Background And Objectives: With the advent of fetal screening ultrasonography, the detection of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) in utero has permitted early management of these conditions. This study aims to describe the clinical course of a large cohort of patients with prenatally detected nephrouropathies.
Design, Setting, Participants, & Measurements: In this retrospective cohort study, 822 patients were prenatally diagnosed with CAKUT and systematically followed up at a tertiary Renal Unit for a median time of 43 months.
Background: Systematic assessments of the scientific production can optimize resource allocation and increase research productivity in Brazil.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the profile and scientific production of researchers in the field of Cardiology who have fellowship in Medicine provided by the Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico.
Methods: The curriculum Lattes of 33 researchers with active fellowships from 2006 to 2008 were included in the analysis.
