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

Glomerular 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.

Effect of sex on glomerular filtration rate in programmed rats by prenatal dexamethasone

Physiological Reports, 2019
We have previously demonstrated that dexamethasone administered to pregnant rats during specific times during gestation results in a reduction in glomerular number and hypertension in offspring at 2 and 6 months of age.

Renin-angiotensin system antagonists, glomerular filtration rate and blood pressure

Počki, 2018
The article deals with the mModern data on the influence of renin-angiotensin system blockers on the glomerular filtration rate, the level of arterial pressure and the outcome of chronic kidney disease.

Maternal glomerular filtration rate in pregnancy and fetal size. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: The relationship of maternal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in pregnancy to fetal size needs to be better characterized as it impacts an ongoing debate about confounding effect of maternal GFR in investigations of important environmental ...

Incomplete reversibility of estimated glomerular filtration rate decline following tenofovir disoproxil fumarate exposure. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been linked to renal impairment, but the extent to which this impairment is reversible is unclear. We aimed to investigate the reversibility of renal decline during TDF therapy.

GABP Promotes Mesangial Cell Proliferation and Renal Fibrosis Through GLI1 in Diabetic Nephropathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GABP is found to promote mesangial cell proliferation and ECM deposition through GLI1, while inhibiting GABP or GLI1 prevents the progression of DN by reducing ECM and fibrosis. The research results indicate that a potential therapeutic approach based on inhibiting mesangial cell proliferation and ECM accumulation can effectively treat DN, while GABP ...

Post-kidney donation glomerular filtration rate measurement and estimation

Nefrología (English Edition), 2021
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.

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 ...

Automatic Classification of Irregularly Sampled Time Series with Unequal Lengths: A Case Study on Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
A patient's estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) can provide important information about disease progression and kidney function. Traditionally, an eGFR time series is interpreted by a human expert labelling it as stable or unstable. While this approach works for individual patients, the time consuming nature of it precludes the quick evaluation
