Analysis of clinical risk factors in patients with renal artery stenosis
AIM: To analyze the risk factors of patients with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) and to explore their correlation with renal functions. METHODS: The renal angiog-raphy and renal function of 38 ARAS patients were measured and compared with those of 30 healthy controls. RESULTS: Com-pared with those of healthy controls, the prevalence rotes of coro-nary artery disease, multiple vessel lesions, diabetes, and renal dysfunction increased significantly(P<0.05), and the age, sys-tolic blood pressure(SBP), levels of blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and serum creatinine(SCr) were significantly higher(P<0.05) in ARAS patients. CONCLUSION: Senility, coronary artery diseases, multiple vessel lesions, high SBP, diabetes and renal dysfunction are risk factors for ARAS. Severe renal artery stenosis may lead to renal dysfunction.
