    1. Screen for portopulmonary hypertension, especially in liver transplant candidates
      Karen L. Swanson, DO and Michael J. Krowka, MD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2008, 75 (2) 121-136;

      Portopulmonary hypertension should be looked for in patients with liver disease, especially if liver transplantation is being considered, as it may make transplantation riskier to perform.

    1. Surprisingly nonbenign imaging
      Brian F. Mandell, MD, PhD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2008, 75 (2) 88;

      Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is making us revise our view that “MRI with contrast” is a benign test.

  5. Patel, Rajiv

    1. Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis and its association with gadolinium exposure during MRI
      Naim Issa, MD, Emilio D. Poggio, MD, Richard A. Fatica, MD, Rajiv Patel, MD, Paul M. Ruggieri, MD and Robert J. Heyka, MD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2008, 75 (2) 95-111;

      This debilitating disorder can lead to serious complications and death. In patients with renal dysfunction, we should use gadolinium-based imaging studies with caution.

    1. Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis and its association with gadolinium exposure during MRI
      Naim Issa, MD, Emilio D. Poggio, MD, Richard A. Fatica, MD, Rajiv Patel, MD, Paul M. Ruggieri, MD and Robert J. Heyka, MD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2008, 75 (2) 95-111;

      This debilitating disorder can lead to serious complications and death. In patients with renal dysfunction, we should use gadolinium-based imaging studies with caution.

  7. Rifkin, Dena

    1. Should all patients with chronic kidney disease take a statin?
      Dena Rifkin, MD and Mark Sarnak, MD, MS
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine February 2008, 75 (2) 118-120;

      Some patients should take a statin, particularly those not yet on dialysis who have low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels higher than 100 mg/dL. However, relatively few studies have addressed this question.
