The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of how well your kidneys are removing waste from your blood, which can be determined using an estimated GFR (eGFR) test. The test gets its name from glomeruli -- the parts of your kidney that filter out waste. (Photo credit: Image Source...
Stage 3a & 3b CKD: Mild to severe loss of kidney function, eGFR 30-59. Stage 4 CKD: Severe loss of kidney function, eG FR 15-29. Is GFR 94 normal? Results. A GFR of 60 or higher is in the normal range. A GFR below 60 may mean kidney disease. A GFR of 15 or lower may me...
ASD does not have a simple or single neuroanatomical phenotype that indicates obvious or consistent neurodevelopmental mechanisms. However, there is evidence of anatomical defects involving increased growth of the cerebral cortex, especially at the level of the frontal lobes, up to the third year of ...

EGFR mutation status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC): A predictive biomarker for response to erlotinib treatment, guiding personalized therapy selection. Phosphorylated AKT (pAKT) levels: A pharmacodynamic biomarker confirming the inhibition of the PI3K pathway by PI3K inhibitors in cancer treatme...
Complete transection of this vessel causes severe trauma and ocular inflammation, and wide- spread retinal infarction; permanent occlusion of this vessel does not correspond to CRA occlusion in humans, and even a temporary occlusion in rats probably causes more widespread injury. Hence, the degree ...
Rhinovirus infections commonly evoke asthma exacerbations in children and adults. Recurrent asthma exacerbations are associated with injury-repair responses in the airways that collectively contribute to airway remodeling. The physiological consequences
Given that key components of conserved signaling pathways like Notch, Hedgehog, Wnt, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) were identified usingDrosophilawings models [85,86,87,88,89,90,91],Drosophilawing provides an effective system to evaluate the role of autism and other neurodevelopment-...
What is the difference between eGFR and GFR? What factors are taken into consideration when calculating both? What is meant by the isoelectric point (pI) of a protein? Clinically, what does the LVSWI reflect? What has epidemiology contributed to people s understanding of: Heart disease? What ...
The reduced efficacy of the EGFR inhibitor (cetuximab) is due to the adverse effect of the over methylation of the MSI-H tumor on the EGFR inhibitor, resulting in the low expression of the EGFR ligand. Because the vascular normalization induced by bevacizumab can enhance the infiltration and ...
