Reduced cystatin C-estimated GFR and increased creatinine-estimated GFR in comparison with iohexol-estimated GFR in a hyperthyroid patient: A case report [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Estimation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for the evaluation of patients with kidney disease, and for treating patients with drugs that are eliminated from the circulation by the kidneys. Cystatin C has been shown to be

Novel serum biomarkers and their association with measured and estimated GFR decline in the general population [PDF]

, 2023
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an increasing health problem globally, now affecting 8-13% of the world’s population. The prevalence of CKD increases dramatically with age because kidney function, as assessed by the glomerular filtration rate (GFR ...

Assessment of GFR by four methods in adults in Ashanti, Ghana : the need for an eGFR equation for lean African populations [PDF]

, 2010
Background. Equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) have not been validated in Sub-Saharan African populations, and data on GFR are few. Methods.

The eGFR-C study: accuracy of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation using creatinine and cystatin C and albuminuria for monitoring disease progression in patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease - prospective longitudinal study in a multiethnic population [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Uncertainty exists regarding the optimal method to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for disease detection and monitoring. Widely used GFR estimates have not been validated in British ethnic minority populations.

GFR Estimation in Potential Living Kidney Donors: Race- and Nonrace-based Equations and Measured GFR [PDF]

, 2022
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE: Recent studies evaluated and proposed new race-neutral, creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation equations. The performance of these equations in diverse potential living kidney donors requires study.

Hip Fracture Risk According to Diabetic Kidney Disease Phenotype in a Korean Population [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022
Background Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is associated with an elevated risk of fractures. However, little is known about the association between proteinuric or non-proteinuric DKD and the risk of hip fracture.

Estimated glomerular filtration rate correlates poorly with four-hour creatinine clearance in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. [PDF]

, 2013
Introduction. RIFLE and AKIN provide a standardised classification of acute kidney injury (AKI), but their categorical rather than continuous nature restricts their use to a research tool. A more accurate real-time description of renal function in AKI is
