Reduced collagenolytic activity of rat kidneys with steptozotocin diabetes.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The introduction of automated biopsy devices and the localization of the kidney by ultrasound were aimed at optimizing efficacy and safety of the percutaneous renal biopsy procedure. We evaluated these technological advances in our renal biopsies performed in children. METHODS:We sequentially used the Silve...
