Serum Uromodulin, a Potential Biomarker of Tubulointerstitial Damage, Correlates Well with Measured GFR and ERPF in Patients with Obstructive Nephropathy [PDF]
Background and Objectives: In chronic kidney obstruction, the severity of tubulointerstitial damage correlates best with the loss of kidney function and the risk for progression to end-stage kidney disease.

Functional assessment of renal damage in children with primary vesicoureteral reflux [PDF]
ObjectivesTo evaluate the renal function damage in children with primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR).MethodsA total of 226 children with VUR (65 cases with left, 39 with right, and 122 cases with bilateral VUR) were screened.

Rationale and study design of a randomized controlled trial to investigate the renoprotective effect of canagliflozin assessed by test of renal hemodynamics in diabetic kidney disease (the FAGOTTO study) [PDF]
Background Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are considered to have the potential to maintain renal function by correcting glomerular hypertension in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Significant negative association with age and both GFR and ERPF in male and female living kidney donors [PDF]
Sir, Berg reports that glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) were unrelated to age in 62 female potential kidney donors, whereas in 60 male potential donors, GFR and ERPF were lower in older subjects [1]. They conclude that effects of ageing on the kidney are gender-related.

The correlation between effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with renal scintigraphy99mTc-DTPA study [PDF]
The prevalence of chronic renal diseases in Indonesia has an increasing annual trend, because it is frequently unrecognized and often co-exists with other disease. GFR and ERPF are parameters currently utilized to estimate renal function at routine renal scintigraphy 99m-Tc DTPA study. This study used 99m-Tc DTPA to measure GFR and ERPF. The purpose of

The ERPF Theory and the UCEC Turbine: A New Paradigm for Ocean Energy Conversion
This article introduces the Energy Restoration by Planetary Fields (ERPF) theory, proposing a new paradigm for energy conversion in oceanic flows. Unlike classical models, which consider as available only the kinetic energy associated with the intercepted sectional area—bounded, for example, by the Betz limit—ERPF treats the ocean as an open, dynamic ...

Simultaneous evaluation total and selective of GFR and ERPF with Hypaque-131I and with Hippuran-125I
The Authors report their experience regarding the use of radioisotopes (Hypasults obtained in 40 healthy subjects confirm the reliability of the separate tests. Limitation and value of plasmatic and urinary clearances are briefly discussed. As the methods are simple, reproducible and unharmful for the patient, the Authors suggest an increasing ...
