متن کاملSonographic measurement of renal size in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis: Correlation with residual renal function
Previous studies have reported that renal size may change when the function is compromised. However, it is not known whether sonographically measured renal size reflects the residual renal function (RRF) in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis. A total of 140 patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (≥3 months) were investigated in the present study. The patients were divided into two group...
متن کاملSonographic measurement of fetal pinna length in normal pregnancies.
BACKGROUND Many studies have emphasized on fetal pinna measurements and morphologic features to use this structure as an additional marker for fetal chromosomal anomaly. OBJECTIVES To assess relationship between fetal pinna length and gestation age and develop a nomogram. To assess relationship between fetal pinna length and head circumference and biparietal diameter. METHODS Fetal pinna me...
متن کاملSonographic Assessment of Renal Size in Healthy Adults
OBJECTIVE To assess the normal sonographic values of renal length and cortical thickness in healthy adults and establish reference ranges in our population for comparison when examining renal disease. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Sonographic assessment of renal length and cortical thickness were performed from January 2006 to December 2011 in 252 healthy individuals who were self-referred to the El-R...
متن کاملHigh altitude renal syndrome (HARS).
More than 140 million people live permanently at high altitude (>2400 m) under hypoxic conditions that challenge basic physiology. Here we present a short historical review of the populating of these regions and of evidence for genetic adaptations and environmental factors (such as exposure to cobalt) that may influence the phenotypic responses. We also review some of the common renal physiolog...
