Longitudinal Trajectories of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in a European Population of Living Kidney Donors [PDF]
A living donor (LD) kidney transplant is the best treatment for kidney failure, but LDs safety is paramount. We sought to evaluate our LDs cohort’s longitudinal changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate relates to cognitive impairment and brain alterations [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with cognitive decline and changes in brain structure. However, their associations remain unclear, particularly the selective vulnerability characteristics that make some brain regions more ...

Effect of Impaired Fasting Glucose on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]
Background Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a quantitative indicator assessing the severity of chronic kidney disease. Studies have shown that elevated glucose in prediabetic period increases the risk of chronic kidney disease, but its ...

The estimated glomerular filtration rate predicts pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy
Clinical predictors for pacemaker-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) (e.g., a wide QRS duration and left bundle branch block at baseline) have been reported.

Background Formulae of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum creatinine (Scr) are routinely used in oncology patients, however, they are inaccurate in some populations. Our aim was to assess the agreement of eGFR formulae and thereby

Estimated glomerular filtration rate in patients overdosed with gentamicin
The aim of this study was to compare the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from serum creatinine (eGFRcrea) and cystatin C (eGFRcys) in patients with elevated serum trough levels of gentamicin before the next planned dose during treatment in ...

Microalbuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate
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.
