However, her urea nitrogen and creatinine levels steadily increased to 18 mmol/L (normal, 8-23 mg/dL) and 280 [micro]mol/L, (normal, 53-106 [micro]mol/L), respectively. After consulting our nephrologists, we sent the patient for dialysis on postoper...
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR): This blood test measures how well your kidneys are filtering blood based on how muchcreatinine(a waste product created by the normal breakdown of muscles) is found in your blood. Urine albumin-creatinine ratio (uACR): This urine test measures how well...
Creatinineis a by-product of muscle metabolism. It is continually filtered out of the blood by the kidneys throughout the day. When kidneys become inefficient or overloaded, creatinine levels rise. This can be detected by urine tests and is a possible early warning sign of kidney failure. Horm...

2 Entering this second decade of CAR T-cell therapy with more experience with antigen targeting across a breadth of novel constructs, we are better armed to prevent and manage CAR T-cell–associated inflammatory toxicities. Despite these advances, severe toxicities, including refractoriness to ...
