Estimated glomerular filtration rate correlates poorly with four-hour creatinine clearance in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. [PDF]

, 2013
Introduction. RIFLE and AKIN provide a standardised classification of acute kidney injury (AKI), but their categorical rather than continuous nature restricts their use to a research tool. A more accurate real-time description of renal function in AKI is

Correlation of serum uric acid with lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with normal creatinine level: Report from a tertiary care hospital in India

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2022
Background: Increased serum uric acid (SUA) level is considered a risk factor for kidney diseases in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Deranged lipid profile in T2DM is an overall risk factor for cardiovascular complications.

Influence of the background activity region selection on the measurement of glomerular filtration rate using the Gates method [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2008
Background/Aim. The most frequent method for the assessment of glomerular filtration rate GFR) in clinical practice is clearance of creatinine, clearance of chromium-51 radiolabelled ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (51Cr-EDTA) and clearance of ...

Estimated glomerular filtration rate and blood pressure in a sample of obese Egyptian adolescents

Journal of the Arab Society for Medical Research, 2022
Background/aim Obesity is a major risk factor for some comorbid conditions. Our goal was to study the relationship between obesity and kidney function in adolescents using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as well as to study blood pressure (BP)

Creatinine and Surveys: An Assessment [PDF]

cclm, 1995
We analysed the results of surveys on creatinine held in The Netherlands during the years 1992, 1993 and 1994. Assay results of 113 samples were reviewed: 88 human sera and 25 samples of animal origin. The results of 5 creatinine assays, 4 based on the Jaffé reaction and 1 enzymatic procedure, are discussed.

The eGFR-C study: accuracy of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation using creatinine and cystatin C and albuminuria for monitoring disease progression in patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease - prospective longitudinal study in a multiethnic population [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Uncertainty exists regarding the optimal method to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for disease detection and monitoring. Widely used GFR estimates have not been validated in British ethnic minority populations.

Estimation of reference intervals from small samples: an example using canine plasma creatinine [PDF]

, 2009
Background: According to international recommendations, reference intervals should be determined from at least 120 reference individuals, which often are impossible to achieve in veterinary clinical pathology, especially for wild animals.
