One of the most important criteria for the degree of kidney damage and identify hidden violations of glomerular filtration is the determination of renal functional reserve (RFR). The aim of our study was to examine the state of the RFR and its course characteristics in patients with AIDS. The study of renal function after the water-salt load in 10 AIDS patients and 10 patients without AIDS (group of comparison). Studies have demonstrated significant diagnostic capabilities of RFR definition. The carried out analysis indicate the degree of damage, both renal in general and, particularly, for each of nephrons. Timely diagnosis and treatment of renal disease in patients with AIDS is an essential element of their tactics of management and prevention of chronic kidney disease.
