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 ...

Progression of Chronic Renal Failure
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1989Rates of progression of renal failure were calculated for a group of 277 patients who had five or more clinic visits. The goals of therapy in the absence of ongoing immunological processes were control of blood pressure to diastolic pressures less than 85 mm Hg and serum phosphate less than 1.60 mmol/L (5 mg/dL).

Calcitonin in Chronic Renal Failure
Nephron, 2008The pattern of circulating calcitonin (CT) has been studied in relation to other humoral factors (PTH, calcium, phosphate and magnesium) in patients with chronic renal failure on either conservative or dialysis treatment. The latter group was studied before and after dialysis.

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>.

Parathyroidectomy in Chronic Renal Failure
Nephron, 2008Parathyroidectomy was carried out in 26 patients over a 14-yΕar period. Excellent results were obtained in patients with severe hyperparathyroidism. Vascular calcification, hypercalcaemia and pruritus did not justify surgery unless associated with unequivocal hyperparathyroidism.

Parathyroidectomy in chronic renal failure
The American Journal of Surgery, 1979Abstract 1. 1. The primary predisposing factors to secondary hyperparathyroidism are the duration of renal disease and, secondarily, the duration of dialysis. 2. 2. Subjective symptoms alone are poor indicators of parathyroid disease and their resolution is not guaranteed by parathyroidectomy. 3. 3.

Chronic Renal Failure in Horses
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2007Chronic renal failure is a syndrome of progressive loss of renal function that results in loss of urinary concentrating ability, retention of nitrogenous and other metabolic end products, alterations in electrolyte and acid-base status, and dysfunction of several hormone systems. This article describes the prevalence, causes, clinical signs, diagnostic

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 ...

Atherosclerosis in chronic renal failure
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1993Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic renal failure. It is unclear, however, if atherosclerosis in fact occurs at a higher incidence compared with the nonuremic population matched for age, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus or if it occurs at an accelerated rate following the ...
