Abstract Evaluation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is central to the assessment of kidney
function in medical practice, research and public health. Measured GFR (mGFR) remains …

Current criteria for the diagnosis of CKD in adults include persistent signs of kidney damage,
such as increased urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio or a GFR below the threshold of 60 …

Abstract The 2017 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Clinical Practice
Guideline on the Evaluation and Care of Living Kidney Donors is intended to assist medical …

Estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for clinical practice, research, and
public health. Appropriate interpretation of estimated GFR (eGFR) requires understanding …

Background Population mean GFR is lower in older age, but it is unknown whether healthy
aging is associated with preserved rather than lower GFR in some individuals. Methods We …

In nephrology, chronic kidney disease is defined by both proteinuria and measurement of
glomerular filtration rate (GFR). This article focuses on GFR and different ways to define its …

Defining chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the subject of intense debate in the current
nephrology literature. The debate concerns the threshold value of estimated glomerular …

Background There is a need for a large, contemporary, multi-centre series of measured
glomerular filtration rates (mGFR) from healthy individuals to determine age-and gender …

Background: Normal kidney function or, more specifically, normal glomerular filtration rate
(GFR) in men and women and its decline with age is still much debated today. The Chronic …

RATIONALE The definition of CKD remains intact, but we have clarified the classification
and risk stratification as indicated below. The addition of 'with implications for health'is …
