Mashup Score: 0Home - 9 month(s) ago
Tuesday, June 27, 2023 | Washington, DC Lack of consistency in the consideration of race in clinical algorithm design is impacting health equity. While the factor of race may be relevant in some models, in others race is immaterial at best, and at worst may actually exacerbate health disparities. It is time to re-examine and bring rigor to the consideration of race in clinical algorithms.The…

Background Although the population-level differences between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) are well recognized, the magnitude and potential clinical implications of individual-level differences are unknown. Objective To quantify the magnitude and consequences of the individual-level differences between mGFRs and eGFRs. Design…

How does CR impact renal function in patients w/#CKD? In the article entitled "Effect of CR on #GFR Using Serum Cystatin C Concentration in Patients w/CVD and Renal Dysfunction" Dr. Hama et al. examine this question.

Mashup Score: 4Evidence-Based Medical Therapy in Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction and Chronic Kidney Disease - 2 year(s) ago
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) as identified by a reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a common comorbidity in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The

Mashup Score: 1Measurement of glomerular filtration rate using endogenous d-serine clearance in living kidney transplant donors and recipients - 2 year(s) ago
The smaller proportional bias compared to that of C-cre is an advantage of C-dSer as a measure of C-in. Combinational measurement of d-serine and creatinine, two endogenous molecules, has the potential to serve as a measure of GFR with precision and minor biases and can support important clinical decisions.

Mashup Score: 1CKD Progression From the Time of Estimated GFR–Based Waitlist Eligibility and Racial Disparities in Transplant Access - 3 year(s) ago
eGFR equations that incorporate a term for race assign a higher value to Black individuals compared to non-Black individuals not attributable to sex, age, or serum creatinine. This difference may contribute to racial disparities in kidney transplant access. We sought to 1) compare time from meeting a transplant eligibility threshold of eGFR ≤20 ml/min/1.73M2 to kidney failure with replacement…

Mashup Score: 0
Serum creatinine and eGFR are imperfect estimates of true renal function, with systemic errors from muscle mass, tubular secretion, and intrinsic proportional bias; and additional inaccuracy at the extremes of renal function and patient muscularity. Cautious interpretation of eGFR results in the context of body habitus and clinical condition is recommended.
