Research in renal transplantation continues to document scores of disparities affecting vulnerable populations at various stages along the transplantation process. Given that both biological and environmental determinants contribute significantly to variation, identifying factors underlying an unfairly biased distribution of the disease burden is crucial. Confounded definitions and gaps in unde...

chronic kidney disease (ckd) is a major public health problem that often goes unrecognized until late-stagedisease. patients with chronic kidney disease face with uremic toxins and hyperkalemia. also fluid overloadin ckd patients is associated with rapid decline in kidney function. lactulose is a hyper osmotic agent andas a prebiotic plays an important role in regulating serum urea and potassiu...

background endothelial injury is a well-known complication in chronic kidney disease (ckd) and hemodialysis. one of the sites in which early vascular changes may be detected is the retina. of course, these flow changes may not be detected in ophthalmologic exams, but it seems that color doppler sonography of retinal arteries may be helpful in these cases. objectives in previous studies on ckd p...

The relationship between hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is bidirectional in nature and, generally, management strategies for cardiovascular risk reduction also attenuate progression of CKD. Prevalent hypertension increases with diminishing kidney function, and the management strategy changes with level of kidney function. In this review, we will examine the evidence for managemen...
