However, we know that GFR physiologically decreases with age, and in adults older than 70 years, values below 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 could be considered normal. Is a GFR of 52 bad? A GFR of 60 or higher is in the normal range. A GFR below 60 may mean kidney disease. A GFR of 15 ...

What does renal reserve mean? The renal functional reserve was defined asthe ability of the kidney to increase Renal Plasma Flow (RPF) and Glomerular Filtration Rate(GFR) after a stimulus as a protein load. The absence of RFR defines a state of hyperfiltration which seems to be a detrimental...
In short, what two factors affect mean arterial blood pressure? Define pulmonary hypertension. 1. How do you record BP and what is the average? 2. Describe arterial BP, capillary BP, and venous BP. 3. How are they different? 4. What factors influence BP in ...
Question: What does your hematocrit level tell you? Hemoglobin: Hemoglobin is a biological iron-metalloprotein found in erythrocytes that are capable of transporting essential molecular gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen. The hemoglobin of the erythrocytes is responsible for carrying molecular oxygen...
Maternal malnutrition and resultant low birth weight in the offspring might predispose to CKD, possibly due to low nephron numbers. This finding presents a challenge for developers of CKD detection programs, as these patients do not exhibit the usual parameters that define high risk for CKD such ...
On the contrary, patterns with higher consumption of fibre and vegetable proteins, such as the Mediterranean, vegetarian, or Plant dominant low protein diet (PLADO), seem to have a preventive effect on the associated risk factors and influence CKD progression. Until now, the use of fibre ...
The protein intake was evaluated according to the renal function, calculated via creatinine clearance, through the collection of urine from the last 24 h (GFR 42 mL/min, mean values). Since dieting is often a type of intervention that is maintained over time with difficulty on the part of ...
2.3. Development of Standards for the Future IoT By standards we mean guidelines for "how to do" the activities which must be done at all levels in designing, managing and using the IoT, not just highly technical standards, e.g., the Constrained Restful Environments (CoRE) standard for ...
