3 wrz 2024 · Since that time, more and more older adults have been identified and labeled as having chronic kidney disease (CKD). Approximately one-half of adults over the age of 70 years have a measured or estimated GFR (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 [1], an advocated threshold to diagnose CKD [2].
2 wrz 2020 · The study found that between age 40 and 70, runners slowed by a linear rate of about one percent each year. When runners reached their late 70s, they began to decline by about 1.5 percent,...
The age-related decline in GFR is considered a physiological process after 30–40 years of age, with a more significant decline after the 70 s. With normal aging, nephron loss occurs and is detectable to some extent by the age-related decrease in GFR.
23 sie 2024 · Hypomagnesemia is defined as a serum magnesium concentration that is below the normal range (eg, less than 1.7 mg/dL in adults), which may vary among clinical laboratories. Hypomagnesemia can be induced by increased gastrointestinal losses or increased urinary magnesium excretion.
17 lis 2023 · The females had higher eGFR level and faster decline rate. In individuals younger than 70 years old, agreement between eGFR by CKD-EPI and FAS was good (ICC = 0.894–0.940 in males and 0.783–0.893 in females), with a mean difference of -4.0 ~ 4.7 in males and -6.0 ~ 5.4 in females.
13 lip 2022 · A calculation used to estimate how well your kidneys are filtering certain agents produced by your body, such as: creatinine (a waste product that comes from the normal wear and tear on muscles) cystatin C (a protein that slows down the breakdown of other protein cells)
22 lis 2018 · Over 10% of prospective donors older than 60 years had a mGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m 2, and our model suggests that the lower limit of the normal range for GFR drops to 60 mL/min/1.73m 2 by the age of 50 and 55 years for females and males, respectively, meeting the GFR cut-off in the current definition of chronic kidney disease (CKD) .
