Single-Nephron Glomerular Filtration Rate in Healthy Adults.
BACKGROUND The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) assesses the function of all nephrons, and the single-nephron GFR assesses the function of individual nephrons. How the single-nephron GFR relates to demographic and clinical characteristics and kidney-biopsy findings in humans is unknown. METHODS We identified 1388 living kidney donors at the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic who underwent a...
متن کاملEstimation of glomerular filtration rate in infants and in children using a single-plasma sample method.
This work was undertaken to look for distribution volume-plasma clearance converting equations(s) that can be used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in children. GFR calculated using the two-blood sample slope-intercept method was used for comparison. It was shown that the 2-hr distribution volume and the two-blood sample clearance were closely related. For all the age groups, the co...
متن کاملUsing Mathematical Algorithms to Modify Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation Equations
BACKGROUND The equations provide a rapid and low-cost method of evaluating glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Previous studies indicated that the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD), Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) and MacIsaac equations need further modification for application in Chinese population. Thus, this study was designed to modify the three equations, and compare...
متن کاملGlomerular filtration rate estimation and mortality in an elderly population.
BACKGROUND Few studies have addressed the link between minor renal dysfunction and mortality in the elderly. AIM To compare three equations for estimated GFR (eGFR) in assessing renal dysfunction and predicting mortality in an elderly population. DESIGN Longitudinal observational study. METHODS We studied 441 people from the Jerusalem Seventy Year Olds Longitudinal Study who had measureme...
متن کاملReference values for glomerular filtration rate in healthy Brazilian adults
BACKGROUND Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best index of renal function, but age, gender and ethnicity can putatively affect its values. The aim of this study was to establish reference values for GFR in healthy Brazilian subjects while taking these factors into account. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, GFR was measured by the 51Cr-EDTA single-injection method. GFR reference val...
