Kidneys work quietly in the background, filtering waste, balancing fluids, and maintaining chemical stability without demanding attention. But this is until som ...
Kidney problems never or rarely announce themselves loudly. There is no sudden pain or obvious warning in the early stages, which often makes it difficult to re ...
Because race is a social construct, not a physical characteristic, the race coefficient may not be needed to calculate eGFR. Removing the race coefficient could increase the number of black ...
Objectives: To assess the relationship between relative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) change and outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Study Design: This retrospective cohort ...
The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a blood test to assess kidney function. The formula for calculating eGFR takes the patient’s body size, age, and sex into account to predict how well ...
Adopting a kidney-friendly diet like the DASH or Mediterranean diet and managing sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and protein intake may help improve GFR by reducing kidney strain. Maintaining heart ...
Impact of UGT1A4, UGT2B7, and UGT2B15 pharmacogenetics on tamoxifen (TAM) metabolism. Comparison of carboplatin dose calculated using eGFR formulae versus 51Cr-EDTA.
