Glomerular filtration: an overview.
The formation of urine is a process that begins with glomerular filtration and is greatly influenced by changes in renal hemodynamics. Selective filtration of the blood is possible because of the unique characteristics of the glomerulus and renal circulation. Many factors interact to maintain a consistent blood flow allowing filtration and urine formation to continue despite systemic changes in...

However, a good reference text if you would like to buy one is Koeppen and Stanton’s Renal Physiology, 4 edition, Mosby Elsevier, 2007, For this particular lecture (glomerular filtration), Chapter 3 is the reference chapter to read in this...
متن کاملEstimated glomerular filtration rate.
The recent article about estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by Levey and colleagues (1) is remarkable. The authors suggest that the new equation may still have some bias and especially may have less precision in patients with GFRs greater than 60 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 . This is even more important if the GFR is greater than 90 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 . In the paper's Methods section, Levey an...

متن کاملThe Glomerular Filtration Barrier: Components and Crosstalk
The glomerular filtration barrier is a highly specialized blood filtration interface that displays a high conductance to small and midsized solutes in plasma but retains relative impermeability to macromolecules. Its integrity is maintained by physicochemical and signalling interplay among its three core constituents-the glomerular endothelial cell, the basement membrane and visceral epithelial...
