Prediction of decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate using liver fibrosis markers: a renal biopsy-based study

Scientific Reports, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common chronic liver disease and is associated with chronic kidney disease. The fibrosis-4 index and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease score are widely used as non-invasive diagnostic methods for non ...

Changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate after percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients with stage 2–4 chronic kidney disease [PDF]

Urology Annals
Background and Objective: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard technique used for the treatment of large renal stones ≥ 2 cm. However, in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), the effect of PCNL remains underreported.

Microalbuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate

South African Family Practice, 2012
Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are the major causes of renal damage and cardiovascular events. The co-existence of these conditions further increases the risk of progressive renal disease, cardiovascular events, and mortality.

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]

Definitions, 2020
A laboratory test that estimates kidney function. It is calculated using an individual's serum creatinine measurement, age, gender, and race. Actual results are reported when the estimated glomerular filtration rate is less than 60 ml/min.

Effect of dapagliflozin on proteinuria and the slope of the estimated glomerular filtration rate in patients with immunoglobulin A nephropathy: A multicenter prospective study [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research
Objective The sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor dapagliflozin reduces proteinuria and slows the decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Disease Progression Modeling of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): A Pharmacometrics Approach [PDF]

Journal of Diabetes
Background Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a key clinical marker for assessing kidney complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to develop and validate a disease progression model of eGFR in Malaysian T2DM patients,
