Adolescents and young adults aged 14 to 25 years with glomerular disease present with distinct clinical profiles compared ...

The glomerulus consists of capillary tufts, a mesangial cell component and the Bowman capsule. The glomerular filtration barrier is composed of glomerular endothelial cells, a basement membrane, and ...

This study was carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and approved by the Institutional Review Board of Yonsei University Health System Clinical Trial Center. As the current study ...

Each kidney is made up of approximately one million glomeruli. These filter nitrogenous wastes (like urea and creatinine) from the blood, passing through the tuft of capillaries that make up a ...

Background The long-term trajectories of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and their relation to early proteinuria ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Older adults may have hyperfiltration with normal glomerular filtration rate calculation. GFR calculation may be ...

Patients with moderate to severe diabetic glomerulosclerosis had higher risks. The presence and severity of diabetic glomerulosclerosis appear to be important factors in the prognosis of patients with ...

Objectives: To assess the relationship between relative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) change and outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Study Design: This retrospective cohort ...

The glomeruli are tiny tubules that filter blood in the kidneys. Muscles produce a waste product called creatinine, which is removed from blood plasma by the kidneys during this glomerular filtration ...

Glomeruli is the tiny network of blood vessels, also known as the filtering unit of the kidneys. Glomerular disease affects the Glomeruli and disrupts the functioning of the organs. In an interview ...

This allows us to measure the water permeability (LpA) of a single isolated glomerulus (from animals and humans) by fixing the glomerulus in place using a suction micropipette and changing the osmotic ...

Glomerular cell biology is a core strength of the Bristol Renal group. We have an international reputation and numerous collaborations based on our unique conditionally immortalized cell lines. Our ...
