BACKGROUND Ischemic colitis(IC)is common,rising in incidence and associated with high mortality.Its presentation,disease behavior and severity vary widely,and there is significant heterogeneity in therapeutic strategi...
Background and Objective: Serum creatinine, a commonly used biomarker in determining glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage, is highly variable biologically and does not rise until > 5...
BACKGROUND Renal failure is an independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with cirrhosis.Equations to calculate serum creatinine significantly overestimate the glomerular filtration rate(GFR).Plasma cleara...
One of the most important tools used to evaluate kidney function in the context of chronic kidney disease or other renal function related pathologies is the exploration of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Iohexol is ...
Neurotoxicity is an infrequent adverse reaction to iodinated contrast agents. Contrast induced neurotoxicity following coronary angiogram is very rare. Renal disease is a risk factor for contrast induced neurotoxicity...
AIM:To study intestinal permeability(IP) and its relationship to the disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD)-Crohn's disease(CD) and ulcerative colitis(UC).METHODS:Fifty-eight patients with ...
