Electrical stimulation of renal nerves for modulating urine glucose excretion in rats
Abstract Background The role of the kidney in glucose homeostasis has gained global interest. Kidneys are innervated by renal nerves, and renal denervation animal models have shown improved glucose regulation. We hypothesized that stimulation of renal nerves at kilohertz frequencies, which can block...
