Sodium phosphate and creatinine (500 µmoles each) were injected instantaneously into the renal artery of dogs anesthetized with Nembutal. Urine flows of 6–12 ml/min and serum phosphate levels of 3–6 mm/liter were maintained for 1 hr preceding instantaneous injection. Dogs were divided into two major groups, based on steady state conditions imposed: a) systemic acidosis induced by infusion of NaH2PO4 and b) systemic alkalosis induced by infusion of Na2HPO4 + NaHCO3. Then, either NaH2PO4 or Na2HPO4 was injected close-arterially, and the transient excretory response (covering 3–5 min) was studied. The parameter for measuring renal function was the incremental excretion of phosphate per unit injected per one circulation through the kidney. This was compared to the simultaneous and identical parameter for creatinine, considered as a glomerular substance. During systemic acidosis, net transient secretion of phosphate was observed in 73% of the periods after H2PO4– injection, and in 19% of the periods after HPO4– injection into renal artery. During systemic alkalosis with formation of alkaline urine, net secretion was observed in 15% of the periods after HPO4– injection, and in none of the periods after H2PO4– injection into the renal artery. When paradoxical aciduria occurred during systemic alkalosis, net transient secretion was observed in 30% of the periods after HPO4– injection. Data show that the transtubular movement of H2PO4– ion is different from that of HPO4– ion. The possibility of tubular secretion of H2PO4– ion, as a mechanism of urine acidification, is discussed.

Abstract Background It is little known about predictors of systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure or renal function (eGFR) improvement in patients with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) undergoing stent-assisted angioplasty (PTA). Therefore, we aimed to build a prediction scores that would indicate characteristics of patient subsets with ARAS most likely to have clinical improvement following PTA. Methods 201 patients who underwent PTA for ARAS (2003–2018) were categorized as eGFR or SBP/DBP responders based on eGFR increase of ≥11 ml/min/1.73m2, decrease of SBP ≥20mmHg and DBP ≥5mmHg at 12-months following PTA. The remaining patients were classified as non-responders. The performance of logistic regression models were evaluated by basic decision characteristics. Continuous data have been transformed into binary coding with help of operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Predictive models have been constructed for each followed by construction of predictive models in each of 3 categories. Results Logistic regression analysis showed that: baseline SBP>145 mmHg, DBP >82 mmHg, previous myocardial infarction and Renal-Aotric-Ratio >5.1 were independent influencing factors of SBP response, with relative risk percentage shares of 69.8%; 12.1%; 10.9%; and 7.2%, respectively (sensitivity: 82%, specificity: 86.3%, positive (PPV):82% and negative (NPV) predictive values: 86.3%). The DBP decrease prediction model included baseline SBP >145 mmHg and DBP >82 mmHg, the ARAS progression, index kidney length >106 mm, and bilateral PTA with respective shares of 35.0%; 21.8%; 18.2%; 13.3% and 11.8%. (sensitivity: 76%, specificity: 77.8%, PPV: 80.7% and NPV: 72.6%). The eGFR increase was associated with baseline serum creatinine >122 μmol/L but eGFR greater than 30 ml/min/1.73m2, index kidney length >98 mm, end-diastolic velocity in index renal artery, renal resistive index <0.74, and requirement for >3 BP medications, with respective shares of 24.4%; 24.4%; 21.2%; 15% and 15% (sensitivity: 33.3%, specificity: 93.5%, PPV: 65.6% and NPV: 78.9%). Conclusions Current study identified clinical characteristics of patients who most likely to respond to PTA for ARAS. The sutability of the score should be verified in a prospective cohort of patients referred to PTA of ARAS Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Purpose: To determine pretreatment variables that may predict 1-year clinical outcome of stent placement for renal artery stenosis. Methods: In a prospective study, 40 consecutive patients (29 men; mean age 60 ± 9.1 years) with angiographically proven atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis were treated with stent placement because of drug resistant hypertension (n=14), renal function impairment (n=14), or both (n=12). Clinical success at 1 year was defined as a decrease of diastolic blood pressure ≥10 mmHg or a decrease in serum creatinine ≥20%, depending on the indication for treatment. Regression analysis was performed using anatomical parameters from angiography and intravascular ultrasound, estimates of renal blood flow from renal scintigraphy, and single-kidney renal function measurements. Results: Patients treated for hypertension had better outcome than those treated for renal function impairment, with clinical success rates of 85% and 35%, respectively. Preserved renal function, with low serum creatinine and high 2-kidney glomerular filtration rate at baseline, was associated with clinical success in the entire patient group at follow-up (p=0.02 and p=0.03, respectively). An elevated vein-to-artery renin ratio on the affected side was borderline predictive (p=0.06). In patients treated for renal impairment, lateralization to the affected kidney (affected kidney—to–2-kidney count ratio ≤0.45) on the scintigram emerged as a significant predictor for clinical success, with an odds ratio of 15 (p=0.048). Conclusions: Clinical success of renal artery stent placement is better for the treatment of hypertension than for preserving renal function. In patients with renal function impairment, lateralization to the affected kidney on the scintigram appears to be a predictor of clinical success.
