Marcadores hematológicos y bioquímicos para el diagnóstico precoz de bacteriemiascausadas por Enterobacteriaceae resistentes a los carbapenémicos
Haematological and biochemical markers for the early diagnosis of bacteremias caused bycarbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae

Cambios rev. méd; 20 (2), 2021
INTRODUCCIÓN. Las bacteriemias causadas por Enterobacteriaceae resistentes a carbapenémicos se asocian con altas tasas de mortalidad a diferencia de las bacteriemias causadas por Enterobacteriaceae sensibles a carbapenémicos. Los hallazgos clínicos y de laboratorio son importantes para determinar los...

Desempeño comparativo de ecuaciones de estimación de excreción urinaria de creatinina

Rev. méd. Chile; 149 (11), 2021
BACKGROUND: 24-hour urine collection accuracy is generally evaluated based on the values of urine creatinine (UCr) excretion, usually using ranges adjusted by weight. UCr excretion depends on several factors. Equations to estimate UCr in 24-hour collection (UCr/24h) that consider these factors have been ...

Biomarkers of renal function in preterm neonates at 72 h and 3 weeks of life

J. pediatr. (Rio J.); 97 (5), 2021
Abstract Objective: Serum levels of creatinine in neonates are quite variable and suffer interference from the immature kidney and maternal creatinine concentration. The aim of this study was to measure novel biomarkers of glomerular and tubular function in healthy preterm neonates at 72 h and 3 weeks o...

Correlación entre las ecuaciones para la estimación del filtrado glomerular (MDRD, CKD-EPI,) y la depuración de creatinina en orina de 24 horas en pacientes oncológicos

Demostrar la correlación entre las ecuaciones MDRD, CKD-EPI con la depuración de creatinina de 24 horas en pacientes oncológicos. Estudio transversal realizado en el Instituto Oncológico Nacional Dr Juan Tanca Marengo durante el periodo de tiempo comprendido entre el mes de agosto 2019 a agosto de 20...

Assessment of estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C in diabetic nephropathy

J. bras. nefrol; 43 (3), 2021
Abstract Introduction: GFR is estimated by using creatinine and cystatin C to determine renal dysfunction. Our aim was to evaluate estimated GFR (eGFR) based on cystatin C in type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods: Study group included 52 controls (46% male, age: 54.5±12.4) a...

Evolución del paciente quirúrgico grave con ventilación mecánica en cuidados intensivos, según valor de creatininuria
Evolution of critically ill surgical patient with mechanical ventilation in intensive care, according the urine creatinine value

Rev. cuba. med. mil; 50 (3), 2021
Introducción: El estado nutricional al ingreso influye en la evolución del paciente quirúrgico grave. La creatininuria, indicador de este estado, podría mostrar su posible asociación con la evolución de estos pacientes. Objetivos: Identificar la evolución de los pacientes quirúrgicos graves, con...

Prognostic nutritional index and the risk of acute kidney injury in patients with acute coronary syndrome

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE Recent studies have linked malnutrition with undesirable outcomes in cardiovascular diseases. However, the underlying mechanism is unknown. Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) increased cardiovascular mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study hypoth...

Association between severe chronic kidney disease defined by cystatin-c and creatinine and clinical outcomes in an elderly population - an observational study

J. bras. nefrol; 43 (2), 2021
ABSTRACT Introduction: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum cystatin-C (sCys) seems as accurate as when based on serum creatinine (sCr), but sCys seems a better predictor of adverse outcomes. We aimed to study whether sCys could be a reliable tool for the prediction of adverse out...
