Metabolic and Microvascular Risk Factors Associated With Brain Health in Type 1 Diabetes
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examined relationships between metabolic factors, microvascular complications, and brain health in adults with type 1 diabetes. Fifty‐one adults were assessed for metabolic risk factors, microvascular complications, and cognitive function, with a subset completing brain MRI.

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and the Risk of Cancer [PDF]
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2019 Community-based reports regarding eGFR and the risk of cancer are conflicting. We here explore plausible links between kidney function and cancer incidence in a large Scandinavian population-based cohort.In the Stockholm Creatinine Measurements project, we quantified the associations of baseline eGFR with the incidence of cancer among 719,033 Swedes ...

Addressing Economic Insecurities Can Improve Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Lupus
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Economic insecurities, such as food, housing, transportation, and financial challenges, are modifiable risk factors and influence patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We examined the following: (1) associations between economic insecurities and PROs, and (2) the impact of screening and addressing economic ...

A New Equation to Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]
Annals of Internal Medicine, 2009 Equations to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are routinely used to assess kidney function. Current equations have limited precision and systematically underestimate measured GFR at higher values.To develop a new estimating equation for GFR: the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation.Cross-sectional analysis with ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Clinical response to mycophenolic acid (MPA) is highly heterogeneous; thus, therapeutic drug level monitoring (TDM) may help improve treatment efficacy. This systematic review and meta‐analysis examined therapeutic ranges for MPA levels associated with better outcomes and safety in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

The Relationship between Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and Diabetic Retinopathy
Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015 Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness in working-aged people. Several studies have suggested that glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was correlated with DR. This is a hospital-based study and the aim of it was to

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a cornerstone therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but the weight‐based dosing does not account for clinical factors that can introduce individual variability in drug metabolism and clearance. We leveraged longitudinal data from a prospective SLE cohort to identify clinical factors that predict ...

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
