Roles of lipid mediators in kidney injury.

abstract：:Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is a new disease whose incidence has peaked and receded over the past decade. It occurs in the presence of significant renal impairment, either acute or chronic (MDRD creatinine clearance of <30 mL/min/1.73 m(2)), and is associated with the administration of gadolinium-based contrast (GBC...
