Is the Solitary Kidney a Privileged Kidney?
British Journal of Urology, 1983Summary— In rabbits the renal function of solitary kidneys subjected to ischaemic damage was compared with that of kidneys damaged identically in the presence of a normal contralateral organ. In spite of compensatory hypertrophy of the solitary kidney, no improvement in its ...

Aging is an inevitable consequence of life. Despite increased knowledge of the molecular and biological changes seen with aging, the underlying processes remain incompletely understood. A considerable literature on the histological and physiological changes in the kidney has been compiled over the past four decades.

The kidney could be the cause of essential hypertension which can also cause renal disease. High blood pressure is also very common in chronic kidney disease, and is moreover a well-known risk factor for a faster progression of kidney failure. Hypertension and kidneys are thus closely linked.

A case of renal echinococcosis, most uncommon in Hungary, is reported. The problems of diagnosis and therapy are discussed. It is emphasized that difficulties of diagnosis, particularly differential diagnosis, arise mainly in countries where the incidence of echinococcosis is low.

Schistosomiasis and the kidney
Seminars in Nephrology, 2003Schistosomiasis is a parasitic infection that affects 200 million people and is directly responsible for an annual death of 20,000 patients. Three species are responsible for most of the morbidity in humans: Schistosoma hematobium in Africa, S. mansoni in Africa and South America, and S. Japonicum in the Far East. Renal involvement occurs mostly with S.

The use of herbal therapy has increased dramatically in past years and may lead to renal injury or various toxic insults, especially in renal patients. In most countries, herbal products are not regulated as medicines. Herbal poisoning may be secondary to the presence of undisclosed drugs or heavy metals, interaction with the pharmacokinetic profile of

Drugs and the kidney have a reciprocal relationship: on the one hand the kidney is particularly vulnerable to adverse drug reactions (1) and on the other hand, since many drugs or their metabolites are renally eliminated, decreasing kidney function can severely affect bioavailability, potentially inducing toxicity. Before discussing both aspects of the

The first so-called "artificial kidney" used in this country was an ingenious device containing a collodion membrane as the filter and hirudin, the active anticoagulant principle of the leech, to prevent blood clotting. It was used in experiments to remove salicylate from the blood of dogs by extracorporeal circulation.1Almost 50 years later the same ...
