Over an eight-year period 172 patients received allograft from a living, related donor, 112 cadaveric transplants, and 125 were placed on home dialysis. In of three years, 287 passed through our center dialysis program. Analysis survival curves shows that patient was significantly better in recipients transplants donors than those receiving cadaver graft. One-year rates for parental, sibling allografts 84.2, 89.5 68.7 per cent respectively. Survival at one two years home-dialysis 88.5 77.8...

Uremic pericarditis occurred in 41% of 83 patients admitted to the chronic dialysis program at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital. In vast majority these was present before and cleared clinically after beginning therapy. Instances that developed during regular were associated with metabolic stress such as surgery or infection inadequate dialysis. When failed resolve usually died sepsis had severe tamponade which necessitated early pericardiectomy. The two cases reported illustrate resorption...

Of 225 patients who underwent renal transplantation, 100 (44%) later demonstrated osseous changes. Avascular necrosis was seen at the femoral head in 56 and other sites 21. Subperiosteal resorption found 48, osteosclerosis 24, pathological fractures 30. Other lesions included brown tumors, osteomyelitis, osteopenia, periostitis. These findings represent most aspects of skeletal involvement failure following transplantation.

1. The detailed udder health records of 530 lactations have been analysed on a monthly and lactation basis, so that separate studies the first infection rate, re-infection total new rate mastitis incidence for both cows quarters could be made. These data used to study relationship stage lactation, age season year with mastitis. 2. With advancing there was decline in infection, reinfection, infected quarters. 3. In early marked tendency develop clinical symptoms. 4. During last 4 months no...

By using a 125I collimated point source to measure bone mineral, 700 measurements were obtained from the cortical of lower arm in 303 patients with renal failure representing every stage disease. Of these patients, 123 had received transplants. The following conclusions can be drawn: (a) Prolonged azotemia leads severe loss which, early stages, is only detectable photon absorptiometry. (b) Gradual mineral occurs during dialysis, (c) Parathyroidectomy slows this but fails reverse it. (d)...

1. The coefficient of variation lactation milk yield was approximately 25% for all age groups. That milk-fat percentage 10% and that solids-not-fat only 3%. last two coefficients tended to increase with the cow. 2. Lactation least first calvers rose a maximum sixth calvers. Milk quality highest 3. No tendency vary season calving could be found any record group. 4. During years herd's existence there small negative correlation between percentage. This has disappeared in more recent years. 5....

Background DOQI (The Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative) recommend 40% of prevalent renal failure patients should be undergoing hemodialysis (HD) using autogenous arteriovenous fistulae (AVF). The aim this study is to assess the primary patency rates wrist and elbow fistulae, examine how patient variables influence success a fistula. In addition, an attempt has been made address main issue survival in high risk population. Methods A retrospective was performed on all University Hospital...

Serum lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), and amylase levels were determined in 76 chronically uremic patients. LDH was increased 77% of 486 determinations, only 10% the abnormal could be accounted for by pathological conditions known to increase LDH. GOT generally normal. 32% 175 determinations. There is a high incidence We caution against overinterpretation these findings costly often unnecessary search their significance.

Six patients with severe chronic renal failure and hypertension were evaluated before again 1 4 months following bilateral nephrectomy while being maintained regular hemodialysis. Hemodynamic function body composition measured by isotope dilution each study. The mean femoral artery blood pressure (B.P.) of 142 mm Hg fell to 136 ( P , ns ) at month 120 < 0.005). This was mainly reflected in a drop diastolic 13 <0.025). Total peripheral resistance tended decrease, whereas, cardiac index...

1. The effect on cow health of galactopoietic stimulation with thyroactive materials was determined from a statistical study the results large field experiment involving 2000 cows over 3-year period. 2. same experimental procedure followed thirty-seven farms scattered England, Scotland and Wales. This planned to ensure that half in each herd would receive course treatment iodinated casein or thyroxine, other constitute suitable set controls. Cows remained herds received second third...
