thesis
posted on 2021-10-17, 01:54 authored by ZOE MELPOMENI MCARDLE
This thesis examines the benefits of an anti-hypertensive medication for a brief period early in life in a sheep model of a congenital solitary functioning kidney. It identifies that this type of treatment can delay the onset of kidney disease, and may be beneficial for patients born with one kidney.
