Objectives: To assess the relationship between relative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) change and outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Study Design: This retrospective cohort ...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A fully automated artificial intelligence approach predicted post-nephrectomy glomerular filtration rate with comparable accuracy as validated clinical prediction models, according ...

A team has devised a more accurate way of measuring an indicator of kidney function known as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by taking aging into account. Annual health checkups regularly include ...

Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR. However, race in eGFR equations is a ...

Estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that are based on serum creatinine are routinely used; however, they are imprecise, potentially leading to the overdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) has no obvious symptoms in the early stages, although the health care burden caused by AKI proves it is a life-threatening disease with serious long-term consequences. The ...

Diabetic kidney disease is a leading cause of kidney failure worldwide, yet current treatments often slow progression ...
