Glomerular Filtration Rate and Renal Functional Reserve
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is usually accepted as the best overall index of kidney function in health and disease. Normal GFR varies according to age, sex, and body size. In young adults it is approximately 120-130ml/ min/1.73 m2 and declines with age1. A decrease in GFR precedes the onset of clinical kidney failure; therefore, a persistently reduced GFR is a specific indication of chroni...
متن کاملGlomerular filtration rate in children with chronic kidney disease.
Schwartz et al. (1 ) have reported a new formula for estimating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This is an excellent analysis based on a carefully described, prospectively recruited cohort of children with various types of kidney diseases that have compromised function. The analysis is precise and the results seem to provide a more accurate, n...
متن کاملCompensatory Renal Hypertrophy in Dogs: Single Nephron Glomerular Filtration Rate
Sodium ferrocyanide was used to measure the intrarenal distribution of single nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR) in remaining kidneys of dogs, 10 d after contralateral nephrectomy. It was first demonstrated that the renal function of both kidneys in situ was comparable. Following right nephrectomy, the urine volume, p-aminohippuric acid clearance, creatine clearance, osmolar clearance, ...
متن کاملMonitoring renal function in children with Fabry disease: comparisons of measured and creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate.
BACKGROUND Studies on renal function in children with Fabry disease have mainly been done using estimated creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The aim of this study was to compare estimated creatinine-based GFR (eGFR) with measured GFR (mGFR) in children with Fabry disease and normal renal function. METHODS Eighty-two examinations were done in 42 children (24 boys, 18 girls) wit...
متن کاملEvaluation 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 ...
