Cold perfusion through the renal arteries during renal ischemia has been suggested to diminish postoperative renal damage after juxtarenal aortic aneurysm repair. As the kidneys play a key role in dimethylarginine metabolism, which in turn is associated with renal hemodynamics, we hypothesized that the protective effect of cold perfusion is associated with a preserved renal extraction of dimeth...

Introduction. The effect of various minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones on renal function has not been sufficiently studied. To assess the specificity, severity, and prognostic significance injury urolithiasis its treatment, it is necessary to search «biomarkers injury». concentration serum urea creatinine used in routine clinical practice, glomerular filtration rate change later sta...
