Urinary proteomics for prediction of mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and microalbuminuria [PDF]
, 2018 Background: The urinary proteomic classifier CKD273 has shown promise for prediction of progressive diabetic nephropathy (DN). Whether it is also a determinant of mortality and cardiovascular disease in patients with microalbuminuria (MA) is unknown.

Estimating Glomerular Filtration Rate in Older People [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2014 We aimed at reviewing age-related changes in kidney structure and function, methods for estimating kidney function, and impact of reduced kidney function on geriatric outcomes, as well as the reliability and applicability of equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in older patients.

Reduction of estimated glomerular filtration rate after COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury
Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2023 Introduction: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), a frequent manifestation in COVID-19, can compromise kidney function in the long term. We evaluated renal function after hospital discharge of patients who developed AKI associated with COVID-19. Methods: This is

Continued monitoring of acute kidney injury survivors might not be necessary in those regaining an estimated glomerular filtration rate > 60 mL/min at 1 year [PDF]
, 2017 Background. Severe acute kidney injury (AKI) among hospitalized patients often necessitates initiation of short-term dialysis. Little is known about the long-term outcome of those who recover to normal renal function.

Advances in glomerular filtration rate-estimating equations [PDF]
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2010 Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is now commonly reported by clinical laboratories. Here, we review the performance of current creatinine and cystatin C-based estimating equations as well as demonstration of their utility in public health and clinical practice.Lower levels of GFR are associated with multiple adverse outcomes, including acute

Novel Metabolites to Improve Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation
Kidney and Blood Pressure Research, 2023 <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis and therapy. Various studies have sought to recognize ideal endogenous markers to improve the estimated GFR for clinical practice.

Association between urinary sodium, creatinine, albumin, and long term survival in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
, 2014 Dietary sodium intake is associated with hypertension and cardiovascular risk in the general population. In patients with chronic kidney disease, sodium intake has been associated with progressive renal disease, but not independently of proteinuria.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate needs UK consensus [PDF]
BMJ, 2006 E DITOR—Chronic kidney disease imposes a substantial health burden, affecting 5% of the population. The renal national service framework recommends using the estimated glomerular filtration rate as a more sensitive marker for chronic kidney disease than serum creatinine.
