Severe acute kidney injury associated with immersion into seawater
Cogent Medicine, 2017 Near drowning is an important, but rarely reported precipitant of acute kidney injury (AKI). The underlying pathophysiology is thought to be ischaemic kidney injury, but diagnostic uncertainty has arisen due to reports of isolated AKI in the absence of ...

Human renal and systemic hemodynamic, natriuretic, and neurohumoral responses to different doses of L-NAME [PDF]
, 1998 Experimental evidence indicates that the renal circulation is more sensitive to the effects of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis inhibition than other vascular beds. To explore whether in men the NO-mediated vasodilator tone is

Renal pericytes: regulators of medullary blood flow [PDF]
, 2012 Regulation of medullary blood flow (MBF) is essential in maintaining normal kidney function. Blood flow to the medulla is supplied by the descending vasa recta (DVR), which arise from the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary glomeruli.
