Sex Differences in Age-Related Loss of Kidney Function

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2022
Significance Statement Although more women than men have CKD, more men develop kidney failure. Sex or gender disparities in health status or access to health care, or sex-specific rates of kidney function decline, may explain sex or gender disparities in

Race, Genetic Ancestry, and Estimating Kidney Function in CKD.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND The inclusion of race in equations to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has become controversial. Alternative equations that can be used to achieve similar accuracy without the use of race are needed.

Pro-resolving lipid mediators: regulators of inflammation, metabolism and kidney function

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2021
Obesity, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and cardiovascular disease are risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney failure. Chronic, low-grade inflammation is recognized as a major pathogenic mechanism that underlies the association between

Assessment of kidney function: clinical indications for measured GFR

Clinical Kidney Journal, 2021
In the vast majority of cases, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is estimated using serum creatinine, which is highly influenced by age, sex, muscle mass, body composition, severe chronic illness and many other factors.

Evaluation of kidney function throughout the heart failure trajectory – a position statement from the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2020
Appropriate interpretation of changes in markers of kidney function is essential during the treatment of acute and chronic heart failure. Historically, kidney function was primarily assessed by serum creatinine and the calculation of estimated glomerular
