Kidney function is typically assessed as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum creatinine. UK Biobank provides serum creatinine measurements from study center assessments (SC,=425,147 baseline,=15,314 with follow-up) and emerging electronic Medical Records (eMR, "GP-clinical") ...
Serum creatinine (SCr) levels are frequently used as a screening test to assess impaired renal function; however, patients can have significantly decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with normal SCr values and making the recognition of kidney dysfunction more difficult. Hence, this study was de...
eGFR was calculated using the CKD-EPI creatinine Eq. [31]. A food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to assess habitual food frequency intake, based on the FFQ used in the European Prospective Investigation of Cancer (EPIC) study. The FFQ included 102 foods items that are commonly ...
(TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), creatinine (Cr) and uric acid (UA) levels were examined using enzymatic colorimetric methods on a Hitachi 7600 analyzer ...
Sepsis-related acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is a severe condition characterized by high mortality rates. The utility of the sCAR (secrum creatinine/albumin) and LAR (Lactate dehydrogenase/albumin) as diagnostic markers for persistent severe SA-AKI remain
The variables that were measured at diagnosis included: age, gender, serum creatinine (Roche®), paraprotein type (Sebia®), paraprotein level, and serum FLC level (Freelite® assays from The Binding Site Ltd., Birmingham, UK). The eGFR was calculated using the Modification of Diet in ...
Age ranges from three to seventeen years, complete blood picture, serum creatinine, parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, phosphorous and sclerostin serum level and also DEXA scan were measured in both groups. All patients were free from acute illness or symptoms suggestive of a urinary...
and race. Adjust II model was completely adjusted for the following confounding factors: age, sex, race, diabetes, hypertension, HDL-C, LDL-C, and creatinine. Age, HDL-C, LDL-C, and creatinine levels were included in the regression model as continuous variables. Sex, race, diabetes, and ...
Activated inflammatory cells release chemokines and cytokines that can damage tubular epithelial cells, resulting in increased serum creatinine levels and decreased kidney function. Persistent infiltration of inflammatory cells leads to sustained chronic inflammation stimulation and fibrosis. It is evident that...
