Aim: This study evaluated the bias and accuracy of the CKD-EPI/CKiD and EKFC equations compared with the reference exogenous tracer-based assessment of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in adult and pediatric patients according to their renal transplant status.
Methods: We assessed the bias and P accuracy of the CKD-EPI/CKiD and EKFC equations compared with iohexol-based GFR measurement.
Results: In the overall population (n = 59), the median age was 29 years (IQR, 16.
Article Synopsis
- Renal dysfunction frequently occurs in patients with cirrhosis, either due to acute illness or the progression of liver disease, but comprehensive evaluations of renal function markers have not been thoroughly studied.
- A retrospective study was conducted on hospitalized cirrhosis patients from January 2021 to June 2023, involving a detailed assessment of renal function across 43 parameters.
- The findings revealed that most patients exhibited renal abnormalities, with significant overestimations in estimated glomerular filtration rates compared to measured creatinine clearance, highlighting the importance of multiparametric assessments for properly evaluating kidney function in these patients.*
Background: Recent data have shown that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 can infect renal proximal tubular cells via Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) . Our objective was to determine whether Fanconi syndrome is a frequent clinical feature in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.
Methods: A retrospective cohort of 42 laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patients without history of kidney disease hospitalized in University Hospital of Nancy was investigated.
