Microalbuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate

open access: yesSouth African Family Practice, 2012
Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are the major causes of renal damage and cardiovascular events. The co-existence of these conditions further increases the risk of progressive renal disease, cardiovascular events, and mortality.

Assessment of glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) determination is the most frequently used laboratorial test to evaluate renal function. Indirect markers as blood determination of creatinine and cystatin C are used with this purpose, as well as the direct determination ...

Proenkephalin: A New Biomarker for Glomerular Filtration Rate and Acute Kidney Injury

open access: yesNephron, 2020
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 ...

Impact of Chronic Kidney Disease Severity on the Risk of Prurigo Nodularis: A Population-Based Cohort Study

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2022
While dialysis is linked with prurigo nodularis, little is known about the impact of non-dialysis chronic kidney disease on prurigo nodularis. The influence of chronic kidney disease on development of prurigo nodularis was measured using the Korean ...

Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2006
Low glomerular filtration rate predicts cardiovascular disease, end stage renal disease (a requirement for dialysis or transplantation), and death.1 In a population based study reported in this week's issue, Hallan and colleagues describe the yield of different screening strategies aimed at identifying people with low glomerular filtration rates.1 The ...

A novel nomogram to predict the reliability of estimated glomerular filtration rate formulae in oncology patients

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2020
Background Formulae of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum creatinine (Scr) are routinely used in oncology patients, however, they are inaccurate in some populations. Our aim was to assess the agreement of eGFR formulae and thereby
