The utility of liver function tests for mortality prediction within one year in primary care using the algorithm for liver function investigations (ALFI) [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Although liver function tests (LFTs) are routinely measured in primary care, raised levels in patients with no obvious liver disease may trigger a range of subsequent expensive and unnecessary management plans.

The eGFR-C study: accuracy of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation using creatinine and cystatin C and albuminuria for monitoring disease progression in patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease - prospective longitudinal study in a multiethnic population [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Uncertainty exists regarding the optimal method to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for disease detection and monitoring. Widely used GFR estimates have not been validated in British ethnic minority populations.

Impact of colloids or crystalloids in renal function assessed by NGAL and KIM-1 after hysterectomy: randomized controlled trial

Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022
Background: Hydroxyethyl starches are colloids used in fluid therapy that may reduce volume infusion compared with crystalloids, but they can affect renal function in critical care patients. This study aims to assess renal effects of starches using renal

PHENOLSULPHONEPHTHALEIN AND FUNCTIONAL TESTS OF THE KIDNEYS [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1912
My experience with the use of phenolsulphonephthalein commenced very shortly after Rowntree and Geraghty1began their experiments with it. I base my belief in its efficacy on a large number of cases seen in Dr. H. H. Young's clinic at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and in my private work. I shall also consider here some of the other functional tests of the
