Proceedings of the Association of Clinical Biochemists, 1959 The use of the artificial kidney is entirely safe, and when used as an adjunct to the dietary regime of patients with acute reversible renal failure it can be life-saving in some instances. The patients who fall into the moderate group usually require a dialysis 7–10 days after the onset of renal failure.

Artificial Intelligence Assessment of Renal Scarring (AIRS Study)
Kidney360, 2021 Key Points In this pilot study, two AI algorithms showed approximately 85% accuracy in predicting kidney fibrosis severity (using kidney biopsies as ground-truth). Machine learning algorithms are a promising noninvasive diagnostic tool to quantify kidney

The future of the artificial kidney
Indian Journal of Urology, 2021 End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is increasing worldwide. In India, diabetes mellitus and hypertension are the leading causes of chronic kidney disease and ESRD. Hemodialysis is the most prevalent renal replacement therapy (RRT) in India.

Adapting a Kidney Exchange Algorithm to Align with Human Values [PDF]
Artificial Intelligence 283 (2020) 103261, 2020 The efficient and fair allocation of limited resources is a classical problem in economics and computer science. In kidney exchanges, a central market maker allocates living kidney donors to patients in need of an organ. Patients and donors in kidney exchanges are prioritized using ad-hoc weights decided on by committee and then fed into an allocation ...

From organoids to transplantable artificial kidneys
Transplant International, 2019 It is difficult to restore kidney function following chronic kidney damage. Although dialysis is currently used to treat patients with chronic kidney disease, it does not cure the disease, while severely restricting the patient's daily and social ...
