Abstract

Renovascular hypertension (RVH) can be caused by many different diseases, with the most common being fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and Takayasu arteritis (TA). A strikingly different diagnostic pattern is seen in children with RVH from different parts of the world. In Europe and North America, these children are mainly diagnosed as having FMD while in Asia and South Africa they will most often get a diagnosis of TA. When comparing the clinical diagnosis for FMD and TA, it becomes obvious that there is a great deal of overlap between the definitions of these two conditions. Different ways to come to the most accurate diagnosis using imaging of the blood vessel wall and positron emission tomography (PET) will be discussed. How an accurate diagnosis should influence the treatment of the children with these conditions will also be addressed.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 04 April 2019.
All research outputs
#6,245,826
of 22,664,644 outputs
Outputs from Pediatric Nephrology
#1,138
of 3,519 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#42,350
of 160,394 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Pediatric Nephrology
#11
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,664,644 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,519 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 160,394 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% of its contemporaries.
