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.

Comparing methods for glomerular filtration rate estimation [PDF]
Background: The glomerular filtration rate (GFR), estimated from serum creatinine (SCr), is widely used in clinical practice for kidney function assessment, but SCr-based equations are limited by non-GFR determinants and may introduce inaccuracies across

This cohort study assesses the association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated with vs without a coefficient for race and time to achievement of an eGFR less than 20 mL/min/1.73 m2.

The Rehberg–Tareev test in assessing the glomerular filtration rate
The history of glomerular filtration rate assessment is presented, an important step of which was the glomerular filtration rate evaluation by the endogenous creatinine clearance (known as the RehbergTareev test).

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.

Novel metabolites to improve glomerular filtration rate estimation
Introduction: The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis and therapy. Various studies have sought to recognize ideal endogenous markers to improve the estimated GFR (eGFR) for clinical practice.

Proenkephalin: A New Biomarker for Glomerular Filtration Rate and Acute Kidney Injury
Assessment of kidney function is primarily based on urine output and Creatinine (Cr)-based methods to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The latter is confounded as Cr is not exclusively filtered by the kidney and rises relatively late after the ...

Higher baseline glomerular filtration rate (GFR) may yield subsequent steeper GFR decline, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, this correlation in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the presence or absence of DM ...
