Assessment of renal function by inulin clearance: comparison with creatinine clearance as determined by enzymatic methods.
We compared creatinine clearances determined by enzymatic (Kodak Ektachem 700 single-slide, Boehringer Mannheim creatinine PAP) and nonenzymatic (Jaffé, HPLC) methods with glomerular filtration rate measured by inulin clearance in patients with varying degrees of renal function. The Kodak enzymatic assay gave values for creatinine 2 to 3 mg/L higher than the other methods. This resulted in sign...
متن کاملRenal clearance of ifosfamide.
Nephrotoxicity is an important clinical side effect of the chemotherapeutic agent ifosfamide. This medication is activated by the hepatic cytochrome P450 system with potentially toxic metabolites produced through both ring hydroxylation and chloroethyl side chain oxidation pathways. Using an isolated perfused rat kidney preparation, we examined the possibility that renal metabolism of ifosfamid...
متن کاملVisualizing Software in Virtual Reality
Software visualisations of one form or another appear in numerous software maintenance tools. Visualisation is arguably one of the most profitable means of communicating information to a user. As software systems become larger and more complex we find ourselves in greater need for techniques to visualise such large information structures. This paper concentrates on visualising software systems ...
متن کاملStereoselective Renal Clearance
In this study, pindolol, a j-adrenoceptor blocking agent marketed as a racemic mixture, was used as a model compounpl to investigate stereoselective renal clearance of organic cations in human beings. Six normal subjects received an oral dose of 20 mg racemic pindolol. Heart rate and blood pressure were measured throughout the study. A stereospecific high performance liquid chromatographic proc...
متن کاملAn Optimal Ray Traversal Scheme for Visualizing Colossal Medical Volumes
Modern computers are unable to store the complete data of high resolution medical images in main memory. Even on secondary memory (disk), such large datasets are sometimes stored in a compressed form. At rendering time, parts of the volume are requested by the ray tracing algorithm and are loaded from disk. If one is not careful, the same regions may be (decompressed and) loaded to memory sever...
