Deleterious Effects of Increased Intra-Abdominal Pressure on Kidney Function

Figure 7

Effects of 10 and 14 mmHg insufflations on (a) glomerular filtration rate (GFR), (b) percentage change in GFR from baseline, (c) renal plasma flow (RPF), and (d) percentage change in RPF from baseline, in rats with acute bile duct ligation (BDL) and sham controls. () versus baseline of each group; (#) versus sham controls. Effects of 10 and 14 mmHg insufflations on (e) glomerular filtration rate (GFR), (f) percentage change in GFR from baseline, (g) renal plasma flow (RPF), and (h) percentage change in RPF from baseline, in rats with cirrhosis and sham controls.
