Predicted creatinine clearance to evaluate glomerular filtration rate in black Caribbean subjects.
BACKGROUND AND METHODS Although Caribbean people have been a lesser-studied ethnic group than other populations, they have a high burden of hypertension and renal disease. Because Caribbean people have a greater muscle mass than Caucasians, this study examined the accuracy of creatinine-based estimates (creatinine clearance; C(cr) and Cockcroft-Gault formula; C-G Cl) of glomerular filtration ra...
متن کاملSerum Creatinine, Urea Nitrogen And Endogenous Creatinine Clearance Based Glomerular Filtration Rate In Camels To Evaluate Renal Functions
To evaluate renal functions in camel, the study on profiles like Serum Creatinine (SC), Serum urea nitrogen (SUN), SUN/SC ratio was undertaken in institute’s herd of camels (n=250) (Camelus dromedarius) of all age groups, both sexes and three breeds and in addition Glomerular Filtration rate (GFR) of 18 male camels of 3 breeds (n=6 each) with 6 individual replicates (Total 108 observations) wer...
متن کاملEffect of alcohol consumption on estimated glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance rate.
BACKGROUND Moderate alcohol consumption is widely recognized as beneficial in the prevention of cardiovascular disease, yet the renal effects of alcohol intake are still controversial. The present study is designed to investigate the influence of alcohol consumption on calculated creatinine clearance rate (CCr) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in a Southern Taiwan Pai-Wan aboriginal communi...
متن کاملA practical approach to glomerular filtration rate measurements: creatinine clearance estimation using cimetidine.
Determination of creatinine clearance (Ccr) is not a reliable indicator of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), owing to tubular secretion of creatinine. It has been reported that Ccr measurements can approximate true GFR after cimetidine (Ci) administration. In this study, GFR was estimated by Cockcroft and Gault's equation (C(C-G)) based on measurement of plasma creatinine, and Ccr was determine...
متن کاملEstimated Glomerular Filtration Rate —A More Stable Indicator than Creatinine Clearance in Peritoneal Dialysis Practice
OBJECTIVE The usefulness of estimated glomerular filtration rate may not be restricted to pre-dialysis patients, since we reported that estimated glomerular filtration rate was well correlated with measured total creatinine clearance in peritoneal dialysis patients. To clarify the clinical usefulness of estimated glomerular filtration rate as a parameter for peritoneal dialysis adequacy, we ret...
