Total renal denervation reduces sympathoexcitation to different target organs in a model of chronic kidney disease
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017)
It is known that increased sympathetic nerve activity in chronic kidney disease (CKD) progressively worsens kidney function and hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that total renal denervation contributes to reduce ...
GLOMERULAR HEMODYNAMICS DURING ABORTION INDUCED BY RU-486 AND SEPSIS IN RATS
(Assoc Bras Divulg Cientifica, 1994-06-01)
1. Acute renal failure is a very common consequence of septic abortion. Whole kidney and glomerular hemodynamics were evaluated in virgin (V), pregnant (PREG) and aborted (ABOR) euvolemic Munich-Wistar rats before and after ...
Evaluation of renal and hepatic functions in dogs naturally infected by visceral leishmaniasis submitted to treatment with meglumine antimoniate
(Elsevier B.V., 2007-08-01)
The present study aimed to evaluate the renal and hepatic responses in eight dogs with visceral leishmaniasis submitted to treatment with meglumine antimoniate and to verify the occurrence of possible side effects. Urinalysis, ...
The role of myofibroblasts and interstitial fibrosis in the progression of membranous nephropathy
(2004-09-15)
Renal interstitial fibrosis has been observed in a large number of nephropathies and contributes to the progressive deterioration of renal function. Myofibroblasts have been implicated in the reparative process of tissue ...
Inhibition of hydrogen sulphide formation reduces cisplatin-induced renal damage
(Oxford Univ Press, 2011-02-01)
Background. Cisplatin (CP)-induced renal damage is associated with inflammation. Hydrogen sulphide (H(2)S) is involved in models of inflammation. This study evaluates the effect of DL-propargylglycine (PAG), an inhibitor ...
Skin water uptake and renal function in the toad
(1981-12-01)
1. 1. Water balance in the toad Bufo marinus ictericus was studied by evaluating cutaneous water uptake and renal excretion. 2. 2. The permeability of the skin to water was 78 ± 6 nl min -1 cm -2 atm -1 in 60 toads ...
Lack of correlation between periodontitis and renal dysfunction in systemically healthy patients
(2011-01-01)
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess a suggested association between periodontitis and renal insufficiency by assaying kidney disease markers. Methods: Variables used to diagnose periodontitis were: (i) probing ...
Cross-sex testosterone therapy modifies the renal morphology and function in female rats and might underlie increased systolic pressure
(Blackwell Scientific Publications, 2021-03-12)
Testosterone esters are hormones commonly used for affirming gender identity in transmen. The present study evaluates the effect of testosterone on renal morphology and function in an animal model submitted to cross-sex ...
Uso de nifedipina e incidência de lesão renal aguda em pós-operatório de cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio com CEC
(Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular, 2010-03-01)
OBJETIVO: Avaliar durante o período perioperatório o uso da nifedipina na incidência de lesão renal aguda dos pacientes submetidos à revascularização do miocárdio com circulação extracorpórea. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados, de ...
Efeitos do pentobarbital sódico sobre o fluxo sanguíneo renal. Estudo experimental no cão
(1978-12-01)
In six dogs, previously anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg) for surgical preparation, catheterism and monitoring, the action of sodium pentobarbital (7,5 mg/kg) on renal flow was studied. Determinations of ...
