Limited value of cystatin-C over estimated glomerular filtration rate for heart failure risk stratification. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundTo compare the prognostic value of estimated glomerular filtration rate, cystatin-C, an alternative renal biomarker, and their combination, in an outpatient population with heart failure.

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]

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2007
mL/min per 1.73 m 2 and 86.5 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 , respectively. The low precision of the MDRD Study equation, when GFR is normal, is also linked to the precision of the creatinine assay and to the biological variation of creatinine. This assertion is true for all creatinine-based equations.

Effect of Impaired Fasting Glucose on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue, 2023
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 ...

Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate at admission is associated with a worse outcome in older patients with hip fracture who undergo surgical treatment

Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra, 2023
Background. We assessed the relationship of estimated glomerular filtration rate values at hospital admission on the outcome of surgically treated older adults who had suffered a hip fracture. Methods.

A novel nomogram to predict the reliability of estimated glomerular filtration rate formulae in oncology patients

BMC Cancer, 2020
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

Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2020
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 ...

Critical analysis of the estimated glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology
Kidney function is primarily assessed through glomerular filtration rate (GFR), with serum creatinine being the most commonly used marker in clinical practice.
