background: acute renal failure describes as a syndrome by rapid decline in the ability of the kidney to eliminate waste products, regulate acid–base balance, and manage water homeostasis. when this impairment is prolonged and entered chronic phase, erythropoietin secretion by this organ is decreasing and toxic metabolic accumulates and causes hematological changes include decrease of hct, mcv ...

Cardiorenal syndromes (CRSs) with bidirectional heart-kidney signaling are increasingly being recognized for their association with increased morbidity and mortality. In acute CRS, recognition of the importance of worsening kidney function complicating management of acute decompensated heart failure has led to the examination of this specific outcome in the context of acute heart failure clinic...

A 10-year-old boy presented with headache and visual disturbance. During work-up in hospital he developed acute renal failure with a maximum creatinine level of 534 μmol/l. Complete blood count was normal. Kidney and bone marrow biopsy both showed massive infiltration of lymphoblasts of T-cell linage. Renal function normalized rapidly on prednisolone therapy. Kidney involvement in acute lymphob...

OBJECTIVE This study describes a new sonographic finding in renal failure: perirenal lucency, which we call the "kidney sweat" sign. MATERIALS AND METHODS During 1 year at our institution, 502 renal sonograms were obtained. Sonography evaluated 330 patients with renal failure. All of the examinations were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS An extracapsular hypoechoic rim was present in 47 (1...

Objective: To evaluate a mathematical model to study the dynamics of renal failure in patients with acute kidney injury. Methods: A mathematical model was applied to simulate the “dynamic path of renal lesion” in patients with acute kidney injury. results: The dynamics of glomerular filtration rate was simulated with the real data of a patient attended at the Intensive Care Unit. conclusions: T...

Kidney failure remains one of the dreaded diseases worldwide. The factors of kidney problem/failure remain to be determined. The paper gives the basic idea of rough set theory. The procedure to carry out the operation of rough set theory with lower and upper approximation sets briefly explained. Some applications of rough set theory in the field of medicine w.r.t kidney failures are initiated a...
