1.	Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) 03/01/1947 - "Renal extraction of p-aminohippurate in normal subjects and in essential hypertension and chronic diffuse glomerulonephritis." 05/09/1991 - "We compared renal hemodynamics, measured in terms of the clearance of para-aminohippuric acid and inulin, and the characteristics of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in three groups of normotensive subjects at different degrees of risk for hypertension: 41 subjects with two normotensive parents, 52 with one normotensive and one hypertensive parent, and 61 with two hypertensive parents. " 09/01/1997 - "To investigate changes in systemic and regional hemodynamics during the development of human hypertension, we simultaneously measured cardiac index (CI) by the indocyanine green (ICG) dye dilution method, hepatosplanchnic blood flow (HBF) by the ICG clearance method using a two-compartment model, and renal blood flow (RBF) by the p-aminohippurate clearance method in patients with borderline and essential hypertension. " 07/01/1982 - "To test these hypotheses, techniques for the clearance of inulin (Cin) and p-aminohippurate (Cpah) were used to assess renal function and hemodynamic measurements in patients with mild and moderate normal-renin and low-renin essential hypertension and in age-matched normotensive subjects. " 01/01/2002 - "Normotensive young men (25 +/- 2 years) with positive family history (PFH) (n = 28) and negative family history (NFH) (n = 60) of arterial hypertension were investigated to study aldosterone response, and systemic and renal haemodynamic changes (p-aminohippurate- and inulin-clearance) to Ang II infusion (0.5 and 3.0 ng/min per kg). "
2.	Body Weight (Weight, Body) 01/01/1978 - "Tubular secretory capacity has been investigated in the kidney of marine fishes Scorpaena porcus, Spicara smaris, frog Rana ridibunda and albino rat by determination of maximal transport of p-aminohippurate--TmPAH, Following values of Tmax expressed in mg/hour per 100 g of body weight were obtained: 0.73 +/- 0.17 for S. " 10/01/1988 - "A pressor response was observed in the latter at a dose of 10 pmol h-1 (100 g body weight)-1. 3. Pressor doses of vasopressin of 100 pmol h-1 (100 g body weight)-1 and less did not significantly alter the clearance of p-aminohippurate (PAH) in either conscious or anaesthetized rats. " 02/01/1988 - "Para-aminohippuric acid (PAHA, 0.1 mg/min/kg of body weight) was infused IV into 2 mares, followed by concurrent IV infusion of PAHA and probenecid (0.075, 0.15, 0.25, or 0.35 mg of probenecid/min/kg). " 03/01/2010 - "Barrows (n 6; aged 35 d; weight 8.6 kg), implanted with arterial, portal, mesenteric and gastric catheters, were fed a diet containing dl-methionine (dl-MET) or dl-HMTB once hourly and infused intramesenterically with 1 % p-aminohippurate and intragastrically with [1-13C]methionine at 7.0 mumol/kg body weight per h. " 01/01/1984 - "Sham-operated (SO) rats cleared inulin and p-aminohippurate (PAH) at rates of 3.84 and 7.49 ml/min, respectively, while compensated PN rats cleared inulin at 2.51 and PAH at 8.84 ml/min. Daily administration of low levels of OA produced decreased urine osmolality and body weight with a modest increase in urinary protein of PN versus SO rats. "
3.	Bacteremia 07/01/1995 - "The current study used laser Doppler fluximetry and clearance of p-aminohippuric acid (effective renal plasma flow, ERPF) to study intrarenal distribution of blood flow during basal conditions and during normodynamic Escherichia coli bacteremia, with and without inhibition of nitric oxide. "
4.	Cicatrix (Scar) 12/01/1996 - "This study was performed to determine the incidence of increased albumin excretion in children with mild to moderate pyelonephritic scarring, and to relate the information to glomerular filtration rate (GFR; clearance of inulin) and effective renal plasma flow (clearance of para-aminohippuric acid), as well as to the degree of scarring. "
5.	Necrosis 10/01/1999 - "This was accompanied by a marked decrease in inulin and para-aminohippuric acid clearance, as well as by a marked tubular necrosis, without alterations in glomerular structures. " 07/01/1991 - "However, cyclosporin administration resulted in no change in p-aminohippurate clearance nor was there any evidence of tubular necrosis or vascular damage. " 12/01/1989 - "Glucose reabsorption under basal and glucose loading conditions, and extraction of p-aminohippurate, used as indices of proximal tubule integrity, were normal in control and experimental kidneys 48 h after cortical necrosis. " 04/01/1985 - "Acute tubular necrosis, associated with depression of CIN and renal cortical p-aminohippurate and N-methylnicotinamide uptake, developed in all three groups. " 11/01/1983 - "The delay between the first evidence of renal damage (decreased p-aminohippuric acid uptake) and the subsequent appearance of enzymuria, proteinuria, polyuria and alkalinuria appears to correspond to a similar delay between the initial insult and the eventual development of cellular necrosis and other histopathological changes.
