Hypokalemia and hyperkalemia are the most commonly encountered electrolyte abnormalities in hospitalized patients. Because untreated hypokalemia or hyperkalemia is associated with high morbidity and mortality, it is important to recognize and treat them immediately. Hypokalemia and hyperkalemia can result from disruptions in transcellular homeostasis or in the renal regulation of K＋ excretion. Although the recognition is simple, appropriate management requires...
Hypernatremia and hyponatremia
Dong Un Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2006;49(5):463-469.   Published online May 15, 2006
Sodium is the major cation of the extracellular fluid and the primary determinant of extracellular osmolality. Therefore, hypernatremia causes water movement out of cells, while hyponatremia causes water movement into cells, resulting in cellular shrinkage and cellular swelling, respectively. Serious central nervous system symptoms may complicate both conditions. Since hypernatremia and hyponatremia are accompanied by abnormalities in water balance, it...

Childhood and adolescent obesity is strongly associated with an atherogenic lipid profile and silent cardiovascular injury that begins early and evolves over time. In this structured review, we synthesized PubMed-indexed evidence from the past 25 years on lipid profile changes in children and adolescents with varying degrees of obesity— overweight, obesity, and severe obesity—and their cardiovascular consequences from childhood through young adulthood, as well as interventions that improve lipid...
