Creatinine levels of 2.0 or more in infants and 5.0 or more in adults may indicate severe kidney damage. People who are dehydrated may have elevated creatinine levels. Low creatinine levelsare often seen in patients with low muscle mass and are not usually considered a serious medical problem. ...
In the Kaplan–Meier curve, we observed in our study that the group of patients without obesity (BMI < 30) and with MA < 92 cm2 had the highest inhospital mortality with a risk ratio of 9.66 regarding patients with obesity and muscle mass > 92 cm2, which corresponded to the group ...
Measurement of muscle mass in humans: validity of the 24-hour urinary creatinine method. Measuring muscle mass is an important component of the nutritional assessment examination and a suggested index of this body space is the 24-h urinary excr... S,B,Heymsfield,... - 《American Journal ...
While BUN levels may vary, creatinine blood levels are mostly stable. Creatinine is a waste product formed as a result of muscle wear and tear. Creatinine is produced from creatine, a protein that helps produce energy for muscle contractions. Creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys....
Even a moderate impairment in the glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance may result in hyperhomocysteinemia, especially for the elderly people. The genetic factors also influence the concentration of plasma Hcy. The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T variant, the most common...
(Supplementary Data17), such as skeletal muscle cell differentiation (e.g.,BTG2,ATF3,andNR4A1), response to hypoxia (e.g.,NR4A2,EGR1,andCPEB2) and the response to corticosteroids (e.g.,NR4A3,IGF1R,andFOS) (Fig.3e). However, tissue-shared DEGs from the other three comparisons ...
That large series had no patient on dialysis undergoing HDM/SCT, but 24% had a serum creatinine level >2.0 mg/dL. Long-term outcome data on 10 patients with MIDD treated with HDM/SCT at our center (2 on hemodialysis and 8 with a median serum creatinine level of 3.1 mg/dL and a...
Subjects with lower PhA values were older and showed lower body mass index, waist circumference, muscle mass index, creatinine, and uric acid; and higher gamma-GT and HDL cholesterol. Neither the presence of MetS nor the presence of the increasing number of MetS components was associated with ...
To monitor adverse effects related to the statin therapy, plasma glucose, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, creatinine, and creatine kinase levels were assessed at 6 weeks and 12, 24, and 36 months. Hemoglobin A1c was assessed at 12, 24, and 36 months. Study End Point T...
Primary endpoints were change in the Epworth Sleepiness Score (ESS), and predicted 5-year mortality using a cardiovascular risk score which incorporated age, sex, height, blood pressure, smoking history, diabetes, cholesterol, creatinine, left ventricular hypertrophy, previous myocardial infarction or ...
