Application of upper estimates for products of inner radii to distortion theorems for univalent functions by I. V. Denega, Ya. V. Zabolotnyi

“…In the case of three or more points, many authors considered estimates of a more general Mobius invariant of the form $$ T_{n}:={\prod\limits_{k=1}^n r(B_{k},a_{k})}{\bigg(\prod\limits_{1\leqslant k<p\leqslant n} |a_{k}-a_{p}|\bigg)^{-\frac{2}{n-1}}}, $$ where $r(B,a)$ denotes the inner radius of the domain $B$ with respect to the point $a$ (for an infinitely distant point under the corresponding factor we understand the unit). …”

Changes in renal function and morphological variations of kidney diseases in rheumatoid arthritis patients by Yan Tang, Yuliya Varavko, Raisa Aringazina, Irina Menshikova

“…For studying the morphological changes in the kidneys under ultrasound examination, renal biopsy was performed in 31 patients with RA with urinary syndrome (proteinuria more than 0.3 g per day and hematuria). Results: Nephropathy in RA is characterized by impaired renal function and manifested by an increased blood creatinine and a decrease in glomerular filtration rate and renal functional reserve. …”
