Chronic Fluid Flow Is an Environmental Modifier of Renal Epithelial Function
Although solitary or sensory cilia are present in most cells of the body and their existence has been known since the sixties, very little is been known about their functions. One suspected function is fluid flow sensing- physical bending of cilia produces an influx of Ca(++), which can then result in a variety of activated signaling pathways. Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD...
متن کاملCongenital Hepatic Fibrosis: An Uncommon Cause of Chronic Renal Failure
Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis (CHF) is a rare disease that affects both the liver and kidneys. Congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is an autosomal recessive inherited malformation defined pathologically by a variable degree of periportal fibrosis and irregularly shaped proliferating bile ducts. Affected individuals also have impaired renal function, usually caused, in children and teenagers, by an...
متن کاملAn Alternating Direction Implicit Method for Modeling of Fluid Flow
This research includes of the numerical modeling of fluids in two-dimensional cavity. The cavity flow is an important theoretical problem. In this research, modeling was carried out based on an alternating direction implicit via Vorticity-Stream function formulation. It evaluates different Reynolds numbers and grid sizes. Therefore, for the flow field analysis and prove of the ability of the sc...
متن کاملEffects of Chronic Administration of Different Doses of Nitrate on Renal Function in Female Rats
Introduction: As a nitric oxide (NO) donor, nitrate administration improves renal function in male animals. This study aims to determine the effects of chronic administration of different doses of nitrate on kidney function in normal adult female rats by measuring serum urea and creatinine and assessing the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Materials and Method: Two-month old female ...
متن کاملTemporary perioperative decline of renal function is an independent predictor for chronic kidney disease.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Acute kidney injury is an independent predictor of short- and long-term survival; however, data on the relationship between reversible transitory decline of kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are lacking. We assessed the prognostic value of temporary renal function decline on the development of long-term CKD. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENT...
