Reduction of estimated glomerular filtration rate after COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury

open access: yesBrazilian 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

Blood pressure and indices of glomerular filtration area in hypertensive and normotensive Prague rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The involvement of the kidney in the pathogenesis of hypertension has long been recognised, although the specific renal mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are still unknown.

Discordance Between Creatinine-Based and Cystatin C–Based Estimated GFR: Interpretation According to Performance Compared to Measured GFRPlain-Language Summary

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2023
Rationale & Objective: Use of cystatin C in addition to creatinine to estimate glomerular filtration rate (estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C [eGFRcys] and estimated glomerular filtration rate based on creatinine [eGFRcr ...

Measurement and Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Children [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2017
Rapid, accurate, and precise measures of kidney function are essential for daily management of patients. While plasma and urinary clearances provide the greatest accuracy for assessing glomerular filtration rate (GFR), these are often impractical particularly for the care of children.

Differential Associations of Cystatin C Versus Creatinine‐Based Kidney Function With Risks of Cardiovascular Event and Mortality Among South Asian Individuals in the UK Biobank

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background South Asian individuals have increased cardiovascular disease and mortality risks. Reliance on creatinine‐ rather than cystatin C–based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys) may underestimate the cardiovascular disease risk associated

Permselectivity of the glomerular wall examined with iron compound tracer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Rat kidney endothelial cell morphology was examined after introducing iron colloid particles of positive or negative charge to investigate the relationship between the electric charge and permeation through the glomerular capillary.

Incomplete reversibility of eGFR following tenofovir exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been linked to renal impairment but the extent to which this impairment is reversible is unclear. We aimed to investigate the reversibility of renal decline on TDF.Methods.

Polymorphisms in the heme oxygenase-1 and bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 1b genes and estimated glomerular filtration rate in Brazilian sickle cell anemia patients

open access: yesHematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy, 2021
Introduction: Mutations affecting genes involved in oxidative and signaling pathways may be associated with kidney disease in sickle cell anemia. We determined the allele and genotype frequencies of some polymorphisms in the promoter regions of the Heme ...

Persistent decline in estimated but not measured glomerular filtration rate on tenofovir may reflect tubular rather than glomerular toxicity

open access: yes, 2011
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been associated with proximal renal tubulopathy and reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), without accounting for the tubular secretion of ...
