VALUE ASSESSMENT OF RENAL FUNCTION IN RENAL CELL CARCINOMA
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for 90-95% of all neoplastic lesions of the kidney. In Russia in 2008 defined 17 563 new cases of RCC. In this common tumor found in 45.6 % of cases. A metastatic forms are still a significant part of RCC – 28-32%.

Towards automated identification of changes in laboratory measurement of renal function: implications for longitudinal research and observing trends in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) [PDF]
Introduction: Kidney function is reported using estimates of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, eGFR values are recorded without reference to the creatinine (SCr) assays used to derive them, and newer assays were introduced at different time points across laboratories in UK. These changes may cause systematic bias in eGFR reported in routinely

Current Perspective on the Location and Function of Gamma- Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its Metabolic Partners in the Kidney. [PDF]
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter located in the mammalian central nervous system, which binds to GABAA and GABAB receptors to mediate its neurological effects.

Computation of Total Kidney Volume from CT images in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease using Multi-Task 3D Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) characterized by progressive growth of renal cysts is the most prevalent and potentially lethal monogenic renal disease, affecting one in every 500-100 people. Total Kidney Volume (TKV) and its growth computed from Computed Tomography images has been accepted as an essential prognostic marker for ...

"Suboptimal" kidney donors: The experience with tacrolimus-based immunosuppression [PDF]
Female, pediatric, and older donors have been associated with inferior graft survival after renal transplantation. We analyzed these three subgroups in 397 patients receiving tacrolimus-based immunosuppression. There were no differences in recipient age,
