This interesting volume presents research on all aspects of the circulation in native and artificial kidneys. For the first time, such a specific topic is reviewed by experimental physiologists, pharmacologists, intensive care physicians and nephrologists to reach a multidisciplinary approach to definitions, diagnostic measures and therapeutic interventions. In the first part of the book, physiologic and physiopathologic characteristics of renal circulation are analyzed, with particular attention to how they may affect the kidney's response to stress. Next, the role of systemic inflammation and cardiovascular physiologic adjustments is explored. The third part of this book is dedicated to an analysis of therapeutic interventions directed toward the manipulation of the renal vasculature and renal function in the clinical arena. Despite all of these measures, established renal failure requiring artificial and renal support eventually occurs in some patients. The practicalities, characteristics, indications and consequences of continuous renal displacement are discussed in great detail in the last part of this book, as are their implications for patient care. This volume is of the greatest use not only as a reference book for experienced specialists, but it is also invaluable as a textbook for specializing fellows or residents.
