Association of renal cortical thickness and renal function in patients with malignant hypertension with thrombotic microangiopathy: a biopsy-based cohort study from China
Smaller RCTs were correlated with a decline in renal function and deterioration of renal pathology. Furthermore, larger RCTs showed a better renal function improvement of ≥15% increase in eGFR in mHTN patients with TMA. RCT may be a predictive factor for renal damage in mHTN.
