Measurement of effective renal plasma flow using model analysis of dynamic CT in the preoperative evaluation of the renal transplant donors [PDF]

Fujita Medical Journal, 2020
Objectives: Renal scintigraphy is widely used to evaluate residual function of a transplanted kidney from the donor. Dynamic computed tomography (CT) imaging can evaluate both kidney morphology and regional renal function.

Simultaneous Measurement of Glomerular Filtration Rate, Effective Renal Plasma Flow and Tubular Secretion in Different Poultry Species by Single Intravenous Bolus of Iohexol and Para-Aminohippuric Acid [PDF]

Animals, 2020
The aim of the current study was to investigate the simultaneous measurement of plasma p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) clearance as a potential marker to assess effective renal plasma flow (eRPF) and tubular secretion (TS), and the plasma clearance of iohexol

Assessing the kidney function parameters glomerular filtration rate and effective renal plasma flow with dynamic FDG-PET/MRI in healthy subjects [PDF]

EJNMMI Research, 2018
Background A method was developed to assess the kidney parameters glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) from 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose (FDG) concentration behavior in kidneys, measured with positron emission ...

Case Report: Smith-Magenis syndrome with bilateral high-grade vesicoureteral reflux, hypothyroidism, and seizure in infancy [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics
Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a rare neurodevelopmental and multisystem disorder caused mainly by 17p11.2 deletions involving RAI1. Because the characteristic behavioral and sleep phenotype may not yet be apparent, diagnosis in infancy can be ...

Impact of Renal Stone Clearance in Patients of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Prospective Observational Study from a Tertiary Care Centre [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
Introduction: Varying degrees of renal insufficiency is associated with renal stone disease. The incidence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in renal stone is around 0.8 to 17.5%.

Estimation of renal perfusion based on measurement of rubidium-82 clearance by PET/CT scanning in healthy subjects

EJNMMI Physics, 2021
Background Changes in renal blood flow (RBF) may play a pathophysiological role in hypertension and kidney disease. However, RBF determination in humans has proven difficult.

Comparing the Reliability of the Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimated with 99m-Technetium Diethylene-Triamine-Pentaacetate versus the Effective Renal Plasma Flow Obtained with 99m-Technetium Ethylene Dicysteine: A Prospective Observational Study

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2023
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important for assessing renal function and must be calculated reliably and reproducibly. This study aimed to compare the reliability and accuracy of GFR estimated with 99m-technetium diethylene-triamine ...

Design of Beta-2 Microglobulin Adsorbent Protein Nanoparticles

Biomolecules, 2023
Beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) is an immune system protein that is found on the surface of all nucleated human cells. B2M is naturally shed from cell surfaces into the plasma, followed by renal excretion.

Descending thoracic aorta–abdominal aortic bypass and bilateral renal arterial blood circulation reconstruction are effective in atypical coarctation of the aorta with heart failure: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background There are a lot of reports of the renal failure and heart failure due to coarctation of the aorta. However, there are no case reports in which revascularization dramatically improved left ventricular function in patients with progressive ...
