Objectives: The present study was undergone to determine whether Glycyrrhizae Radix pharmacopuncture intravenous injection exerts beneficial effect against the ischemia-induced acute renal failure in rabbits. Methods: Rabbits were treated with Glycyrrhizae Radix pharmacopuncture via i.v., followed by renal ischemia/reperfusion. The fractional excretion of glucose and phosphate were measured and the malondialdehyde content was also determined. The morphological changes of cortical part of kidney also observed with light microscope. Results: Renal ischemia/reperfusion caused increase of the fractional excretion of glucose and phosphate in ischemia-induced animals, which was prevented by Radix Glycyrrhizae extract treatment. Ischemia/reperfusion increased lipid peroxidation, which was prevented and morphological changes also altered by Radix Glycyrrhizae pharmacopuncture administration. Conclusions: These results indicate that lipid peroxidation plays a critical role in ischemia-induced acute renal failure and Glycyrrhizae Radix pharmacopuncture exerts the protective effect against acute renal failure induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion.

Objective: The primary objective this study was to evaluate the effect of Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment on against the glycerol-induced acute renal failure in rats. Methods: Glycerol injection decreased GFR (glomerular filtration rate) and increased urine volume, serum creatinine, BUN level, urine albumine secretion and fractional excretion of Na+, K+. PJS was selected in the basis of invigorating kidney which can eliminate pathogens. Rats were treated with PJS pharmacopuncture on Shin-shu (BL23) and Chon-chu (ST25) point for 3 days, followed by 50% concentration of glycerol injection ($5m{\ell}/kg$ body weight). Results: After the 3 days treatment period, Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment improved renal function. In addition, Glycerol injection increased lipid peroxidation, and decreased Na-K-ATPase in renal cortex and which were prevented by PJS treatment. Conclusion: This study suggests that Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment show favorable effect on glycerol-induced acute renal failure in rats.

In Oriental Medical theory, origin of kidney's weakness or atrophy is shen qi(腎氣) and function of san jiao(三焦) deteriorate, it result in a passage of evacuation is blocked. - In Oriental Medicine, Shen(腎) take charge of storing and evacuating function, by taking qi(氣) of the five viscera and the six bowels. - The cause of reducing of shen qi and san jiao's evacuative function is xu han(Emptiness and Coldness) of the five viscera and the six bowels' activity. So we do not treat only kidney, but we also must focus the five viscera and the six bowels' organic function and ying wei's function. A Renal Failure is similar in symptom to Kwan-kyuk(關格), oliguria or anuria, edema, Hu-son(虛損), Sin-pung(腎風) and Yuk-kuk(六極) in chenxiang(沈香). We grasp symptom of 7 cases of chronic renal failure, and diagnose its pathology based on Sa-jin(四診), and prescribed herbal medicines. And in the point of the chenxiang, we separate two group, Ater one is taken herbal medicine with chenxiang and the other is only taken herbal medicine with no using chenxiang, we compared the rate of treating with only herbal and herbal compounded chenxiang. We repeat medical examination for continuation of effective result, report clinical progress and result which based on this examination.

Objective : The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion at SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) on uranyl acetate-induced acute renal failure in rats. Methods : To induce experimental acute renal failure, uranyl acetate was intraperitoneally injected to rats by 5mg/kg. 3 days later acupuncture and moxibustion treatment was done at SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) bilaterally of the rats. And then 4 days later, we measured rats' body weight, kidney weight, serum BUN, creatinine and serum eletrolyte levels(Na, K and Cl). Results : In the moxibustion group, hypertrophy index of kidney and serum BUN level were decreased marginally significantly, and serum creatinine, K levels were decreased significantly. But in the acupuncture group, there was no significance at this experiment. Conclusions : SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) moxibustion can decrease serum BUN, creatinine, and serum eletrolyte levels on uranyl acetate-induced acute renal failure in rats. And the study will be done continuously about non-effect in the acupuncture group at this experiment.

