Paediatric renal transplantation: Paediatric surgeons' perspective

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment for paediatric end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), offering advantages in survival, growth and neurocognitive development that surpass other renal replacement therapies (RRT). The paediatric setting, however, introduces distinct complexities that distinguish it from adult practice.

Renovascular hypertension

Kidney International, 1985
Renovascular hypertension is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Interest in identifying patients with renal artery stenosis has been stimulated recently by advances in three areas. First, is the realization that not only can renal artery stenosis cause renovascular hypertension, but it can also lead to progressive renal failure (ischemic ...

Renal artery fibromuscular dysplasia: diagnostic challenges in a child presenting with hyponatremic hypertensive syndrome (HHS)

Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine
A 2-year-9-month-old boy presented with renovascular hypertension caused by middle-segment stenosis of the right renal artery, and a severe hypertensive crisis, accompanied by hyponatremia, hypokalemia, and transient proteinuria. Fibromuscular dysplasia (

Should an Accessory Renal Artery be Considered as a Cause of Hypertension in Adolescents: a Case Report

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2023
The role of an accessory renal artery in the pathogenesis of hypertension is still controversial. In this report, we describe a previously healthy 16-year-old girl with an accessory right renal artery who presented with hypertensive urgency (no ...

The insulin‐like growth factor system and the progression of renal complications of type 2 diabetes

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Chronic kidney disease is associated with dysregulation of the insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) system. Alterations in IGF bioavailability, driven by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), may influence the decline in renal function. However, the longitudinal relationship between baseline IGF‐I, IGF‐II, IGFBPs and progression of kidney ...

A Newly Isolated Carboxymethyl-Glucan (CM-G) Restores Depressed Baroreflex Sensitivity in Renovascular Hypertensive Rats

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
This study was designed to investigate the effects of a newly synthesized carboxymethyl-glucan (CM-G) on blood pressure (BP), baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and sympathetic vascular modulation in renovascular hypertensive rats.

Paraventricular Nucleus Infusion of Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins Improves Renovascular Hypertension

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Oligomeric proantho cyanidins (OPC) is the main polyphenol presents in grape seed and is known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study,

Sildenafil ameliorates oxidative stress and DNA damage in the stenotic kidneys in mice with renovascular hypertension [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Oxidative stress and DNA damage have been implicated in the pathogenesis of renovascular hypertension induced by renal artery stenosis in the two-kidney, one-clip (2K1C) Goldblatt model.
