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 کاملUsing estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to help manage patients with chronic kidney disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been considered an uncommon condition requiring specialist management. The traditional view of CKD has been of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant as forms of renal replacement therapy (RRT). However the prevalence of CKD is much higher than previously appreciated and this has provided a stimulus to the integrat...
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 relationship between thyroid function and estimated glomerular filtration rate in patients with chronic kidney disease.
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown an increasing risk of hypothyroidism with incrementally lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in cohorts comprised of patients with normal to mildly impaired kidney function. We sought to confirm these findings in a nationally representative cohort of Veterans Affairs patients with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS This s...