Objective: To report the effects of Siryeng-tang (柴苓湯) and Chijasi-tang (梔子豉湯) on a patient with drug-induced acute renal failure. Methods: A female patient was diagnosed with acute renal failure. The symptoms decreased urine output, tachycardia, dyspnea, and chest discomfort. The patient was treated with Siryeng-tang for one day and Chijasi-tang for about 5 days. Results: After taking Siryeng-tang, urine output increased and the values for blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were decreased to normal. Taking Chijasi-tang improved other related symptoms. Conclusions: Siryeng-tang and Chijasi-tang can improve the symptoms of acute renal failure.

The pharmacokinetics of carbamazepine(100 mg/kg, oral) in the folic acid-induced renal failure rabbits was studied. Renal failure was induced by the i.v. injection of folic acid (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg). At folic acid dose of 100 and 200 mg/kg, the serum creatinine concentration (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) increased significantly compared with control rabbits. Plasma concentrations and area under the plasma level-time curve (AUC) of carbamazepine increased significantly at folic acid dose of 100 and 200 mg/kg. The elimination rate constant (Kel) of carbamazepine decreased significantly, and half-life $(t_{1/2})$ of carbamazepine increased significantly at folic acid dose of 100 and 200 mg/kg. The serum creatinine concentration (Scr) correlated well with AUC and elimination rate constant (Kel) of carbamazepine, as well as BUN with AUC and elimination rate constant (Kel) of carbamazepine. These results suggest that adjustment of the dosage regimen of carbamazepine is desirable, and serum creatinine concentration (Scr) as well as BUN can be used for adjusting the dosage regimen of carbamazepine in renal failure.

The leading cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure is cardiovascular diseases. The problems relevant to cardiac surgery in these patients are occurring more frequently with a growing number of patients at risk. Among these, important risk factors related to uremic patients undergone open heart surgery are fluid and electrolytes imbalance, coagulopathy, increased susceptibility to infection. Since 1968 when Lansing and colleagues reported the first successful aortic valve replacement in patients with chronic renal failure and infective endocarditis, there have been increasing reports of the cardiopulmonary bypass surgery in chronic renal failure patients with acceptable perioperative morbidity and mortality From Jan. 1988 to Nov. 1989 we have experienced four uremic patients necessitating open heart surgery ; one needing a coronary artery bypass graft and the other 3 needed cardiac valve replacement. Based on our observations we would like to suggest followings 1]Intraoperative ultrahemofiltration during C-P bypass thought to be an excellent means for the control of hyperkalemia and fluid balance. 2] The immediate postoperative application of peritoneal dialysis instead of hemodialysis is beneficial in controlling fluid and electrolyte imbalance. 3]The cause of one early postoperative death was not associated to renal failure, rather it was the result of an accidental rupture in the right ventricular wall.

A 9-month-old, intact female mixed dog was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Gyeongsang National University with symmetrically enlarged and protruded upper jaw. The patient was diagnosed as acute renal failure due to ethylene glycol poisoning and was treated for 1 month in a local animal hospital. In spite of treatment, the patient proceeded to chronic renal failure. Also, the patient's upper jaw begun to enlarge continuously. To evaluate this upper jaw, radiographic examination was performed. Skull radiographs revealed thickening of maxilla, decreased bone opacity, cortical thinning, loss of lamina dura and periodontal space in the maxilla. Diagnosis of rubber jaw syndrome is based on clinicial signs, radiographic findings and laboratory evidence of chronic renal failure due to ethylene glycol poisoning.

Serum lipid peroxide levels in 25 chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis were examined by determining TBA reaction with spectrofluorometry. The lipid peroxide levels, 208.9$\pm$88.4nmol/ml, in the patient group was significantly higher than 152.4$\pm$43.9nmol/ml of 48 control healthy subjects. It is likely that the elevated serum lipid peroxide levels can play a role in increasing tendency of hemorrhage and incidence of atherosclerosis in chronic renal failure patients.
