Hypertension and progression of renal disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is at high risk of relapse at any time, therefore patients require lifelong monitoring. The most appropriate way to monitor patients is not yet clear. Patients could be monitored for relapse by urine dipstick testing for haemoglobinuria based on the hypothesis that ...
