Acute Renal Failure: Causes and Prognosis Predisposing Factors for Acute Renal Failure

Acute Renal Failure Following Brake Fluid Poisoning

Brake fluid is a mixture of different Glycol derivatives which are poisoning and their ingestion triggers significant CNS symptoms, severe metabolic acidosis, cardiac, pulmonary, and renal failure. Here in this study, a case is reported who had been ingested 150mL of brake fluid for suicidal attempt.

Agreement and association between the phase angle and parameters of nutritional status assessment in surgical patients.

BACKGROUND & AIMS To assess the agreement and the association between phase angle (PA) and parameters of nutritional status in surgical patients. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study that involved 98 patients admitted for elective gastrointestinal or hernia repair surgery. The risk and nutritional status were evaluated through Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002), Subjective Global ...

Effect of Endothelin-A Receptor Blockade on the Early Phase of Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Acute Renal Failure in Anesthetized Rats

Background: Previous studies have shown increases in endothelin (ET) concentration of plasma and renal tissues in acute renal failure (ARF).  ET has a potent vasoconstrictor effect, through binding with its ETA receptors, and may play some roles in renal hemodynamic dysfunction in ARF.Objective: To examine the beneficial effect of a selective ETA-receptor antagonist on renal dysfunction and tis...
