Single-Nephron Glomerular Filtration Rate in Healthy Adults

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2017
BACKGROUND The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) assesses the function of all nephrons, and the single‐nephron GFR assesses the function of individual nephrons.

Hyperuricemia and Impaired Renal Function: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesKidney Diseases, 2020
Background: Related studies have demonstrated a relationship of elevated serum uric levels with a decline in kidney function. However, limited evidence exists in a Southeast Asian community-based population.

Comparison of Creatinine, Cystatin C and Combined Creatinine-Cystatin C for Renal Function Assessment in Patients with Diabetes

open access: yesPakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, 2022
Objective: To compare the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) assessed through the CKD-EPI equations based on creatinine, Cystatin C and creatinine-Cystatin C levels for estimating kidney function among patients with diabetes.

Renal function: Estimation of glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2007
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is widely accepted as the best overall measure of kidney function. American National Kidney Foundation guidelines define chronic kidney disease (CKD) by either a GFR of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or the presence of ...

Measurement and Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Children

open access: yesAdvances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2017
Rapid, accurate, and precise measures of kidney function are essential for the daily management of patients. While plasma and urinary clearances provide the greatest accuracy for assessing glomerular filtration rate (GFR), they are often impractical ...

Abemaciclib inhibits renal tubular secretion without changing glomerular filtration rate

open access: yesClinical pharmacology and therapy, 2018
Abemaciclib, an inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinases 4 and 6, is indicated for metastatic breast cancer treatment. Reversible increases in serum creatinine levels of ~15–40% over baseline have been observed following abemaciclib dosing.

The intrinsic circadian clock in podocytes controls glomerular filtration rate

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR), or the rate of primary urine formation, is the key indicator of renal function. Studies have demonstrated that GFR exhibits significant circadian rhythmicity and, that these rhythms are disrupted in a number of ...

Evaluation of Biomarker-Based Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimating Equations in Glomerular Disease

open access: yesGlomerular Diseases
Introduction: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is typically estimated with equations that use biomarkers such as serum creatinine and/or cystatin-C. The impact of these different biomarkers on GFR estimates in glomerular disease patients is unclear.
