Risk Factors for Renal Failure: From Infancy to Adulthood

The incidence and progression of renal injury vary substantially among individuals who are at risk for kidney disease. Variability of risk for the occurrence and progression of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) suggests that biologically relevant characteristics may influence the occurrence or course of the renal disease. Prediction of increased risk of occurrence or progression of CKD may enable cl...

Risk Factors and Prognostic Factors of Acute Renal Failure in Patients Admitted to an Intensive Care Unit, Tehran-Iran

Acute renal failure (ARF) is defined as a sudden and continuous decrease of glomerular function associated with azotemia, and may be followed by decreased urinary output. There is a high incidence of ARF in ICU patients with a high mortality rate. Many factors can promote ARF development or influence its outcome. This study was done to assess the incidence, risk factors, outcome and treatme...

Risk factors of acute renal failure after liver transplantation.

The objective of this study was to determine the risk factors of postoperative acute renal failure (ARF) in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). We reviewed 184 consecutive OLT. Postoperative ARF was defined as a persistent rise of 50% increase or more of the S-creatinine (S-Cr). The patients were classified as early postoperative ARF (E-ARF) (first week) and late postoperative ARF (L-ARF) (...
