...) class II-IV were enrolled. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 90 mL/min·1.73 m 2 was defined as renal dysfunction. The demographic, clinical data, blood samples and echocardiography were documented. The Pearson simple linear correlation was performed to evaluate the confounding factors...

...) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The impact of aTRH and achievement of recommended blood pressure (BP) values on the rate of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) loss in CKD patients is poorly known. To assess the role of aTRH and time-updated BP control (BPC) on the progression of CKD in patients with T2D...

... a novel oral small molecule BET inhibitor, apabetalone, in CKD patients. Methods: A post-hoc analysis evaluated patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73m 2 , who participated in the apabetalone phase 2 randomized controlled trials (SUSTAIN and ASSURE). 48 CKD subjects...

... for 597 type 2 diabetic outpatients. The definition of DKD was based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria, and the patients were grouped in three categories: no DKD (n=249), mild to moderate DKD (n=222), and severe DKD (n=126). Results: The frequency of the minor (G) allele...

..., methods, instructions or products referred to in the content or advertisements. Urinary creatinine excretion Creatinine clearance Prediction of renal function eGFR Electrical body impedance analysis Body cell mass An accurate evalutation of renal function is relevant to obese subjects...

... glomerular filtration (eGFR) and baPWV. Further, the parameters were compared among the four groups divided according to the quartiles of baPWV. Finally, the baPWV, eGFR and albuminuria values were compared between smokers and non-smokers. Results: baPWV is associated with eGFR in the correlation analysis...

... function in essential hypertension. Methods: One hundred and seventy-eight patients with essential hypertension participated in the study. Fasting serum samples were collected at 8:00 am. Renal function was measured as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease...

..., from the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP-1) in Northeast Germany and the Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg (KORA F4) Study in Southern Germany. Regional differences in selected percentiles corresponding to the cutpoints for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, <60 ml...

..., using the eGFR calculated with the CKD-EPI equation. Secondarily, we stratified patients according to treatment with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors. Results: Gates method tends to underestimate GFR especially in CKD stage I (mean -22.2 ml/min) and II (mean -12.5 ml/min). The division...

...) as marker of NO synthase inhibitor as well as 15-F 2t -Isoprostane and oxidized-low density lipoprotein (oxidized-LDL) as measures of oxidative stress in patients with early stages ADPKD. Methods: We recruited 26 ADPKD patients (Group A) with modestly impaired renal function (eGFR 45-70 ml/min/1.73m 2 ), 26...

... disease. Serum and urinary NGAL as well as serum cystatin C were measured using commercially available kits. Serum NGAL was related, in univariate analysis, to serum creatinine, urinary NGAL, hemoglobin, hematocrit, leukocyte count, eGFR, cystatin C. Urinary NGAL correlated with age, hemoglobin...
