Towards automated identification of changes in laboratory measurement of renal function: implications for longitudinal research and observing trends in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
Introduction: Kidney function is reported using estimates of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, eGFR values are recorded without reference to the creatinine (SCr) assays used to derive them, and newer assays were introduced at different time points across laboratories in UK. These changes may cause systematic bias in eGFR reported in routinely

Assessment of the Nova StatSensor whole blood point-of-care creatinine analyser for the measurement of kidney function in screening for chronic kidney disease [PDF]

, 2010
Point-of-care testing for creatinine using a fingerprick sample and resultant estimated glomerular filtration rate has potential for screening for chronic kidney disease in community settings.

Evaluation of estimated glomerular filtration rate and clinical variables in systemic sclerosis patients [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: The most important renal complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc) is scleroderma renal crisis (SRC). Many patients demonstrate less severe renal complications, most likely associated with reduced renal blood flow and a consequent reduction in

Glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria for detection and staging of acute and chronic kidney disease in adults: a systematic review.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2015
IMPORTANCE Because early-stage kidney disease is asymptomatic and is associated with both morbidity and mortality, laboratory measurements are required for its detection.

Updated risk prediction model for pancreaticoduodenectomy using data from the National Clinical Database in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The calibration plots of the updated risk models for the endpoints were analyzed in each cohort. The predicted probability of each endpoint matched the observed probability in the development and validation cohorts. Abstract Aim Risk prediction models for mortality, severe postoperative complications, and postoperative pancreatic fistula in patients ...

Use of lipid‐lowering therapies in patients with chronic kidney disease and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: 2‐year results from Getting to an imprOved Understanding of Low‐Density lipoprotein cholesterol and dyslipidemia management (GOULD)

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1303-1310, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Per the 2018 American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology cholesterol guidelines, high‐risk ASCVD patients with CKD and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) levels ≥ $\ge $ 70 mg/dL should take a high‐intensity ...

Effect of Blood Pressure Control on Long-Term Risk of End-Stage Renal Disease and Death Among Subgroups of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease. [PDF]

, 2019
Background Our objective was to explore the effect of intensive blood pressure (BP) control on kidney and death outcomes among subgroups of patients with chronic kidney disease divided by baseline proteinuria, glomerular filtration rate, age, and body ...

Age-dependent reference intervals for estimated and measured glomerular filtration rate

Clinical Kidney Journal, 2017
Background Defining mean and reference intervals for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has been the subject of only a limited number of studies and review articles, with contradicting statements about the mean.

Prognostic impact of postoperative fixed‐point inflammation in patients with gastric cancer after curative gastrectomy: A validation cohort study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The cutoff value of CRP by sex for poor OS remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the cutoff values of CRP on postoperative day 3 to predict poor OS in men and women with gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy. The high‐CRP group has poorer overall survival than the low‐CRP group for gastric cancer after gastrectomy.

Prevalence, clinical characteristics, and predictors of sleep disordered breathing in hospitalized heart failure patients

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1311-1318, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Heart failure (HF) is often comorbid with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). This prospective study investigated the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and predictors of SDB in hospitalized HF patients. Methods Sleep studies were performed on hospitalized HF patients from January 2015 to February 2019.
