Current status of renal clearances.
Determination of renal clearances continues to have value in clinical situations. Current knowledge of renal function permits expansion of the clearance concept to include non-excretory mechanisms by which kidneys clear substances from blood. Measurement of clearances is useful in quantifying renal function, progression of renal disease, response to therapy, determining the amount of dialysis r...
متن کاملResidual renal function improves outcome in incremental haemodialysis despite reduced dialysis dose.
BACKGROUND AND METHODS The importance of residual renal function is well recognized in peritoneal dialysis but its role in haemodialysis (HD) has received much less attention. We studied 650 incident patients in our incremental high-flux HD programme over a 15-year period. Target total Kt/V urea (dialysis plus residual renal) was 1.2 per session and monitored monthly. Renal urea clearance (KRU)...
متن کاملInulin and Endogenous Amino Acid Renal Clearances
Cystinuria is manifested by cystine calculi and high urinary excretion of cystine (2), lysine, arginine (3), and ornithine (4). Abnormally low plasma levels have been established for cystine (5, 6), lysine (7), arginine, and ornithine (5, 8). Several investigators have previously demonstrated increased renal clearances for cystine, lysine, arginine, and ornithine (7-11). These four amino acids ...
متن کاملRenal Clearances of Grass Polysaccharide: Observa- Tions
Dr. D. J. Bell, Biochemical Laboratory, Cambridge, drew our attention in 1948 to a fructosan polysaccharide (levan) prepared from Italian rye grass. It is readily soluble in cold water, yields levulose on acid hydrolysis and is not metabolized. At that time, the fructosan was believed to be a homogeneous substance with a molecular weight somewhat greater than that of inulin, so that the suggest...
متن کاملAcute kidney injury and residual renal function
Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurring in patients admitted to the ICU may result in impaired renal function on long-term follow-up after ICU discharge. The damage induced by subclinical or manifest episodes of AKI may, in fact, produce an irreversible loss of a variable amount of renal mass with deleterious effects on overall renal function. This may be the case even though baseline glomerular fi...
