Introduction: We previously reported that malignant hypertension is associated with impaired capillary density of target organs. Here, we tested the hypothesis that stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) in a modified “preconditioning” approach ...

Renal artery bypass including aortic graft for renovascular hypertension
Background: Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is a rare renal manifestation of tuberous sclerosis (TS). In children, it leads to renovascular hypertension that can be managed medically or surgically.

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

Renovascular hypertension is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Interest in identifying patients with renal artery stenosis has been stimulated recently by advances in three areas. First, is the realization that not only can renal artery stenosis cause renovascular hypertension, but it can also lead to progressive renal failure (ischemic ...
