Recycling of predictors used to estimate glomerular filtration rate: Insight into lateral collinearity
(2020-02-01)
Background One overlooked problem in statistical analysis is lateral collinearity, a phenomenon that may occur when the outcome variable derives from the predictors. In nephrology this issue is seen with the use of estimated ...
Urbanization and Altitude Are Associated with Low Kidney Function in Peru.
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019)
Background: Kidney health needs to be studied in low- and middle-income countries with populations living at high altitude and undergoing urbanization. We studied whether greater level of urbanization was associated with ...
Cystatin C and renal function in pediatric kidney transplant recipients
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2009-12-01)
In clinical practice, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is often determined with serum creatinine. However, studies have shown cystatin C to be a better parameter for the diagnosis of impaired renal function. We compared ...
Two-hour creatinine clearance and glomerular filtration rate estimated from serum cystatin C and creatinine in the elderly to preoperative period
(2013)
Introduction: The utility of estimates of glomerular filtration rate based on creatinine and cystatin C serum levels to assess renal function in older surgical patients remains to be determined. Objective: To determine ...
Estimation of the glomerular filtration rate in patients with glomerular pathology comparing CKD-EPI y MDRD-4 formulasUtilidad de las fórmulas CDK-EPI y MDRD-4 para estimar el índice de filtración glomerular en pacientes con patología glomerular

Estimation of glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine and cystatin C in octogenarians and nonagenarians
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2013-12-02)
Background: Equations to estimate GFR have not been well validated in the elderly and may misclassify persons with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We measured GFR and compared the performance of the Modification of Diet in ...
