Bryan's Kidney Page
Hi! My name is Bryan and I'm 4 years old. I was born with kidney failure. No one really expected me to do so well, but I'm stubborn. You can ask my Mommy about that! I have been on peritoneal dialysis since I was a year old. I have to be hooked up to a machine every night.

Renal failure
Renal failure will publish manuscripts dealing with biochemical, clinical, or therapeutic aspects of uremia. The journal will, however, give particular emphasis to papers dealing with all aspects of acute renal failure - experimental models, pathophysiology, prevention and management, basic or clinical studies on renal function in the critically ill, and drug nephrotoxicity.
