Comparison of the Effects of Telbivudine and Entecavir Treatment on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B

open access: yesGut and Liver, 2015
Background/AimsThe aim of this study was to evaluate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) during telbivudine (LdT) versus entecavir (ETV) treatment in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with underlying comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus ...

Prediction of significant estimated glomerular filtration rate decline after renal unit removal to aid in the clinical choice between radical and partial nephrectomy in patients with a renal mass and normal renal function

open access: yesBJU International, 2019
To develop a clinically applicable predictive model to quantitate the risk of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline to ≤45 mL/min/1.73 m2 after radical nephrectomy (RN) to better inform decisions between RN and partial nephrectomy (PN).

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

open access: yes, 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).

Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Kidney Fibrosis In Vitro and In Vivo Models: Path Toward Physiologically Relevant Humanized Models

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 9, April 4, 2025.
This review discusses kidney diseases with a focus on kidney fibrosis and the models currently used. It highlights the limitations of animal and 2D in vitro models in replicating human kidney anatomy and physiology. Consequently, there is a significant need for humanized 3D in vitro models, such as 3D cell aggregates, membranes and hydrogels, on‐chip ...

Prediction of Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) after Thoracic Surgery: The Role of Estimated GFR [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introducton: Little is known about the prognostic utility of preoperative estimated GFR (eGFR) on perioperative Major Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) in apparently lower risk patients undergoing moderate risk surgeries like ...

The reduction of serum aminotransferase levels is proportional to the decline of the glomerular filtration rate in patients with chronic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVE: This study sought to determine the serum aminotransferase levels of patients with predialysis chronic kidney disease and establish their relationships with serum creatinine levels and glomerular filtration rate.

Capillary‐Driven 3D Open Fluidic Networks for Versatile Continuous Flow Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The capillary‐driven 3D open fluidic networks (OFNs), composed of connected polyhedral frames, enable precise, programmable, and versatile manipulation of unary, binary, and multiple continuous flows in both spatial and temporal dimensions. OFNs represent a significant leap beyond conventional microfluidics, unlocking new possibilities for selective ...

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate From a Panel of Filtration Markers-Hope for Increased Accuracy Beyond Measured Glomerular Filtration Rate?

open access: yesAdvances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2018
The recent Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes 2012 CKD guidelines recommend estimating GFR from serum creatinine (eGFRcr) as a first-line test to assess kidney function and using cystatin C or measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) as ...

Advances in glomerular filtration rate-estimating equations [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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
