Jaundice-associated acute kidney injury.
- Authors
Jie Song; Chang, Anthony
- Abstract
The article discusses research on the link between acute kidney injury and jaundice. It references a study by Anthony Chang of the University of Chicago Medical Center in Illinois, published in the September 11, 2008 issue of "NDT Plus." The researchers studied the case of a 32-week-gestation female with bilateral pleural effusion, generalized skin oedema and respiratory distress. She was treated with prostaglandin, surfactant and other supportive measures. They found that the recovery of renal function is possible if the jaundice is managed.
