Renal vasoconstriction in association with acute pancreatitis

Renal failure is a common complication of pancreatitis. To better understand this association, renal function was evaluated in eleven patients in the acute phase of alcoholic pancreatitis and again during convalescence in seven patients. Parameters measured included glomerular filtration rate, effective renal plasma flow, true renal plasma flow, renal vascular resistance, osmolar clearance, amylase clearance, renal oxygen consumption, cardiac output, and peripheral resistance.Average glomerular filtration rate, effective renal plasma flow, and true renal plasma flow were decreased in the acute phase. Osmolar clearance, amylase clearance, mean arterial blood pressure, renal vascular resistance, and total peripheral resistance rose in the acute phase. Cardiac index and extracellular fluid space remained normal. All parameters returned toward normal with convalescence.The combination of systemic hypertension, increased total peripheral resistance and renal vascular resistance, and normal extracellular fluid space suggests a release of a vasopressor during the acute phase of pancreatitis. The therapeutic implications of these findings including the role of vasodilator infusion are discussed.     

Renal Cell Carcinoma in Renal Transplantation: The Case for Surveillance

Introduction

Between January 2013 and September 2015, 135 consecutive renal transplant patients were screened prospectively with ultrasound for renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

Shunt Nephritis Progressing to Chronic Renal Failure

Shunt nephritis is an immune-complex mediated glomerular disease associated with chronically infected ventriculo-jugular shunts for hydrocephalus. In general, early diagnosis and appropriate antibiotic therapy result in marked improvement or disappearance of the concomitant urinary and renal functional abnormalities. We describe a child in whom the diagnosis and treatment were delayed until she presented with irreversible renal insufficiency. We conclude that shunt nephritis is not an innocuous condition and that a high level of suspicion must be maintained by those caring for children with ventriculo-jugular shunts.     

Cardiovascular and Renal Outcomes of Renin-Angiotensin System Blockade in Renal Transplant Recipients

Background

There is considerable controversy over the benefits of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). The aim of the study was to research the effects of RAS blockade on allograft and patient outcome.
