Type of Fatty Acid Intake, Serum Lipid and Lipoprotein Levels in relation to Creatinine and GFR
Correlation between fatty acids intake, serum lipid and lipoproteins with serum creatinine and kidney function in patients with renal failure has been suggested by other investigators. This relationship has not been reported for all types of fatty acids. This study was conducted to determine the association of the consumption of different type of fatty acids, serum lipids and lipoproteins with ...
متن کاملDetermining an accurate method to estimate GFR in renal transplant recipients with stable serum creatinine levels
Introduction:Detecting renal allograft dysfunction early will allow timely diagnosis and treatment. There is no objective recommendation by national kidney societies for glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) estimation in post-transplant setting. 99mTc-DTPA Technetium-99m Diethylene triamine penta acetic acid) renogram can identify early renal dysfunction much before ser...
متن کاملP2P and Cloud: A Marriage of Convenience for Replica Management
P2P and cloud computing are two of the latest trend in the Internet arena. They could both be labeled as “large-scale distributed systems”, yet their approach is completely different: based on completely decentralized protocols exploiting edge resources the former, focusing on huge data centers the latter. Several Internet startups have quickly reached stardom by exploiting cloud resources, unl...
متن کاملImprecision of creatinine-based GFR estimates in uninephric kidney donors.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To ensure long-term safety of living kidney donors, it is now recommended that they be followed for at least 2 years after donation and that serum creatinine levels be monitored. Such levels are often subjected by clinical laboratories to estimating equations and are reported as estimated GFR (eGFR). The accuracy of such equations in uninephric living donors has yet to...
متن کاملRetooling the creatinine clearance equation to estimate kinetic GFR when the plasma creatinine is changing acutely.
It is often desirable to estimate the GFR (eGFR) at the bedside to assess AKI or renal recovery. Current eGFR equations estimate kidney function when the plasma creatinine is stable, but do not work if the plasma creatinine is changing rapidly. To analyze kidney function in the acute setting, a simple formula is proposed that requires only a modest number of inputs that are readily obtainable f...
