Renal Dysfunction in Patients with Chronic Liver Disease [PDF]
Renal dysfunction in patients with chronic liver disease encompasses a clinical spectrum of hyponatremia, ascites, and hepatorenal syndrome. Clinical observation has suggested that patients with cirrhosis have hyperdynamic circulation, and recent studies

Variations in Arterial Blood Pressure after Kidney Transplantation [PDF]
The course of hypertension within the first 2 months after kidney transplantation was correlated with renal function, plasma renin activity (PRA), and the daily maintenance dose of prednisone in 18 homograft recipients.

Partial renal coverage in EVAR causes unfavorable renal flow patterns in an infrarenal aneurysm model [PDF]
Objective: To achieve an optimal sealing zone during EVAR, the intended positioning of the proximal end of the endograft fabric should be as close as possible to the most caudal edge of the renal arteries. Some endografts exhibit a small offset between the radiopaque markers and the proximal fabric edge.

Severe acute kidney injury associated with immersion into seawater
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 ...

Oral contraceptive progestins and angiotensin-dependent control of the renal circulation in humans [PDF]
Oral contraceptive (OC) use is associated with increased intra-renal renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAA System) activity and risk of nephropathy, though the contribution of progestins contained in the OC in the regulation of angiotensin-dependent ...

The method to prepare reno-vascular castings for scanning electron microscopy was described. This new devised method, a frozen cracking of the vascular casts following resin injection, made it possible to observe easily and distinctly the normal renal microcirculation including pentubular and glomerular capillary architecture.
