Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate With vs Without Including Patient Race.
This cross-sectional study evaluates the use of race in estimating glomerular filtration rate and whether height and weight could substitute for race using pooled data from 10 studies of people with and without chronic kidney disease.

The Glomerular Endothelium Restricts Albumin Filtration
Inflammatory activation and/or dysfunction of the glomerular endothelium triggers proteinuria in many systemic and localized vascular disorders. Among them are the thrombotic microangiopathies, many forms of glomerulonephritis, and acute inflammatory ...

DIABETIC KIDNEY DISEASE: DEFINITION, DIAGNOSIS, DIFFERENT PROGRESSIVE STAGES, CLASSIFICATION
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is classified according to the cause, the stage of glomerular filtration and albuminuria. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) according to the classification of glomerular filtration (GF) and the quantification of albuminuria.

Glomerular Filtration Rate Assessment in Children
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measurement is a key tool for determining the degree of chronic kidney disease. The assessment of GFR is even more challenging in children than in adults with more variables in the equation than race and sex.

Use of Estimating Equations for Dosing Antimicrobials in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury Not Receiving Renal Replacement Therapy. [PDF]
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can potentially lead to the accumulation of antimicrobial drugs with significant renal clearance. Drug dosing adjustments are commonly made using the Cockcroft-Gault estimate of creatinine clearance (CLcr). The Modified Jelliffe
