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.

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

Glomerular filtration rate abnormalities in sickle cell disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of inherited blood disorders affecting the β-globin gene, resulting in the polymerization of hemoglobin and subsequent sickling of the red blood cell.

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 ...

Obesity and glomerular filtration rate
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).

Post-kidney donation glomerular filtration rate measurement and estimation
Background: Long-term consequences associated with kidney donation are controversial. Pre- and post-donation glomerular filtration rates (GFRs) are determinants of renal and cardiovascular risk weighting.
