PARATHYROIDECTOMY IN CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1986Between 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 preāoperative dialysis for these 19 patients was 48 months, compared with a mean duration of 30 ...

A.S.P.E.N. clinical guidelines: nutrition support in adult acute and chronic renal failure.
JPEN - Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2010Renal failure results when the kidneys cannot adequately excrete nitrogenous and metabolic wastes, either acutely, as a part of a clinical illness, or chronically over years of declining renal function.

False renal failure and chronic renal failure [PDF]
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.

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 ...

Hyperplasia of the parathyroid glands and high levels of circulating parathyroid hormone are common in patients with chronic renal failure,1and even in those with mild impairment of renal function.2However, the syndrome of overt hyperparathyroidism is ...

Chronic renal failure implies a progressive reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) due to irreversible nephron loss. The term renal insufficiency is often used to describe a mild reduction in GFR, usually before the point that presents uremic symptoms. On the other hand, end stage renal disease is used to describe a severe reduction in GFR, that

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).

Endothelin in Chronic Renal Failure
Nephron, 1994Plasma concentrations of IR endothelin are elevated in patients with chronic renal failure. But its exact causes have not been clarified. Hypertension may be one of the most important factors associated with elevated plasma IR endothelin concentrations, although it still remains to be determined whether hypertension is a result or a cause of the ...

Lipid metabolism in acute and chronic renal failure.
Journal of Laboratory and Clinical Medicine, 1968In acute renal failure, fasting plasma triglyceride and plasma free fatty acids (F.F.A.) may be high, and plasma cholesterol may be low. The abnormality in the latter two measurements appears related to the severity of the condition. Very high plasma F.F.

Hyperleptinemia in Chronic Renal Failure
Hormone and Metabolic Research, 1996To investigate the mechanism(s) of degradation of leptin, the protein product of ob (obese) gene, we measured serum leptin levels in 70 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). The median of serum leptin concentrations of 36 male and 34 female patients with CRF were 7.3 ng/ml ranging from 0.5 to 39.0 ng/ml and 34.9 ng/ml from 1.1 to 76.1 ng/ml ...
