Glomerular function Glomerular filtration is fundamental to the production of urine and to the homoeostatic functions of the kidney. Techniques for measuring the GFR, the amount of filtrate formed per unit time, are described in a later section (p. 131). ...
870 CpGs, the overlap of CpGs covered by the Illumina MethylationEPIC BeadChip and the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array, which were used for measurement by all but one study (Supplementary Data3). All studies performed array data cleaning and applied centrally developed scripts for...

The progression of loss of renal function If 80% of a rat’srenal massis removed, the animal developsproteinuria, hypertension and progressive renal failure;glomerular sclerosisis demonstrable in the renal remnant. Before hypertension and histological changes develop, there is a massive increase inrenal...
Internet of Things (IoT) as a useful paradigm in which, low cost body sensor and smart multimedia medical devices are applied to provide remote monitoring of kidney function, plays an important role, especially where the medical care centers are hardly available for most of people. To gain ...
Fig. 1: Association between CpG methylation and renal function. The methylation level of each CpG site was tested for its association with baseline eGFR (a–c) and eGFR slope (d–f). The results of all the 434,908 CpG sites analyzed in this study are shown using Manhattan plots (a,d)...
NHANES 1999-2004 participants were asked if they were aware they had “weak or failing kidneys” and the responses were tabulated by the presence of markers of CKD. Assessment of Demographics and Risk Factors for Kidney Disease NHANES included measurement of height and weight, which was used for...
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) assessment is indicated before every administration of cisplatin. The optimal modality for this purpose [GFR measurement by urinary Creatinine Clearance (uCrCl) versus GFR estimation (eGFR) by the CKD-EPI formula versus both] is unclear. We investigated whether eGFR ...
Initial management of persistent AKI should include reassessment of the underlying aetiology of AKI and precise measurement of kidney function. When persistent AKI is diagnosed, additional monitoring should be considered to re-evaluate haemodynamic and volume status, adequacy of kidney perfusion, and to ...
