Does renal resistive index early detect chronic tubulointerstitial nephropathy in normo- and hypertensive patients?
RRI measurement allows the early identification of both normotensive and hypertensive patients with chronic TIN and signs of tubular dysfunction, when renal function is still preserved.
Among AF patients with 1 NGR stroke risk factor (ie, CHA2DS2-VASc 1 in males or 2 in females), OAC use as indicated according to the guidelines was associated with a positive net clinical benefit for the prevention of stroke and thromboembolic events.
