Serum creatinine and glomerular filtration rate: perception and reality.
Na primeira leitura, o relato de Spanaus et al.(13) no Clinical Chemistry pode ser descartado como apenas mais uma comparação entre biomarcadores séricos para taxa de filtração glomerular (TFG). Entretanto, os resultados e as conclusões deverão estimular uma reavaliação da concepção errônea, amplamente disseminada, de que a creatinina sérica é um biomarcador insensível da TFG e uma afirmação do...
متن کاملEstimation of glomerular filtration rate from the serum creatinine concentration.
In patients with renal failure the dose of renally excreted drugs should be reduced in proportion with the degree of impairment of glomerular filtration: in this situation it is appropriate to measure the glomerular filtration rate in order to determine accurately the correct dose. However, as 24 hour urine based creatinine clearance measurements are time consuming and inaccurate, the parameter...
متن کاملExisting creatinine-based equations overestimate glomerular filtration rate in Indians
BACKGROUND Accurate estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important for diagnosis and risk stratification in chronic kidney disease and for selection of living donors. Ethnic differences have required correction factors in the originally developed creatinine-based GFR estimation equations for populations around the world. Existing equations have not been validated in the vegetarian ...
متن کاملEstimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate Based on Serum Cystatin C versus Creatinine in a Uruguayan Population
Background. Estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from biomarkers has evolved and multiple equations are available to estimate renal function at bedside. Methods. In a random sample of 119 Uruguayans (54.5% women; 56.2 years (mean)), we used Bland and Altman's method and Cohen's kappa statistic to assess concordance on a continuous or categorical (eGFR < 60 versus ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m(2)...
متن کاملDetermining Glomerular Filtration Rate in Homozygous Sickle Cell Disease: Utility of Serum Creatinine Based Estimating Equations
BACKGROUND Various estimating equations have been developed to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for use in clinical practice. However, the unique renal physiological and pathological processes that occur in sickle cell disease (SCD) may invalidate these estimates in this patient population. This study aims to compare GFR estimated using common existing GFR predictive equations to actua...
