A research team from Japan evaluated the validity of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as a preoperative renal function parameter in patients with gastric cancer. Their study showed that ...

Although creatinine clearance (Ccr) has been measured clinically by a simple method as a preoperative renal function test, Ccr is not strictly equal to glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Recently, an ...

Your kidney function test results are a measure of how well your kidneys are working to filter your blood and remove excess water and waste from the body. For example, the estimated glomerular ...

The most important test to check the health of the kidney is the kidney function test. It is also called renal function test. In this, the functioning of the kidney is checked on several parameters ...

eGFR equations significantly overestimate renal function in patients with renal masses when compared with 24-hour CrCl-derived measured GFR, particularly near clinically meaningful thresholds. This ...

Renal function, evaluated as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF), was investigated in 187 pediatric patients who underwent allogeneic (n=169) or autologous bone ...

In the investigation of 250 patients for the presence of unilateral renovascular hypertension we have correlated the results of renal biopsy with the measurement of renal plasma flow as calculated ...
