Voice in Chronic Renal Failure
Journal of Voice, 2010Chronic renal failure affects various body systems, one of which is the respiratory system. Because respiration is the prime source for speech, vocal dysfunctions are expected to be present in patients with chronic renal failure. The present study attempts to shed light on the changes in acoustic and aerodynamic characteristics of voice, if any, in ...

Intussusception in Chronic Renal Failure
Archives of Surgery, 1976Spontaneous intussusception in adults is rare. Recently, we managed two patients with chronic uremia in whom intussusception developed. Histologic examination of the resected segments showed intestinal intramural hemorrhage. We postulate that the coagulopathy associated with uremia may allow for intestinal intramural hemorrhage, thus forming a nidus ...

Management of chronic renal failure
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1992There is growing evidence that treatment of patients with renal function impairment will undergo a major shift within the next few years. Along with more or less successful attempts to alleviate the signs and symptoms of reduced renal function, new insights into renal pathophysiology as well as new therapeutic modalities have given rise to the notion ...

Dopamine in Chronic Renal Failure
American Journal of Hypertension, 1990In patients with renal disease a reduced renal vasodilatory but conserved natriuretic response to dopamine is observed. An inverse relationship exists between baseline renal function and the dopamine-induced changes in effective renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate over a wide range of dopamine doses.

Nutrition in Chronic Renal Failure
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1956Proper management of the patient with chronic renal failure entails a knowledge of how the normal kidney does its work, common kidney function tests and their differential value, chemical abnormalities in chronic renal failure, and chemical derangements in various types of renal disease. Functions of Normal Kidney The functional unit of the kidney is

Adaptation to chronic renal failure
Psychosomatics, 1978Abstract The author's clinical experience in a large dialysis unit over a five-year period is described, with emphasis on the psychiatric aspects of long-term adaptation. Because the inevitable stresses of renal failure tend to restrict the patient's communication with other people, emotional difficulties can remain hidden in patients who appear to ...

Parathyroidectomy in chronic renal failure
The American Journal of Surgery, 1994A subset of patients who are being maintained on dialysis for end-stage renal disease develop severely symptomatic secondary hyperparathyroidism that cannot be controlled medically. The relative merits of two alternative surgical approaches--subtotal parathyroidectomy versus total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation--have not been clearly ...

Haemolysis in Chronic Renal Failure
Nephron, 2008In a group of patients with a range of degree of advancement of renal failure, the red cell survival estimated as the half-life of radiochromium-labelled red blood cells (T<sub>½</sub>.51Cr) was correlated with several indices of renal failure. The T<sub>½</sub>.

Hypertension in chronic renal failure
Journal of Hypertension, 2001Introduction. When compared with essential arterial hypertension, the incidence of secondary arterial hypertension is low (8-10%), but it can be cured by surgery in the case of renovascular hypertension, renin producing tumors, coartaction of the aorta and some types of suprarenal gland diseases.

Stroke in chronic renal failure
Orvosi Hetilap, 2008Chronic kidney diseases and cardiovascular diseases have several common risk factors like hypertension and diabetes. In chronic renal disease stroke risk is several times higher than in the average population. The combination of classical risk factors and those characteristic of chronic kidney disease might explain this increased risk.
