Renal Failure
The primary focus of Renal Failure is acute kidney injury (AKI). This includes the basic sciences and those derived from human studies on the subject. There is a critical need to support the drive for research in this field. The high mortality of AKI in the critically ill is unacceptable. The journal aims to publish methods that have demonstrated improved outcomes of AKI in the critically ill and related research.
International Journal of Nephrology and Renovascular Disease
International Journal of Nephrology and Renovascular Disease is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal focusing on the pathophysiology of the kidney and vascular supply. Epidemiology, screening, diagnosis, and treatment interventions are covered as well as basic science, biochemical and immunological studies.
