A Numerical Investigation of Urine Flow Rate Effects on Stag Horn
... On analysis of the effect of urine flow rate on the shear rate in different localities, it is observed a significant relation of these two values, which increasing the flow rate will enhance the shear rate and decrease the risk of stone formation. Increasing the urine flow rate is performed with spe ...

Kidney transplantation
Kidney transplantation or renal transplantation is the organ transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage renal disease. Kidney transplantation is typically classified as deceased-donor (formerly known as cadaveric) or living-donor transplantation depending on the source of the donor organ. Living-donor renal transplants are further characterized as genetically related (living-related) or non-related (living-unrelated) transplants, depending on whether a biological relationship exists between the donor and recipient. Exchanges and chains are a novel approach to expand the living donor pool.
