New Creatinine- and Cystatin C-Based Equations to Estimate GFR without Race.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR.

Conversion of Urine Protein–Creatinine Ratio or Urine Dipstick Protein to Urine Albumin–Creatinine Ratio for Use in Chronic Kidney Disease Screening and Prognosis

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Although measuring albuminuria is the preferred method for defining and staging chronic kidney disease (CKD), total urine protein or dipstick protein is often measured instead.

Prospective observational study of point-of-care creatinine in trauma. [PDF]

, 2016
Background:Patients with trauma are at risk for renal dysfunction from hypovolemia or urological injury. In austere environments, creatinine values are not available to guide resuscitation. A new portable device, the Stat Sensor Point-of-care (POC) Whole

Biophotonic sensor for the detection of creatinine concentration in blood serum based on 1D photonic crystal

RSC Advances, 2020
A new biophotonic sensor based on photonic crystal (PC) has been designed for the detection of creatinine concentration in blood, and is considered an important small molecule biomarker of renal dysfunction.

Prognostic value of preoperatively obtained clinical and laboratory data in predicting survival following orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1986
Twenty‐seven clinical and laboratory data and the subsequent clinical course of 93 consecutive adult patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for various chronic advanced liver diseases were analyzed retrospectively to assess the risk ...

Creatinine, diet, micronutrients, and arsenic methylation in West Bengal, India. [PDF]

, 2011
BackgroundIngested inorganic arsenic (InAs) is methylated to monomethylated (MMA) and dimethylated metabolites (DMA). Methylation may have an important role in arsenic toxicity, because the monomethylated trivalent metabolite [MMA(III)] is highly toxic ...

Risk factors for deterioration of renal function after coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

, 2010
Objective: Various definitions of impairment of renal function after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are used in the literature. Depending on the definition, several risk factors are identified.

Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin as a Marker for Identification of Acute Kidney Injury and Recovery in Dogs with Gentamicin-induced Nephrotoxicity. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with high mortality rates in dogs, which may be a consequence of late recognition using traditional diagnostic tests.

Estimating glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine and cystatin C.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2012
BACKGROUND Estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that are based on serum creatinine are routinely used; however, they are imprecise, potentially leading to the overdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease.
