Core Tip
Core Tip: Exercise is important for health maintenance and promotion. However, exercise-induced acute renal failure is a disease that athletes and doctors should be aware of. This paper makes a significant contribution to medical literature as it presents a study that investigated a not-widely-known type of exercise-induced acute renal failure known as Acute renal failure with severe Loin pain and Patchy renal ischemia after anaerobic Exercise (ALPE). Further, the study evaluated renal hypouricemia as a key risk factor of ALPE. The information in this paper can help clinicians make more accurate diagnosis, given that a significant proportion of patients with ALPE are undiagnosed. Further, this paper can increase awareness among athletes to help them prevent ALPE and reach their exercise goals.
