2,8-Dihydroxyadeninuria-induced progressive renal failure

Adenine phosphoribosyl-transferase (APRT) is the key enzyme that transforms adenine into adenylate monophosphate (AMP). In case of APRT deficiency, xanthine oxidase rapidly oxidizes adenine into 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (2,8-DHA), which is then eliminated by the kidneys through tubular secretion. 2,8-DHA is insoluble at a physiologic range of pH; therefore, it can easily precipitate in the urine. A...

Accuracy of modification of diet for renal disease and Cockcroft-Gault equations as compared to the radioisotope double sample method: A study in patients with acute renal failure

Introduction: We intended to assess the accuracy of re-expressed Modification of Diet for Renal Disease (MDRD) and Cockcroft-Gault (CG) equations to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in chronic kidney disease in two different etiologies of acute renal failure (ARF): acute tubular necrosis (ATN) and acute glomerulonephritis (AGN). Methods: Patients admitted for ARF or the patients compl...

Effect of aminophylline on renal function of brain injury patients with acute renal failure admitted to the intensive care unit

Introdution: Acute renal failure is a common complication in the brain injury patients. Released adenosine in injury can reduce renal glomerular filtration. Aminophylline is an inhibitor of releasing adenosine. So, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of intravenous aminophylline in renal function of brain-injured patients with acute renal failure admitted to the intensive care unit. Method...
