Estimating glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine and cystatin C.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2012 BACKGROUND Estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that are based on serum creatinine are routinely used; however, they are imprecise, potentially leading to the overdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease.

DIABETIC KIDNEY DISEASE: DEFINITION, DIAGNOSIS, DIFFERENT PROGRESSIVE STAGES, CLASSIFICATION
Revista de la Sociedad Argentina de Diabetes, 2018 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.

Genetic Disorders of the Glomerular Filtration Barrier.
American Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2020 The glomerular filtration barrier is a highly specialized capillary wall comprising fenestrated endothelial cells, podocytes, and an intervening basement membrane.

Update on the glomerular filtration barrier [PDF]
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2009 The nephrology community lacks a unified view of protein sieving through the glomerular capillary wall. The glomerular capillary wall consists of three distinct but closely interacting layers: the fenestrated endothelium, with its glycocalyx; the podocytes, with their interdigitated foot processes and slit diaphragms; and the intervening glomerular ...

Journal 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]
, 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.
