Opis

We are pleased to present to our readers the proeeedings of the Seeond Bari Seminars in Nephrology. The topie of theses proeeedings deals with elinieal and experimental aspeets of aeute renal failure. The Bari Seminars in Nephrology were initiated in 1984 and will be held every two years. It is attended by a large number of international elinieal seientists in the diseiplines of nephrology and related fields. The next Bari Seminars in Nephrology will take plaee dur i n g Ap r i 1 2 0 - 2 4 i n 1 988 'a n d t he t he m e 0 f t he ga t her i n g w i 1 1 be Drugs, Systemie Diseases and the Kidney. \e are indebted for the generous finaneial support of the Centro Nazionale delle Rieherehe, Italy.
