Existing research indicates that at equivalent levels of creatinine, eGFR is generally higher in males than in females. This difference could be attributed to greater muscle mass in males, leading to higher creatinine production. Therefore, gender is a significant factor to adjust for when using ...
(aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection and atherosclerotic disease); diabetic complications (diabetic neuropathy, retinopathy and nephropathy); deterioration of renal function (doubling of serum creatinine, end-stage renal disease as defined by initiation of hemodia- lysis of renal transplantation); and non-...
Although CAR T-cell therapy is established for the treatment of relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas, its potential when applied as part of first-line therapy for patients at risk of early chemotherapy failure has not been studied. ZUMA-12, a prospective, phase 2, multicenter, single-arm tri...
One should anticipate and monitor serum CK levels while taking care of PP induced hyponatremia for the early recognition and treatment of rhabdomyolysis in order to prevent renal failure.1) Rizzieri DA. Rhabdomyolysis after correction of hyponatremia due to psychogenic polydipsia. Mayo Clin Proc 1995...
Table 2:TCN2 genotype effects on abnormal levels of HCY, MMA, creatinine and B12 at the study start among those who developed dementia. Note that a cluster of four factors: raised homocysteine, raised methylmalonic acid, high creatinine, plus TCN2 766G homozygosity occurs at the study start ...
“Patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC have historically had limited treatment options other than bladder removal surgery,” said Steven A. Boorjian, M.D., Carl Rosen Professor and Chair of the Department of Urology at Mayo Clinic, and lead investigator on th...
The serum uric acid-to- creatinine (SUA/Cr) ratio was calculated as serum uric acid divided by creatinine. Based on the median age or SUA/Cr ratio in delirium patients, the cut-off values for age and SUA/Cr ratio were set at 70 and 3.3, respectively.27 Bias We took a series of ...
(treated or untreated); uncontrolled endocrine or metabolic disease known to influence serum lipids or lipoproteins; impaired renal function (creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL) or nephrotic syndrome; or were taking any lipid-lowering agents, fibrates, resins or niacins, or prescription and/or over-the-...
Because serum creatinine is used to estimate eGFRcrea, associated genetic loci may be relevant to creatinine production or metabolism rather than kidney function per se. For this reason, we contrasted associations of eGFRcrea versus eGFRcys, the latter estimated from an alternative and creatinine-...
levels, estimated based on the density of nucleated cells in bone marrow smears or the ratio of nucleated cells to mature red blood cells (RBCs). Detailed records were maintained for the first-line treatment regimens, which encompassed immunomodulatory drug (IMiD)-based regimens, proteasome ...
