Renal resistive index and cardiovascular and renal outcomes in essential hypertension.
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. A total of 426 essential hypertensive subjects (mean age, 63 years; 50% female) with no previous cardiovascular disease were included in this study. Rena...
متن کاملThe prognostic significance of renal resistive index in essential hypertension.
To the Editor: I read with great interest the paper by Doi et al that was very recently published in Hypertension. The authors demonstrated that, after a mean follow-up period of 3.1 years, renal resistive index (RI) has been found to be an independent predictor of worse cardiovascular and renal outcomes in essential hypertensive patients. Although the study is informative, some additional data...
متن کاملRelationship Between 'Immediate' Resistive Index Measurement After Renal Transplantation and Renal Allograft Outcomes.
BACKGROUND The arterial resistive index, also referred to as the resistive index (RI) or Pourcelot Index, is a measure of pulsatile blood flow. Previous studies have demonstrated the usefulness of the RI as a predictor of allograft outcomes based on RI measurement in the later stages after transplantation. However, there is little evidence of the predictive value of "immediate" RI measurement w...
متن کاملAssociation of Renal Resistive Index, Renal Pulsatility Index, Systemic Hypertension, and Albuminuria with Survival in Dogs with Pituitary-Dependent Hyperadrenocorticism
An increased renal resistive index (RI) and albuminuria are markers of target organ damage secondary to systemic hypertension. This study evaluated associations between systemic blood pressure (SBP), renal RI, pulsatility index (PI), and albuminuria in dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism (PDH). Predictors of overall mortality were investigated. Twenty client-owned dogs with PDH a...
متن کاملRenal 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 ...
