Day-to-Day Variability in Spot Urine Albumin-Creatinine Ratio

TLDR
Day-to-day variability in spot urine ACR measurements was substantial and increased in absolute terms, but decreased in relative terms, with increasing baseline ACR.

Early chronic kidney disease: diagnosis, management and models of care

TL;DR: Which early CKD interventions are appropriate, the optimum time to provide clinical care, and the most suitable model of care to adopt are discussed.

Proteomic biomarkers in kidney disease: issues in development and implementation

TL;DR: The valuable lessons learned from early clinical studies of potential proteomic biomarkers in kidney disease are presented to give context to the newly identified biomarkers, which have potential for actual clinical implementation.

Relationship between eGFR Decline and Hard Outcomes after Kidney Transplants

TL;DR: It is concluded that 30% decline in eGFR between years 1 and 3 after kidney transplant is common and strongly associated with risks of subsequent death and death-censored graft failure, which mirrors findings in CKD.

An age-calibrated definition of chronic kidney disease: Rationale and benefits.

TL;DR: An age-calibrated definition of CKD has been proposed to distinguish age-related from disease-related changes in eGFR to take into account the physiologic decline in GFR with ageing and account for the risk of mortality and end-stage renal disease being trivial.

Urine Albumin/Creatinine Ratio Below 30 mg/g is a Predictor of Incident Hypertension and Cardiovascular Mortality

TL;DR: Low levels of albuminuria, UACR below 30 mg/g, are associated with increased risk of incident hypertension and CVD mortality at follow‐up, but are not associated withincreased risk of incidents of incident diabetes mellitus.

K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for chronic kidney disease: Evaluation, classification, and stratification

TL;DR: In the early 1990s, the National Kidney Foundation (K/DOQI) developed a set of clinical practice guidelines to define chronic kidney disease and to classify stages in the progression of kidney disease.

Measuring agreement in method comparison studies

TL;DR: The 95% limits of agreement, estimated by mean difference 1.96 standard deviation of the differences, provide an interval within which 95% of differences between measurements by the two methods are expected to lie.

Using standardized serum creatinine values in the modification of diet in renal disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate.

TL;DR: The MDRD Study equation has now been reexpressed for use with a standardized serum creatinine assay, allowing GFR estimates to be reported in clinical practice by using standardized serumcreatinine and overcoming this limitation to the current use of GFR estimating equations.

Association of estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in general population cohorts: a collaborative meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analysis of general population cohorts was conducted to assess the independent and combined associations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with mortality.
