Neutrophils and renal failure

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1999
In many diseases and acute inflammatory disorders, important components of pathological processes are linked to the neutrophils' ability to release a complex assortment of agents that can destroy normal cells and dissolve connective tissue. This review summarizes the mechanisms of tissue destruction by neutrophils and the role of kidney-specific ...

Acute renal failure

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2009
Acute renal failure (now acute kidney injury) is a common complication of critical illness affecting between 30 and 60% of critically ill patients.

The Anemia of Renal Failure

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1958
The association of anemia with uremia is a striking one. However, just as the actual pathogenesis of the signs and symptoms associated with renal disease is poorly understood, so also is the mechanism of development of anemia in this syndrome. It is the purpose of these investigations to evaluate the relative importance of productive and destructive ...

RENAL FAILURE IN MALARIA

The Lancet, 1967
Abstract Renal failure of short duration was observed in three patients who had a heavy infestation of Plasmodium falciparum. This was associated with a low urine-sodium, a retained ability of tubular reabsorption of water, and non-remarkable urine findings. There was no evidence of dehydration or intravascular haemolysis.

False renal failure and chronic renal failure

1995
False renal failure is an increase in Scr without a fall in GFR due to one of the etiologies listed in Table 7.1. (See the section, Misleading Elevation in Scr, in Chapter 5.) The physician needs to consider this diagnosis when the Scr increases without a change in BUN or when he recognizes one of the conditions on Table 7.1.
