertising aimed at the sale of medicine stimulates the consumer and with this waste is generated. In the results of the present study, it can be seen that the number of people who dispose incorrectly prevails compared to the number of housings studied, thus the objective of the present study is to emphasize knowledge in general relation to the disposal of medications.

This paper aims to discuss what has been written about the treatment of patients with CKD in recent years. For this, it is intended: to make a simple bibliographic survey of articles published in the years 2018-2021, to perform a brief analysis about the results and to comment on the most used treatments. After the research, it was possible to find a total of 691 articles produced in Brazil. However, some of the findings corroborated the understanding that CKD treatment occurs from two main intervention models: dialysis and kidney transplantation. It was observed with the study that the treatment modalities (RRT and TR) can cause profound impacts on the quality of life of the subject, which makes attention and attention necessary and sensitivity of health teams to better align their practices and approximate patient demands.
It is known that advanced chronic kidney disease in the patient leads to the need for transplantation, and, consequently, to the use of immunosuppressants, which are drugs that prevent rejection of the transplanted organ. The present work is a literature review and aims to analyze the side effects of immunosuppressants in renal transplant patients. From studies 2
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
