Coffee, nutritional status, and renal artery resistive index [PDF]
The relationship between nutrition and atherosclerosis is known, even dissociated from protein malnutrition. Cardiovascular impact of several nutrients is known; among them the action of coffee is still debated and cardiovascular effect of caffeine has been investigated without definite results.The aim of this study is to investigate whether coffee ...

Objective: To evaluate the hemodynamic and other general determinants of the renal resistive index IRR in a group of middle age hypertensive subjects. Design and method: The population of our study were 62 patients 34 females and 28 males, mean age 45,26 years +/- 5,2 years with grade I-II arterial hypertension.

Transabdominal Renal Doppler Ultrasound in Healthy Adult Holstein-Friesian Cows: A Pilot Study
There is a notable lack of reference values for the renal resistive indices in the bovine kidney. Ultrasound (US) Doppler evaluation of these indices is a powerful, non-invasive technique for assessing, monitoring and diagnosing renal diseases in humans ...

Renal Resistive Index and Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes in Essential Hypertension [PDF]
In the September issue of Hypertension , Doi et al1 analyzed the prognostic implications of elevated ultrasound renal resistive indices (RRI) in hypertensive subjects without overt cardiovascular disease. In line with earlier studies among patients with chronic kidney disease and among kidney allograft recipients, elevated RRI were found to predict ...

ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Renal Resistive Index and Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes in Essential Hypertension [PDF]
Increased renal restive index (RI) measured using Doppler ultrasonography has been shown to correlate with the degree of renal impairment in hypertensive patients. We investigated the prognostic role of RI in cardiovascular and renal outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.
