Impact of estimated glomerular filtration rate on long-term clinical outcomes among Chinese patients with atrial fibrillation

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a widely accepted indicator of renal function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between eGFR and 3-year clinical outcomes among Chinese patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).

Long‐Term Opioids in Gout: A Matched Cohort Study From the Veterans Health Administration

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Though used frequently to treat flare, risk of long‐term opioid exposure in gout has not been well defined. In this study, we examined the hypothesis that people with gout are more likely than individuals without gout to be prescribed long‐term opioids over time.

Diabetic nephropathy: glomerular filtration rate and estimated creatinine clearance [PDF]

, 2007
OBJECTIVE: To assess in diabetic nephropathy, the accuracy of estimated creatinine clearance (calculated with the Cockroft Gault formula) and the clearance of the Tc99m-DTPA, to measure the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

Automatic Classification of Irregularly Sampled Time Series with Unequal Lengths: A Case Study on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate

, 2016
A patient's estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) can provide important information about disease progression and kidney function. Traditionally, an eGFR time series is interpreted by a human expert labelling it as stable or unstable.

Perceptions About Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia and Views About Urate‐Lowering Therapy in People With Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia. Methods Participants in a multinational study of

Prediction of decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate using liver fibrosis markers: a renal biopsy-based study

Scientific Reports, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common chronic liver disease and is associated with chronic kidney disease. The fibrosis-4 index and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease score are widely used as non-invasive diagnostic methods for non ...

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

Exploring Patients’ Profiles Associated With the Resolution of Acute Calcium Pyrophosphate Arthritis Treated With Colchicine and Prednisone: Post Hoc Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

The association of coronary artery calcium score with glomerular filtration rate and the influence of sex, age, blood pressure, and cholesterol

Medičnì Perspektivi, 2020
Chronic kidney disease puts an individual at a higher risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death. Coronary artery calcium score reflects the accumulation of calcium in the walls of the coronary arteries and a higher coronary artery calcium score is ...

Long-term renal outcome in methylmalonic acidemia in adolescents and adults

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the main long-term prognosis factors in methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), a rare disease of propionate catabolism.
