Signaling pathways involved in renal oxidative injury: role of the vasoactive peptides and the renal dopaminergic system [PDF]
The physiological hydroelectrolytic balance and the redox steady state in the kidney are accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors.

Role of kidney stones in renal pelvis flow [PDF]
We examine the time-dependent flow dynamics inside an idealised renal pelvis in the context of a surgical procedure for kidney stone removal, extending previous work by Williams et al. (2020,2021), who showed how vortical flow structures can hinder mass transport in a canonical two-dimensional domain.

Precise Estimation of Renal Vascular Dominant Regions Using Spatially Aware Fully Convolutional Networks, Tensor-Cut and Voronoi Diagrams [PDF]
This paper presents a new approach for precisely estimating the renal vascular dominant region using a Voronoi diagram. To provide computer-assisted diagnostics for the pre-surgical simulation of partial nephrectomy surgery, we must obtain information on the renal arteries and the renal vascular dominant regions.

Troponins, Acute Coronary Syndrome and Renal Disease: From Acute Kidney Injury Through End-stage Kidney Disease [PDF]
The diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is heavily dependent on cardiac biomarker assays, particularly cardiac troponins. ACS, particularly non-ST segment elevation MI, are more common in patients with acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease (

Disappearance of Bradykinin in the Renal Circulation of Dogs: EFFECTS OF KININASE INHIBITION
In chloralose-anesthetized dogs, we investigated the disappearance of bradykinin on passage across the renal circulation. The peptide was infused into a renal artery at various doses (5-200 ng/kg min−1); renal blood flow and the concentration of kinins ...

948-46 Preserved Cardiac Baroreflex Control of Renal Cortical Blood Flow in Advanced Heart Failure Patients: A Positron Emission Tomography Study [PDF]
Cardiac baroreflex (CBR) control of forearm blood flow (FBF) is blunted or reversed in humans with heart failure (HF). but little is known about CBR control of renal cortical blood flow (RCBF) in HF due to technical limitations.

Tamm-Horsfall Protein Regulates Mononuclear Phagocytes in the Kidney [PDF]
Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP), also known as uromodulin, is a kidney-specific protein produced by cells of the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. Although predominantly secreted apically into the urine, where it becomes highly polymerized, THP is ...

Oral contraceptive progestins and angiotensin-dependent control of the renal circulation in humans
Oral contraceptive (OC) use is associated with increased intrarenal 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 ...

Tumors arising from the inferior vena cava are rare. The commonest histological type among these rare tumors is leiomyosarcoma. Complete resection of the tumor is the mainstay of management. Concomitant right nephrectomy during resection may be required.
