Hypertension in chronic renal failure [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Hypertension, 2001
Introduction. 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.

Dopamine in Chronic Renal Failure

American Journal of Hypertension, 1990
In 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, 1956
Proper 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

Chronic renal failure

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
Nephrologists may be very proud to have developed excellent techniques for replacing renal function and to have improved renal graft survival to such an extent that the kidney is the only organ for which transplantation is now a routine. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said concerning the conservative management of chronic renal failure (CRF ...

Chronic renal failure in India

Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1993
In a series of 2028 patients with chronic renal failure, the diseases leading to renal failure, the presence or absence of reversible factors and their nature, and the rate of decline of renal function of the most common conditions have been described and analysed.

Endothelin in chronic renal failure

Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1992
The aims of the present study were to determine plasma endothelin (ET) in chronically uraemic patients, the renal clearance of endogenous ET in normal dog and man, and the effect of acute volaemic expansion on ET. The mean plasma ET concentration in haemodialysis patients was 57.5 +/- 5 pg/ml before haemodialysis and remained unchanged at 52.5 +/- 5 pg/

PARATHYROIDECTOMY IN CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1986
Between 1978 and 1984, 19 patients at Royal Perth Hospital (RPH) underwent parathyroidectomy for secondary (renal) hyperparathyroidism. This represented 6.0% of the overall dialysis population treated at RPH during this period of time. The mean duration of pre‐operative dialysis for these 19 patients was 48 months, compared with a mean duration of 30 ...

Parathyroidectomy in chronic renal failure

The American Journal of Surgery, 1994
A 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 ...

False renal failure and chronic renal failure [PDF]

open access: possible, 1995
False renal failure is an increase in Scr without a fall in GFR due to one of the etiologies listed in Table 7.1. (See the section, Misleading Elevation in Scr, in Chapter 5.) The physician needs to consider this diagnosis when the Scr increases without a change in BUN or when he recognizes one of the conditions on Table 7.1.
