• Hypotension

  However, antioxidant treatment did not affect XOR-mediated hypotensive effects of nitrite. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Secondary hyperaldosteronism also occurs as a physiological mechanism in hypotensive states, such as cardiac failure, but the present discussion focuses on presentation with hypertension. [clinicaladvisor.com]

• Hypertensive Retinopathy

  During clinical course, typical signs include sudden onset of severe and poorly controlled hypertension, renal insufficiency, proteinuria and hypertensive retinopathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Hypertensive retinopathy was found in 74% of cases. At biological investigations: mean serum creatinine was 423 μmol/l (167–829), nephrotic syndrome was observed in 34% of patients. [journals.lww.com]

  At that time, the laboratory tests and renal ultrasound were normal and the eye fundus revealed a Keith-Wagener grade I hypertensive retinopathy. [revistanefrologia.com]

• Claustrophobia

  This test cannot be done in patients with metal implants, pacemakers, or claustrophobia ( fear of closed spaces ). It may be used in people with mild to moderate, but not severe, kidney problems. [medicinenet.com]

• Polyuria

  They initially presented with severe hyponatremia, hypokalemia, polyuria, and transient proteinuria. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Cesarean Section

  The patient was born at term, and delivery was through cesarean section without complications. Pregnancy was uneventful. Her chromosome constitution was 46, XX. The parents are not consanguineous, and there are no similar cases in the family. [scielo.br]

• Headache

  One week later, he was readmitted with headache, nausea, vomiting, seizure activity, and hypertension. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Clinical examination showed headaches (92%), confusion (26%) and vision problems (63%). High blood pressure, and mild to moderate proteinuria were found in all cases. Hypertensive retinopathy was found in 74% of cases. [journals.lww.com]

  During the year in which he was monitored, he had hypertensive emergency associated with headaches. Among the additional tests conducted, laboratory and eye fundus tests and renal ultrasound were normal. [revistanefrologia.com]

  Symptoms of severely elevated blood pressure include: Headache Confusion Blurry or double vision Bloody (pink-colored) urine Nosebleed The vast majority of people with renal hypertension never experience these (or any) symptoms. [webmd.com]

• Irritability

  We describe the case of a 13-month-old baby boy with failure to thrive, recent muscular weakness of the lower extremities and irritability. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This thread may cause irritation of the urethra. This may be increased for patients who were born with Hypospadias or other conditions that required a similar corrective surgery. [en.wikipedia.org]

  Fecal transplant is used to treat gut infections and is now being studied as a treatment for obesity, urinary tract infections, irritable bowel syndrome and more. [nytimes.com]

  Younger children may present with irritability, behavioral changes or failure to thrive. Older children may complain of headache and lethargy. [indianpediatrics.net]

Based on its high accuracy reported in adults renal CT angiography (CTA) with pediatric-appropriate low radiation dose techniques has become an important tool in the workup of renovascular hypertension in children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hyponatremia

  They initially presented with severe hyponatremia, hypokalemia, polyuria, and transient proteinuria. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

After interventional treatment, medical treatment using antihypertensive drugs was necessary in 17 of the patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In children with severe hypertension, it may be necessary to initiate medical treatment before a definitive diagnosis is obtained. RVHT is often refractory to medical treatment. [emedicine.medscape.com]

With this background, we analyzed clinical and laboratory data and determined mark prognosis survival factors in multivariate analysis by comparing the survival curves by the log-rank test. [journals.lww.com]

Prognosis of individuals with renovascular hypertension is not easy to determine. Those with atherosclerotic renal artery disease have a high risk of mortality, furthermore those who also have renal dysfunction have a higher mortality risk. [en.wikipedia.org]

The importance of considering prenatal as well as postnatal etiologies of acquired renovascular hypertension in neonates is emphasized. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiologically, it is found mostly in female patients and is more prevalent in Asian and Latin American countries. Disease may be heterogeneous in presentation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology [ 3 ] The prevalence of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis is high - about 7% in individuals older than 65 years and about 50% in patients with diffuse arterial disease, and it is increasingly frequent in an ageing population. [patient.info]
