Renal injury is an acknowledged potential complication in healthy horses following administration of BPs. In the horses we investigated after administration of CLO, no alterations in serum BUN or creatinine or urine protein:creatinine ratios were observed. This information will help direct future studies...
GFR is a calculation that takes into account creatinine levels, along with age, gender, race, and weight. The GFR can be an indicator ofrenal disease. A GFR below 60 for three months or above 60 with signs of kidney damage (for example, protein in the urine is a sign of kidney damage...
