Characteristics of the kidneys.

*<p>The weight of the fixed tissue is given.</p>#<p>Per kidney. Comparing two control kidneys with one CSFK by multiplying the demonstrated number found in control kidney by 2 would yield a total glomerular number of 3,072,604+/−1,077,619 for controls and 2,301,441+/−330,670 for CSFKs (p = 0.10).</p

Correlation between number of glomeruli and cortex volume.

<p>A. Comparison between number of glomeruli and cortex volume per kidney of congenital solitary functioning kidneys (CSFKs, closed circles) and control kidneys (open circles) at 26 weeks of age with regression line for control kidneys (solid line, R = 0.697, P = 0.082). B. Comparison between number of glomeruli and cortex volume per pig at 26 weeks of age. Pigs with a CSFK are depicted by closed circles, and control pigs by open circles. Values for control pigs are extrapolated from one to two kidneys. Regression lines are shown for control kidneys (solid line, R = 0.697, P = 0.082) and for controls as CSFKs together (dotted line, R = 0.577, P = 0.31). C. Comparison between median number of glomeruli per mm³ in CSFKs and control kidneys. Median number of glomeruli per mm³ in CSFKs was 8.95 (range 6.39–10.42) and in control kidneys 11.46 (range 5.97–13.34).</p
