Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation Formulas for Pediatric and Neonatal Use.

The Journal of Pediatric Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2018
Renal function assessment is of the utmost importance in predicting drug clearance and in ensuring safe and effective drug therapy in neonates. The challenges to making this prediction relate not only to the extreme vulnerability and rapid maturation of ...

Impairment in Glomerular Filtration Rate or Glomerular Filtration Barrier and Occurrence of Stroke [PDF]

Archives of Neurology, 2008
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with substantial burden and is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, data on the relationship between CKD and stroke are few and are limited by unreliable or inadequate assessment of renal function.To properly assess the relationship between renal insufficiency and stroke in stroke ...

New Model for Estimating Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients With Cancer

Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2017
Purpose The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for carboplatin chemotherapy dosing; however, the best method to estimate GFR in patients with cancer is unknown. We identify the most accurate and least biased method. Methods We obtained data on

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.

Serum cystatin C in estimating glomerular filtration rate [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2008
Using serum cystatin C in estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has in recent times been recommended. A number of simple formulas for calculating GFR have been derived specifically from serum cystatin C concentrations. The purpose of this study was

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and the Risk of Cancer.

American Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2019
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Community-based reports regarding eGFR and the risk of cancer are conflicting. We here explore plausible links between kidney function and cancer incidence in a large Scandinavian population-based cohort.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Derived Renal Oxygenation and Perfusion During Continuous, Steady‐State Angiotensin‐II Infusion in Healthy Humans

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundThe role of kidney hypoxia is considered pivotal in the progression of chronic kidney disease. A widely used method to assess kidney oxygenation is blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD)–magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but its interpretation ...
