Popis: Background We examined whether renal resistive index (RI), a simple index of renal vascular resistance, is associated with the presence and severity of anemia, and can predict the future development of anemia in patients with hypertension. Methods We retrospectively examined 175 patients with hypertension (mean age 67 ± 11 years, 32-85 years, 134 males) who underwent renal ultrasonography. Anemia was defined as a reduction in the concentration of hemoglobin
