Scientist develop new equation for detecting hyperfiltration that incorporates age but not body surface area. Read more!

Glomerular capillaries have unique adaptations allowing their walls to function as a biological sieve known as the glomerular filtration barrier. This enables the kidneys to fulfil their primary role ...

The presence of albumin in the urine is one indicator, as is glomerular filtration rate (GFR). In diabetic nephropathy, albuminuria first appears, leading to excessive filtration and eventually a ...

The present case and others in the literature indicate that the presence of hydronephrosis, even if associated with no apparent glomerular filtration ... indicate that pressure on the renal ...
