Renin-angiotensin system antagonists, glomerular filtration rate and blood pressure
The article deals with the mModern data on the influence of renin-angiotensin system blockers on the glomerular filtration rate, the level of arterial pressure and the outcome of chronic kidney disease.

Renal Hyperfiltration and the Development of Microalbuminuria in Type 1 Diabetes [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine prospectively whether renal hyperfiltration is associated with the development of microalbuminuria in patients with type 1 diabetes, after taking into account known risk factors.

Glomerular filtration in single nephrons
In recent years as many investigators have turned their attention to the study of tubular transport processes in individual nephrons, it has become increasingly important to measure and to understand the factors that determine the filtration rate of single nephrons (SNGFR).More frequent measurements of SNGFR have yielded a great deal of new information

Impairment in Glomerular Filtration Rate or Glomerular Filtration Barrier and Occurrence of Stroke [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with substantial burden and is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, data on the relationship between CKD and stroke are few and are limited by unreliable or inadequate assessment of renal function.To properly assess the relationship between renal insufficiency and stroke in stroke ...

Effect of sex on glomerular filtration rate in programmed rats by prenatal dexamethasone
We have previously demonstrated that dexamethasone administered to pregnant rats during specific times during gestation results in a reduction in glomerular number and hypertension in offspring at 2 and 6 months of age.

Abemaciclib Inhibits Renal Tubular Secretion Without Changing Glomerular Filtration Rate
Abemaciclib, an inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinases 4 and 6, is indicated for metastatic breast cancer treatment. Reversible increases in serum creatinine levels of ~15–40% over baseline have been observed following abemaciclib dosing.
