Postoperative renal function in patients is unaltered after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011
BackgroundPneumoperitoneum with an intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) of 14 mmHg is known to decrease renal function. Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) requires an IAP of more than 15 mmHg for operation. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated

Reversal of hepatorenal syndrome type 1 with terlipressin plus albumin vs. placebo plus albumin in a pooled analysis of the OT-0401 and REVERSE randomised clinical studies [PDF]

, 2017
Background The goal of hepatorenal syndrome type 1 (HRS-1) treatment is to improve renal function. Terlipressin, a synthetic vasopressin analogue, is a systemic vasoconstrictor used for the treatment of HRS-1, where it is available.

Correlation between differential renal function estimation using CT-based functional renal parenchymal volume and 99m Tc - DTPA renal scan

Indian Journal of Urology, 2012
Introduction and Objective: Nuclear renal scan is currently the gold standard imaging study to determine differential renal function. We propose helical CT as single modality for both the anatomical and functional evaluation of kidney with impaired ...

Optimizing Screening Performance for the Risk of Hyperoxaluria and Urolithiasis Using the Urinary Oxalate/Creatinine Ratio: A Retrospective Analysis

European Urology Open Science
Background and objective: The risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and nephrolithiasis increases with higher levels of oxalate excretion in 24-h urine, warranting monitoring in specific populations, especially after malabsorptive bariatric surgery ...

Continued monitoring of acute kidney injury survivors might not be necessary in those regaining an estimated glomerular filtration rate > 60 mL/min at 1 year [PDF]

, 2017
Background. Severe acute kidney injury (AKI) among hospitalized patients often necessitates initiation of short-term dialysis. Little is known about the long-term outcome of those who recover to normal renal function.

Risk factors of long-term postoperative renal function after partial nephrectomy in a solitary kidney

Open Life Sciences, 2017
The effect of warm ischemia time (WIT) on longterm renal function after partial nephrectomy remains controversial. In this retrospectively cohort study, 75 solitary kidney patients were included and the effects of warm ischemia time, preoperative renal ...

Pathfinder cells provide a novel therapeutic intervention for acute kidney injury [PDF]

, 2013
Pathfinder cells (PCs) are a novel class of adult-derived cells that facilitate functional repair of host tissue. We used rat PCs to demonstrate that they enable the functional mitigation of ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury in a mouse model of renal ...
