AIMS Pre-operative renal dysfunction is a known risk factor for mortality and morbidity after heart surgery. Despite limited accuracy, serum creatinine is widely used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Cystatin C is more accurate for assessing GFR. The aim of the present study was to assess associations between GFR estimated from serum cystatin C levels before heart surgery and hospi...
AIMS To determine differences in predictors of albuminuria and decreased estimated GFR in Japanese people with Type 2 diabetes mellitus without chronic kidney disease. METHODS This single-centre observational cohort study involved 1802 Japanese people with Type 2 diabetes with normoalbuminuria and estimated GFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (740 women; mean ± sd age 58 ± 12 years). Two separate outco...
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been identified as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS AND RESULTS The risk of cardiovascular death was evaluated in a large cohort of participants selected randomly from the overall Japanese population. Participants (mean age, 52.4 years) free of previous CVD were followed up for 10 years. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was es...
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was the assessment of kidney morphology and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in rat models of polycystic kidney disease and a healthy control group of Sprague-Dawley rats (SD rats). The performance of two non-invasive GFR estimation methods-3.0 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and optical imaging were investigated. Data of GFR assessment was compared to su...
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), a neuronal survival factor, binds its co-receptor GDNF family receptor alpha1 (GFR alpha 1) in a 2:2 ratio and signals through the receptor tyrosine kinase RET. We have solved the GDNF(2).GFR alpha 1(2) complex structure at 2.35 A resolution in the presence of a heparin mimic, sucrose octasulfate. The structure of our GDNF(2).GFR alpha 1(2) co...
Background and purpose: Aminoglycosides (AG) such as Amikacin that are widely used to prevent and treat infections in neonates have nephrotoxic effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of urinary index to Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in diagnosis of tubular renal injury following administration of Amikacin in neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Materia...
Whether changes in renal blood flow (RBF) are associated with and possibly contribute to cystic disease progression in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) has not been ascertained. The Consortium for Radiologic Imaging Studies of Polycystic Kidney Disease (CRISP) was created to develop imaging techniques and analyses to evaluate progression. A total of 131 participants with ear...
BACKGROUND Accurate measurement of renal function in cirrhotic patients is still challenging. To find the best test for the determination of the true glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in cirrhotic patients this study prospectively compared measured (m)GFR, the gold standard, with estimated (e)GFR using equations based on serum levels of creatinine and cystatin C. METHODS GFR was measured by si...
Limited prospective data are available on the importance of estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and proteinuria in the prediction of all-cause mortality (ACM) in community-based elderly populations. We examined the relationship between GFR or proteinuria and ACM in 949 randomly selected community-dwelling elderly subjects (aged ≥65 years) over a 5-year period. A spot urine sample was use...
The use of outpatient laboratory databases to identify people with a low GFR may be part of an effective strategy to increase their use of treatments to prevent kidney failure. All renal function data from 17 independent outpatient laboratories in Eastern Ontario were combined to determine the proportion of adults with at least one serum creatinine measurement during a 1-yr period. The detectio...
