Decoding your IGAN lab results: Understanding EGFR and UPCR, and predicting future kidney health
Understanding eGFR and uPCR is vital for managing IgA nephropathy to predict kidney health, guide treatment, and work ...
To determine an individual's kidney function, clinicians evaluate what's known as the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), with a GFR above 60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 being in the normal range. GFR can be ...
A cross sectional study found that substantial discrepancies exist between individual estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and directly measured GFR (mGFR). Laboratory reports that provide eGFR ...
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 ...
Overestimates of kidney function in Black individuals could contribute to underdiagnosis of CKD and delays in care, an editorial noted. Among equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ...
