One of the early products of the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children (CKiD) study has been an updated equation for estimating GFR in children on the basis of demographic and laboratory parameters.

Propensity score overlap weighting was used to compare outcomes. A composite of incident end-stage kidney disease, sustained 40% estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, or all-cause ...

Current guidelines define a GFR below 60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 for 3 months as chronic kidney disease, even in the absence of albuminuria. eGFRcr is usually used in routine practice, rather than ...

The kidneys have a few important jobs, but primarily they’re waste-removal experts. Inside your kidneys, blood passes through filtering units called nephrons. The nephrons remove excess nutrients like ...

Therefore, clinicians typically use a formula to check your GFR, which estimates how much blood passes through the glomeruli, tiny units found at the end of the kidneys that filter the blood ...

When the kidney is damaged, it may do the opposite. The results of the blood test should be adjusted for your age and sex. These provide a measure called glomerular filtration rate (GFR) which is the ...

and colleagues wrote in the American Journal of Kidney Diseases. For the Onco-GFR prospective study, the investigators created 2-, 3-, and 4-marker eGFR panels using race-free creatinine-based CKD ...

Obesity, uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension are the main risk factors for the development of kidney diseases. In this ...

It was 2017, three years before the widespread use of race in clinical algorithms — including the eGFR equation estimating Cannon’s kidney function — would become a flashpoint across medicine.

A SELECT trial subanalysis showed that semaglutide works as well in people with CVD, overweight/obesity, and impaired kidney ...
