Sodium and fluid intake are important modifiable risk factors for these outcomes, and the role of the nutritionist as educator is essential in this process. However, patient adherence is often low, representing a significant challenge. Recent recommendations suggest personalizing the education process, but there is limited data on how to effectively carry out this adaptation. The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a personalized nutritional intervention based on learning style using the VARK tool with the goal of reducing IDWG in HD patients.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>This was a randomized crossover clinical trial.

The diagnosis of TMA is made clinically by the triad: microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and organ damage (mainly acute kidney injury). The heterogeneity of clinical manifestation and the lack of a gold standard diagnostic test makes the precise diagnosis of aHUS a challenging process that may impact patient management. Until one decade ago, there was no specific treatment for aHUS and patients were submitted to plasma therapy (plasma exchange and/or plasma infusion) and/or liver transplantation, procedures that are not free of serious complications and that do not address the underlying pathophysiology of the disease. Since 2011, an anti-C5 complement monoclonal antibody has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for aHUS patients beginning a new era in treatment. Clinical trials on new complement inhibitors may also add to the treatment portfolio in the future. The Brazilian population is a mixed race with a unique genetic and clinical profile. This consensus aims to offer recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with aHUS in this population based on expert experience, data from the aHUS Brazilian Registry and literature review.
