Acute Kidney Injury and Hemolytic Anemia Secondary to Mycoplasma pneumoniae Infection.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Pruritus is one of the most common and disturbing symptoms in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The pathogenesis of pruritus in HD patients is multifactorial; however, a little progress in understanding this pathogenesis has been achieved. OBJECTIVES:To evaluate the frequency and risk factors of pruritus among HD...
