Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: The Correlation Between Renal Doppler Ultrasound and Laboratory Parameters Polikistik Over Sendromu: Laboratuvar Parametreleri, Renal Doppler Ultrasonografi İlişkisi

Cigarette Smoking and Cardiovascular Risk in Young Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Resistive Index as a Marker of Renal Pathology in Children with Chronic Kidney Disease; Is It Useful?

Background Chronic kidney disease is a global health concern, its detection and diagnosis in earlier stages is also a great challenge that can alleviate this burden. Kidney biopsy is important to establish histopathological patterns. But, it is invasive. We aimedto evaluate the correlation of renal resistive index (RI) measured by Doppler ultrasound with the prog...

Comparison of Diagnostic Value of Intrarenal Doppler Indices and Microalbuminuria for Detection of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type II Diabetic Patients

Background & Aims: Diabetes is the most common cause of renal insufficiency throughout the world. The main cause of renal failure in diabetic patients is microvascular endothelial injuries that is secondary to atherosclerosis and ischemia. The efficacy of renal Doppler indices such as resistive index (RI) and pulsetile index (PI) for the evaluation of intrarenal arteries has been shown. This st...

Doppler flow velocities of uterine and ovarian arteries & hormonal patterns in patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome is a complex disorder characterized by elevated androgens, chronic anovulation, and polycystic picture on ultrasound it is one of the most common hormonal disorders, affecting 5%–10% of women of reproductive age. Despite many diagnostic criteria, controversies still exist in definition, evaluation and management of PCOS. Aims and Objective: To investigate...

بررسی حدود طبیعی معیارهای سونوگرافی داپلر در شرایین کلیویEvaluation of Normal Doppler Indices in Renal Arteries

    Background & Aim: Doppler ultrasonography is important in diagnosis of renal diseases by demonstrating vascular anatomy and hemodynamics. There is not any fix doppler indices in all of the references and it is suggested that each center should have its own standards. Also it is proved that biologic indices are not the same in different societies. The present study was performed on normal Ir...
