Evaluation of Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimating Formulas in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Objective: Measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best determinant in assessment of kidney function for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. As extremely accurate methods of GFR measurement (i.e. Inulin clearance) are expensive and Time-consuming and due to limitations of the 24 hour urine collection method, some formula have been developed for the GFR measurement. Here we have ...
متن کاملEstimating Glomerular Filtration Rate in Older People
We aimed at reviewing age-related changes in kidney structure and function, methods for estimating kidney function, and impact of reduced kidney function on geriatric outcomes, as well as the reliability and applicability of equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in older patients. CKD is associated with different comorbidities and adverse outcomes such as disability and pre...
متن کاملEstimating glomerular filtration rate in patients with HIV infection.
Accurate markers of glomerular filtration rate in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected persons would be useful for early diagnosis of HIV-associated nephropathy and other glomerular diseases, and for identifying patients at high risk for subsequent declines in kidney function who also may develop cardiovascular disease or renal complications from antiretroviral agents or other therapies....
متن کاملNomogram for estimating glomerular filtration rate in elderly people.
After the second decade of life, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decreases progressively. There is still considerable debate about the importance of this "physiological decrease" in GFR with age in many situations attributed to the effects of concomitant hypertension, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular diseases (among others) observed in the elderly. The GFR is considered the best indicator o...
متن کاملCystatin C as a biomarker for estimating glomerular filtration rate.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is rarely measured in clinical practice because of the complexity of the measurement. As such, kidney function is typically estimated using validated study equations, which use readily available data including age, sex, race, and serum creatinine as filtration marker. Contemporary research suggests that cystatin C may be an improved alternative...
