RESUMO
Hyperkalemia is common in everyday clinical practice, and is a major risk factor for mortality. It mainly affects patients with chronic renal failure (CKD), diabetes or receiving treatment with inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (iRAAS). Therapeutic management aims not only to avoid the complications of hyperkalemia, but also to avoid discontinuation of cardio- and nephroprotective treatments such as iRAAS. The use of polystyrene sulfonate, widely prescribed, is often limited by patient acceptability. Recent data have cast doubt on its safety, particularly in terms of digestive tolerance. Two new potassium exchange molecules have appeared on the market: patiromer and zirconium sulfonate. Their value in clinical practice, and their acceptability in the event of prolonged prescription, remain to be demonstrated. The combination of a thiazide diuretic or an inhibitor of the sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (iSGLT2) with iRAAS therapy in CKD, may also improve control of kalemia. At present, there are no recommendations for the positioning of the various hypokalemic treatments. The choice of these treatments must be adapted to the patient's pathologies and consider the other expected effects of these molecules.

SARS-CoV-2 infection, named COVID-19, can lead to a dysregulated immune response and abnormal coagulation responsible for a viral sepsis. In this review, we specify physiopathological mechanisms of each phase of COVID-19 - viral, immune and pro-thrombotic - notably because they involve different treatment. Finally, we specify the physiopathological mechanisms of organ injury.

Whether it appears spontaneously or is induced by therapy, the tumor lysis syndrome is responsible for a massive release of ions and puric bases degradation of products in the circulation exceeding the renal excretion capacity. Some, such as uric acid, xanthine, and calcium phosphate, can precipitate in the renal tubules or parenchyma. It must be known to any practitioner supporting patients with hematologic malignancies, mainly high-grade but also some solid tumors. The 2015 publication of the British recommendations pertaining to patients suffering from hematological diseases should be broadcast. The main goal of treatment is to prevent the occurrence of renal dysfunction associated with heavy morbidity and mortality, either for his own conduct or consequences on obtaining a good tumor response. Some items proposed for the care, whether curative or preventive, should be discussed or detailed, which is the subject of this paper.
