Glomerular structure in the normal human kidney: differences between living and cadaver donors.
Glomerular structure has been studied in tissues derived from normal living and cadaver kidney donors. Values obtained in such subjects were considered interchangeable and have been used to define the normal parameters when evaluating the effects of various renal diseases. The present study evaluated glomerular structure by light and electron microscopy in 83 living and 53 cadaver kidney donors...
متن کاملIncome of living kidney donors and the income difference between living kidney donors and their recipients in the United States.
Disincentives for living kidney donation are common but are poorly understood.

متن کاملPredictors of decision ambivalence and the differences between actual living liver donors and potential living liver donors
BACKGROUND The decision to become a living liver donor is a stressful event. Ambivalence in decision making may result in psychological distress. Thus, the purpose of this study was to provide a description of the ambivalence of potential living liver donors, to examine the predictors of ambivalence, and to compare the ambivalence of potential living liver donors with that of actual living live...
متن کاملIs cystatin C valuable marker of glomerular filtration rate in living kidney donors after uninephrectomy?
BACKGROUND The determination of kidney function plays a pivotal role in living donors renal assessment because of the long-term hazards of life with one kidney. Guidelines recommend estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by the Modification of Renal Disease (MDRD) or Cockroft-Gault equations for people with normal or near-normal renal function. Cystatin C (CysC) has been introduced as a...
