Chronic antioxidants may outperform acute agents for renal hemodynamics in experimental RVD; leaves open translation to human trials.
Does chronic antioxidant intervention improve renal hemodynamics and function more effectively than acute intervention in experimental renovascular disease?
Chronic antioxidant intervention with vitamins C and E improved renal hemodynamic responses more effectively than acute intervention with tempol in a pig model of renovascular disease, likely by decreasing structural injury and increasing nitric oxide bioavailability.
