Título Body burdens of lead in hypertensive nephropathy
Información bibliográfica Sep.-Oct. 1989, Vol.44, No.5, p.304-310. 62 ref.
Resumen Chronic human lead intoxication has long been associated with the development of renal failure. To determine the role of chelatable urinary lead, blood lead or the haematologic effect of lead in hypertensive nephropathy, a study was carried out on 40 subjects with hypertensive nephropathy and on 24 controls having a similar degree of renal dysfunction due to causes other than hypertension. The results show that subjects from the general population with hypertensive nephropathy do not have greater body burdens of lead than do renal failure controls without hypertension.
