Severe hypercalcemia in the course of renal failure is quite unusual. If unrecognized, irreversible inexorable attrition of renal function takes place, carrying a substantial morbidity and mortality. In particular, acute nonobstructive pyelonephritis is barely considered in the primary differential diagnosis of renal failure. Without urinary obstruction, kidney hypoperfusion, or exposure to nep...

a male patient with acute renal failure (arf) due to large b-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma infiltration of kidney is presented. the diagnosis was suspected because of coincidence of arf and tumor lysis syndrome non-responsive to conservative renal therapies. a renal biopsy confirmed diagnosis and appropriate chemotherapy led to complete improvement of renal function.

Objective(s):Hyperglycemia mediated oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications like nephropathy. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of ethanolic extract of Ensete superbum seeds (ESSE) on renal dysfunction and oxidative stress in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods:Glucose, HbA1c, total protein, albumin, renal function mar...

background kawasaki disease (kd) is a vasculitis affecting multi-organ systems including liver and kidneys. kd is diagnosed by some clinical criteria including sterile pyuria, microscopic hematuria, proteinuria due to renal involvement, liver abnormalities manifesting as abnormal liver function tests, gallbladder hydrops, and hypoalbuminemia. objectives the aim of the study was to determine the...

acute renal failure is one of the side effects while using intravenous immunoglobulins. this complication is also observed with iodinated contrast media. herein, we describe a patient with acute renal failure who received intravenous immunoglobulins and iodinated contrast media concomitantly. both drugs are responsible for osmotic nephrosis. the same effect on renal cells may explain a synergis...

INTRODUCTION- Cardiovascular disease has emerged as a major health burden worldwide with coronary artery disease [CAD] causing highest mortality and morbidity. Coronary revascularization is the preferred treatment for patients with multivessel CAD. Based on the application of cardiopulmonary bypass [CPB], Coronary revascularization can be on-pump [OPCAB] or off-pump [CABG].The CPB is known to h...

obesity is accompanied with renal dysfunction, so renal impairment is more prevalent in obese people. renal function can be assessed via markers such as cystatin c (cys c), creatinine (crn) and glomerular filtration rate (gfr). as the effect of exercise training on renal function has been less investigated, this study aimed to study the effect of eight weeks of aerobic training and 10 days of d...
