Modeling the Steady-State Effects of Mean Arterial Pressure on the Kidneys
IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2021 Goal: We describe the relationship between mean arterial pressure (MAP) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) since therapies affecting MAP can have large effects on kidney function.

Thick ascending limb of Henle's loop
Kidney International, 1982 Thick ascending limbs of Henle's loop have at least three major roles: (1) They reabsorb sodium chloride which dilutes the urine. (2) The reabsorption of sodium chloride also produces concentration gradients that drive the countercurrent multiplier system in the medulla and medullary rays and thus concentrates the urine. (3) They reabsorb large amounts

Heterogeneity of the descending thin limb of Henle's loop
Kidney International, 1990 Although no unified theory has been established to account for the mechanisms of formation of concentrated urine, it has been generally accepted that the loops of Henle play a crucial role in the generation and maintenance of a steep osmotic gradient in the renal medulla [1].

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Nonthermal Food Processing Technologies: A Comprehensive Review
Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.The graphical abstract illustrates the shift from traditional thermal food preservation methods to advanced nonthermal technologies. Traditional methods, represented by heating, often compromise the nutritional and sensory quality of foods. In contrast, nonthermal approaches such as high‐pressure processing (HPP), pulsed electric field (PEF ...

Active Osmotic Exchanger for Efficient Nanofiltration Inspired by the Kidney
Physical Review X, 2016 In this paper, we investigate the physical mechanisms underlying one of the most efficient filtration devices: the kidney. Building on a minimal model of the Henle loop—the central part of the kidney filtration—we investigate theoretically the detailed ...

Sympathetic nerve-derived ATP regulates renal medullary vasa recta diameter via pericyte cells: a role for regulating medullary blood flow? [PDF]
, 2013 Pericyte cells are now known to be a novel locus of blood flow control, being able to regulate capillary diameter via their unique morphology and expression of contractile proteins.

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.Abstract Background Children with intestinal failure are at risk for kidney dysfunction; however, the contributing factors are not well established. We aimed to describe risk factors associated with glomerular and tubular renal dysfunction in children with intestinal failure.
