While GFR can be measured most accurately by the urinary clearance of an exogenous ideal filtration marker such as inulin, it is more clinically useful to estimate GFR using a single serum measurement of an endogenous biomarker such as creatinine or cystatin C. When in steady state, there is ...
Plasma or serum creatinine is the most commonly used diagnostic marker for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in clinical routine. Due to substantial pre-analytical and analytical interferences and limitations, creatinine cannot be considered accurate. Besides, the diagnostic sensitivity to...
This report aims to address the mechanisms by which the ingestion of creatine ethyl ester can mimic the blood results expected in advanced renal failure, and confronts the problems faced when relying on serum creatinine as a diagnostic tool. 展开 ...
creatine is not very stable in liquid form and tests of serums on the market have shown that most if not all overstate their creatine contents. This is due to the creatine becoming unstable and converting to creatinine, the waste product of creatine. Serum use remains...
Patients older than 70 years old, with renal dysfunction, or low lean body mass are recommended to start at lower doses of 0.125mg daily or every other day. Dosing nomograms based on ideal body weight and creatinine clearance are available [36]. Digoxin toxicity, which can cause fatal ...

Moreover, frequent adverse effects including impaired renal function as expressed by rises in serum creatinine and urea nitrogen, hyperkalemia and recurrent genitourinary infections are certainly likely to lead to the decline in quality of life. Finally, a rise in LDL cholesterol accompanied by ...
Blood chemistry tests: Levels of blood creatinine, albumin, and calcium will be particularly checked. A blood test that measures lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels can predict a patient’s chances of survival. Quantitative immunoglobulins: This test measures the blood levels of the different antibodies...
The CLEAR Outcomes trial of high cardiovascular risk patients, with elevated LDL-C levels and either unable or unwilling to take statins demonstrated that bempedoic acid reduced the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events. A greater incidence of elevation of hepatic transaminase and creatinine, ...
