Kidney remodeling in obese women during pregnancy

Abstract

The relevance of search for early markers of kidney damage is explained by the high incidence of urinary system diseases of various etiology in the structure of physical pathology of pregnant women and the proportion of complications, disability and mortality of mothers and their offspring. Despite a variety of articles on ultrasound diagnosis of kidney disease, there are no specific biometric criteria for kidney states in pregnant women with or without physical pathology; neither there is data on kidney remodeling during gestation in women with obesity.
