Salako B.L.The effect of blood pressure control on urinary protein excretion in   Nigerians with benign essential hypertension.  Submitted to the West Africa Postgraduate Medical College in part fulfillment of the requirement for the award of Fellowship in Internal Medicine.   

Books already published

Salako B.L .(2007) Kidney and kidney diseases for Laypersons. This is a 110 page book. It is a product of my experience as a nephrologist arising from the observation of obvious inability of most subjects to pay for dialysis and transplantation. It is an attempt to encourage preventive nephrology among the populace.
