Resistin, glomerular filtration rate, and insulin resistance.
Resistin, Glomerular Filtration Rate, and Insulin Resistance To the Editor: The recent article by Ellington et al1 showed a significant inverse relationship between circulating resistin levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in hypertensive adults without cardiovascular disease. This association was independent of markers for insulin resistance and inflammation, suggesting that ...
متن کاملGlomerular filtration rate, cardiovascular risk factors and insulin resistance.
The aim of this paper was to study the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), its changes with age, and its association with systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP), indicators of obesity, dyslipemia, insulin resistance and inflammation on a random population sample. BP, weight, size and waist circumference (WC) were recorded at home. Fasting morning blood samples were analys...
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 کاملSerum Resistin and Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
BACKGROUND High serum levels of the pro-inflammatory adipokine resistin have been associated with decreased renal function in the general population. The goal of this study was to investigate whether such association is also present among diabetic subjects, who are at increased risk of renal function loss. METHODS The cross-sectional association between serum resistin levels and estimated glo...
متن کاملAssociation of plasma resistin with glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria in hypertensive adults.
Resistin, a recently discovered proinflammatory cytokine, has been variably associated with insulin resistance, inflammation, and renal dysfunction. We investigated the association of plasma resistin with estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria in 1575 hypertensive adults without known coronary heart disease or stroke (857 blacks and 718 non-Hispanic whites). Resistin was measured ...
