Industry Reviews Reviews the research, mostly with animal models, into the factors affecting the progression of chronic renal failure, though the mechanism of such failure has not been clarified significantly since the 1986 first edition. Most of the chapters have been written by new authors, and include discussions of hemodynamic and cell-biology causes; the effects of variation in lipid levels, energy use, and protein intake; and the results of clinical trials from the US, Europe, and Japan.
