Glomerular Filtration Rate Assessment in Children

open access: yesChildren, 2022
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]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Science
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

Critical analysis of the estimated glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Nephrology
Kidney function is primarily assessed through glomerular filtration rate (GFR), with serum creatinine being the most commonly used marker in clinical practice.

Iohexol plasma clearance for measuring glomerular filtration rate in clinical practice and research: a review. Part 1: How to measure glomerular filtration rate with iohexol?

open access: yesCKJ: Clinical Kidney Journal, 2016
While there is general agreement on the necessity to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in many clinical situations, there is less agreement on the best method to achieve this purpose.

Obesity and glomerular filtration rate

open access: yesInternational Urology and Nephrology, 2023
Obesity has received considerable attention in general medicine and nephrology over the last few years. This condition increases the risk of metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which are the main risk factors for developing chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Glomerular Filtration Rates in Asians [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2018
The National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative guidelines recommended the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for the classification of CKD, but its accuracy was limited to North American patients with estimated GFR

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate, Albuminuria, and Adverse Outcomes: An Individual-Participant Data Meta-Analysis.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2023
Importance Chronic kidney disease (low estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] or albuminuria) affects approximately 14% of adults in the US. Objective To evaluate associations of lower eGFR based on creatinine alone, lower eGFR based on creatinine

Association of the Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate With vs Without a Coefficient for Race With Time to Eligibility for Kidney Transplant

open access: yesJAMA Network Open, 2021
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.

Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate at admission is associated with a worse outcome in older patients with hip fracture who undergo surgical treatment

open access: yesAnales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra, 2023
Background. We assessed the relationship of estimated glomerular filtration rate values at hospital admission on the outcome of surgically treated older adults who had suffered a hip fracture. Methods.

Estimating glomerular filtration rate in African populations

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Nephrology, 2023
Without a strong bedrock of kidney research in African populations we are vulnerable to extrapolating research findings performed in non-African ancestry populations, mostly in high-income countries, with short- and long-term implications for individual ...
