Association of estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: a collaborative meta-analysis of general population cohorts

The Lancet, 2010
Background A comprehensive evaluation of the independent and combined associations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with mortality is required for assessment of the impact of kidney function on risk in the general population,

COMPARING DIALYSIS PATIENTS ACCORDING TO ESTIMATED GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE AT DIALYSIS INITIATION AND FIVE YEARS OUTCOME

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018
Background: It is not clear on which level of estimated glomerular filtration rate to start dialysis until now. Objective: To compare between patient groups according to estimated glomerular filtration rate at dialysis initiation.

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

Nephron, 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 ...

Novel metabolites to improve glomerular filtration rate estimation

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2023
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.

Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate With vs Without Including Patient Race.

JAMA Internal Medicine, 2020
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.

Glomerular filtration rate abnormalities in sickle cell disease

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
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.

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

BMC 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

Glomerular filtration rate by differing measures, albuminuria and prediction of cardiovascular disease, mortality and end-stage kidney disease

Nature Medicine, 2019
Chronic kidney disease is common in the general population and associated with excess cardiovascular disease (CVD), but kidney function does not feature in current CVD risk-prediction models.

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

Acta 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 ...

Adiposity and risk of decline in glomerular filtration rate: meta-analysis of individual participant data in a global consortium

British medical journal, 2019
Objective To evaluate the associations between adiposity measures (body mass index, waist circumference, and waist-to-height ratio) with decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and with all cause mortality.
