According to the BUN/creatinine ratio chart, normal BUN/creatinine ratio typically falls between 10:1 or 20:1, and with age it is likely to be on the higher end of normal. Values consistently around 20:1 may be early warning signs of kidney disease. Any value above 20:1 indicates that ...
This is a cross-sectional study to show whether and how serum fasting homocysteine levels are associated with renal function indicators in old Chinese patients with hypertension. To derive more information from the relationship between homocysteine level and renal function, we have not used a surrogate...
Proteinuria is known to be associated with both kidney function deterioration and cardiovascular diseases. While proteinuria estimation from 24-h urine samples has traditionally been considered as the standard method for assessment of the degree of urina

Exclusion criteria were as follows: 1) patients were younger than 18 years old; 2) patients had a stroke history within 6 months or the modified Rankin scale (iriRS) > 0 before the onset; 3) patients with acute kidney injury (serum Cr and CysC have variable kinetics and the Cr/CysC ...
Patients with an upper urinary tract stone often developed acute kidney injury (AKI) after surgery, which might be related to the increased risk of POD.45,46 Unfortunately, we did not measure and compare the postoperative renal function index among various surgeries, including estimated glomerular ...

acute kidney injury; patent ductus arteriosus; conservative management1. Introduction Assessing kidney function is crucial for meticulous fluid, electrolyte, and nutritional support, and the adjustment of medication dosage in extremely preterm infants (EPT) [1,2,3,4].
