* Renal threshold, the level at which a given substance in the blood is taken up by the kidneys and enters the urine

See also: Renal threshold.

* Renal threshold of glucose, a factor in the medical condition glycosuria

* Renal – A term that means having something to do with the kidneys.

Renal thresholds vary by substance – the low potency poison urea, for instance, is removed at much lower concentrations than glucose.

* Genitourinary – Renal failure, interstitial nephritis, BUN and serum creatinine elevation NOT associated with renal damage, toxic nephrosis with oliguria and anuria, and crystalluria.

Hemofiltration is most commonly used in an intensive care unit setting, where it is either given as 8 – 12 hours treatments, so called SLEF ( slow extended hemofiltration ), or as CHF ( continuous hemofiltration also sometimes called continuous veno-venous hemofiltration ( CVVH )) or Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy ( CRRT ).

Renal blood flow may be affected by angiotensin II because it vasoconstricts the efferent arterioles of the glomeruli of the kidney, thereby increasing glomerular filtration rate ( GFR ).

Renal cell carcinoma ( RCC, also known as hypernephroma ) is a kidney cancer that originates in the lining of the proximal convoluted tubule, the very small tubes in the kidney that filter the blood and remove waste products.

Renal clearance of PAH is thus useful in calculation of renal plasma flow ( RPF ), which empirically is ( 1-Hematocrit ) times renal blood flow.

Renal artery stenosis, or narrowing of one or both renal arteries will lead to hypertension as the affected kidneys release renin to increase blood pressure to preserve perfusion to the kidneys.

The company had 2009 sales of $ 12. 6 billion, across three manufacturing divisions: BioScience ( producing recombinant and blood plasma proteins to treat hemophilia and other bleeding disorders ; plasma-based therapies to treat immune deficiencies and other chronic and acute blood-related conditions ; products for regenerative medicine ; and vaccines ); Medication Delivery ( producing intravenous solutions and other products used in the delivery of fluids and drugs to patients, as well as inhalation anesthetics and contract manufacturing services ); and Renal ( providing products to treat end-stage renal disease, or irreversible kidney failure, including solutions and other products for peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis ).

Renal impairment is a significant adverse effect of all ACE inhibitors, but the reason is still unknown.

Renal physiology is the study of kidney function, while nephrology is the medical specialty concerned with kidney diseases.

Renal replacement therapy, in the form of dialysis or kidney transplantation, is indicated when the glomerular filtration rate has fallen very low or if the renal dysfunction leads to severe symptoms.

The Renal Support Network ( RSN ) is a nonprofit, patient-focused, patient-run organization that provides non-medical services to those affected by chronic kidney disease ( CKD ).

Renal failure is especially a risk if the patient is also concomitantly taking an ACE inhibitor ( which removes angiotensin II's vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole ) and a diuretic ( which drops plasma volume, and thereby RPF )-the so-called " triple whammy " effect.

Renal involvement, in scleroderma, is considered a poor prognostic factor and frequently a cause of death.

Renal Plasma Flow ( RPF ) is decreased due to hypo perfusion which results in a proportional decrease in GFR.

Renal underexcretion of uric acid is the primary cause of hyperuricemia in about 90 % of cases, while overproduction is the cause in less than 10 %.

Renal vein thrombosis is the obstruction of the renal vein by a thrombus.

Renal failure accompanied by noticeable symptoms is termed uraemia.

Renal osteodystrophy is a consequence of chronic renal failure related to the calcium metabolism.

Renal acidosis is associated with an accumulation of urea and creatinine as well as metabolic acid residues of protein catabolism.

Renal physiology ( Latin rēnēs, " kidney ") is the study of the physiology of the kidney.

Renal function, in nephrology, is an indication of the state of the kidney and its role in renal physiology.

The most recently advocated formula for calculating the GFR is the one that was developed by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study Group.

Renal elimination is the major route of excretion with about 60 % of an administered dose recovered in urine, largely as inactive pyridine metabolites.

* Renal tubule: the minute canals made up of basement membrane and lined with epithelium, composing the substance of the kidney and secreting, reabsorbing, collecting and conducting the urine.

Renal disease such as nephrotic syndrome produces a fatty cast composed of cholesterol that also has a " maltese cross " appearance on light microscopy.

Renal failure is common, present in more than 50 % of ALF patients, either due to original insult such as paracetamol resulting in acute tubular necrosis or from hyperdynamic circulation leading to hepatorenal syndrome or functional renal failure.

* Renal ectopia occurs when both kidneys are on the same side of the body

* Renal cyst ( kidneys )

* Renal — Horseshoe, aplastic, dysplastic, or hypoplastic kidneys.

* Renal corpuscles — the initial filtering component of nephrons in the kidneys

Renal agenesis is a medical condition in which one ( unilateral ) or both ( bilateral ) fetal kidneys fail to develop.

Renal insufficiency causes decreased bloodflow to the kidneys, which decreases the glomerular filtration rate ( GFR ) and reduces the ability of loop diuretics to reach their target organ, the loop of Henle.

* Renal agenesis-failure of one or both of the kidneys to develop

* Renal function test-an indication of the state of the kidneys
