Hypomagnesemia, a side effect of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), can be asymptomatic. The presence of hypocalcemia or hypokalemia is indicative of hypomagnesemia; however, the concomitant use of PPIs and thiazide may mask hypocalcemia. A 79-year-old woman with a history of chronic heart failure and chronic kidney disease developed symptomatic hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia. Five weeks earlier, she had developed thiazide-induced hyponatremia, so thiazide had been discontinued. Reviewing the patient's charts revealed that three discontinued thiazide administrations in the clinical course had unmasked hypocalcemia. Our case demonstrates that thiazide-induced hypercalcemia can be so prominent as to mask PPI-induced hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia.

Background:Although diuretic resistance leading to residual congestion is a known predictor of a poorer heart failure (HF) prognosis, better therapeutic strategies for effective and safe decongestion have not been established.Methods and Results:In this study, 81 HF patients with fluid retention (despite taking ≥40 mg/day furosemide (FUR)), with an estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 mL/min/1.73 m2, were randomized into 2 groups and administered either ≤15 mg/day additive tolvaptan (TLV) or ≤40 mg/day increased FUR for 7 days. Changes in urine volume between baseline and mean urine volume during treatment were significantly higher in the TLV than FUR group (P=0.0003). Although there was no significant decrease in body weight or improved signs and symptoms of congestion between the 2 groups, the increase in serum creatinine on Day 7 from baseline was significantly smaller in the TLV than FUR group (P=0.038). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that additive TLV (odds ratio 0.157, 95% confidence interval 0.043–0.605, P=0.001) was an independent clinical factor for improved renal function during treatment compared with increased FUR.Conclusions:In HF patients with residual congestion and renal dysfunction refractory to standard therapy, additive TLV increased urine volume without further renal impairment compared with patients who received an increased dose of FUR.

Serum tonicity is defined by the serum concentrations of sodium (sNa) and glucose, which can promote free water movement across intra/extracellular compartments. Rapid changes in serum tonicity can cause brain damage. We herein report an educational case of a patient with hyponatremia (sNa: 112 mEq/L) concomitant with acute alcoholic pancreatitis. The cause of hyponatremia was considered complex. Pseudo- and trans-locational natremia was secondary to hyperglycemia (721 mg/dL) and hypertriglyceridemia (1768 mg/dL), respectively, and true hypotonic hyponatremia. Regarding sNa correction, rapid correction was suspected. However, this was safely managed by monitoring tonicity (not sNa or osmolarity), thereby avoiding brain damage.

Objective Whether or not combined lifestyle factors are associated with similar decreases in risks of incident hypertension and diabetes among individuals with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear. Methods This population-based prospective cohort study included participants 40-74 years old who were free from heart disease, stroke, renal failure, hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia at baseline (n =60,234). Healthy lifestyle scores (HLSs) were calculated by adding the total number of 5 healthy lifestyle factors (non-smoking, body mass index <25 kg/m2, regular exercise, healthy eating habits, and moderate or less alcohol consumption). Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine associations between the HLS and incident hypertension or type 2 diabetes and whether or not CKD modified these associations. Results During a median of 4 years, there were 2,773 incident hypertension cases (30.1 cases per 1,000 person-years) and 263 incident diabetes cases (2.4 cases per 1,000 person-years). The risk of developing hypertension and diabetes decreased linearly as participants adhered to more HLS components. Compared with adhering to 0, 1, or 2 components, adherence to all 5 HLS components was associated with a nearly one-half reduction in the risk of hypertension (hazard ratio [HR] =0.52; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.45-0.60) and diabetes (HR =0.51; 95% CI, 0.32-0.81) in fully adjusted models. CKD did not have a modifying effect on associations between the HLS and incident hypertension (Pinteraction =0.6) or diabetes (Pinteraction =0.3). Conclusion Adherence to HLS components was associated with reduced risks of incident hypertension and diabetes, regardless of CKD status.

Background: Aortic artery disease (AAD), such as aortic dissection or aortic aneurysm rupture, is fatal, with an extremely high mortality. Because of its low incidence, the risk for the development of AAD has not yet been elucidated. Hypertension (HT) is an established risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but there has been no prospective study on the effect of HT on AAD-related mortality. Methods and Results: We used a nationwide database of 276,197 subjects (aged 40–75 years) who participated in the annual “Specific Health Check and Guidance in Japan” from 2008 to 2010. There were 80 AAD-related deaths during the follow-up period of 1,049,549 person-years. On multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression, HT was an independent risk factor for AAD-related death in apparently healthy subjects. On receiver operating characteristics curve analysis for AAD-related death, abnormal systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) were 130 mmHg and 82 mmHg, respectively. The prediction capacity was significantly improved by the addition of SBP to confounding risk factors. Notably, further improvement of the C index was observed by addition of DBP to the model with SBP. Conclusions: This is the first report to prospectively show that HT is a risk factor for AAD-related death. Both SBP and DBP are of critical importance in the primary prevention of AAD-related death in apparently healthy subjects.
