چکیده

Abstract Background and Aims Standard ultrasound mainly offers information about structural kidney alterations which may provide dates regarding the mass of filtrating (e.g. nephron number), or obstructive alterations. Furthermore, parenchymal Doppler resistance index, is highly correlated to plasma creatinine levels. However, in conditions isolated proteinuria with normal function these two classical methods do not reveal any alteration. We have hypothesized that stiffness a mismatch between levels indices offer additional features help nephrologist classification diseases. Method In this respect, we performed transversal study on 468 patients available index both spleen, clinical variables (including hemoglobin, creatinine, cholesterol, proteinuria, hypertension, diabetes) shearwave elastometry, gives an estimate parenchimal stiffness. order identify renal introduced (KMI) derived from ratio chronic patients, argued acute settings (and hence index) are altered whereas size normal: therefore over was tested as quantitative marker chronicity. Results confirm strong correlation (Pearson coeff. 0.318, p<0.01).

Resistive index of the remaining kidney in allograft kidney donors.

OBJECTIVES Kidney transplant is the last resort in patients with end-stage renal disease. In living-kidney donors undergoing nephrectomy for transplant; however, morphologic and hemodynamic changes may occur in the remaining kidney with time. If there would be such a change, then it may alter the diagnostic utility of Doppler ultrasound in evaluating diseased conditions of the solitary kidney. ...

Obesity and Kidney Disease

The rise in the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and an increase in the prevalence of obesity in parallel in the recent years is a great concern. CKD increases the rate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and development of end-stage renal disease, and leads to premature death. Although no direct causality link between obesity and CKD can yet be established, this appears highly probable. ...

Renal resistive index and mortality in chronic kidney disease.

Renal resistive index (RRI) measured by Doppler ultrasonography is associated with cardiovascular events and mortality in hypertensive, diabetic, and elderly patients. We studied the factors associated with high RRI (≥0.70) and its associations with mortality in chronic kidney disease patients without renal artery stenosis. We included 1962 patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate ...
