Pituitary-gonadal control of creatinine metabolism.
… by observing changes in the elimination of creatinine in urine, for this urinary creatinine is regarded as an index of endogenous protein metabolism, and the amount excreted is remarkably constant from day to day.

Studies in the physiology of creatine and creatinine
… cover a wide portion of the field of creatine-creatinine metabolism. They involve a consideration of the problem of the origin of creatine, of the endocrine factors controlling its metabolism, and of the function of creatine and creatinine in the body. In order to obtain a true perspective of …

A Model to Predict 24-Hour Urinary Creatinine Level Using Repeated Measurements
Creatinine is a metabolic waste product, removed from the blood by the kidneys, and excreted in the urine. The measurement of creatinine is used in the assessment and monitoring of many medical conditions as well as in the determination or adjustment of absorbed dosage of pesticides. Earlier models …

The Novel Function of Creatinine Acting as an Anti-Inflammatory Immunomodulator and Antioxidant
… a strenuous workout. CR hydrolyzes into creatinine (CRN) rapidly. Previous work from the laboratory has shown in vitro that CRN has some immunomodulatory properties. To further delineate the immunomodulatory properties of CRN, we used real time-polymerase chain reaction and …

Diurnal and daily variation in creatinine excretion among preadolescent girls consuming three levels of dietary protein
… the experiment and analyzed for nitrogen and creatinine. On the third day of each period, urine was collected from 8 - 12 a.m., 12 - 4 p.m., and 8 p.m. - 8 a.m. The mean amounts of creatinine excreted daily by subjects consuming 30, 60, and 90 grams of protein differs significantly at the 1% …

Clinical, pharmacokinetic, and genetic determinants of change in serum creatinine among Southern Africans on dolutegravir based antiretroviral therapy
Introduction: Dolutegravir increases serum creatinine by inhibiting renal secretion of creatinine, potentially resulting in inappropriate regimen switches. We investigated determinants of early changes in serum creatinine in a Southern African cohort starting dolutegravir-based antiretroviral …

Measurement of Pre and Postprandial Urine Calcium to Creatinine Ratio to Identify Calcium Oxalate Urolithiasis in Miniature Schnauzers
The intent of this research is to identify a simple diagnostic test to detect abnormal calciuresis and predict calcium oxalate (CaOx) urolith presence in Miniature Schnauzers. We investigated the impact of postprandial time on the specificity of urine calcium:creatine (UCa/Cr) in identifying …

The Effect of Withdrawal of Angiotensin II Blockers on Serum Creatinine and Potassium in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
… cause hyperkalemia and the elevation of serum creatinine which impede the continuation of the medications. So far, there have been no data which observe the changes of serum creatinine or serum potassium after withdrawal of the RAS blockers. In addition, no guidelines have been established …

Microalbuminuria and serum creatinine in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients attending renal clinic at university teaching hospital in Lusaka,Zambia
… the association between Micro-albuminuria, Serum Creatinine and fasting blood glucose in type 2 diabetes mellitus in patients attending Renal Clinic at University Teaching Hospital (UTH).This was an unmatched case control study involving 90 participants from UTH Renal Clinic. The cases included 45 …

The Relationship Between Exercise-Induced Delayed Muscle Soreness and The Excretion of Urine Metabolites and Creatinine, 3-Methylhistidine and Hydroxyproline
The urine excretion of creatinine (CRE), 3-methylhistidine (3MH), and hydroxyproline (OHP) were investigated as indices of muscle damage associated with exercise-induced delayed muscle soreness (DMS). Subjects (n = 28) maintained meat-free diets for six days. Twenty-four hour urine volumes were …

Probabilistic modeling of kidney dynamics for renal failure prediction
… conditions as well. It is known that serum creatinine follows first-order clearance kinetics. We developed a stochastic kinetic model for first-order clearance and used it to model creatinine kinetics. Some properties implied by the model that are verifiable with the available data are …

Renal disease in systemic lupus erythematosus: correlation of morphology with clinical course
… race, time from diagnosis to biopsy, serum urea, creatinine, creatinine clearence and urinary 24 hour protein. Using the latest serum urea, creatinine, creatinine clearence and / or 24 hour urinary protein where available, outcome was graded as: 1: An improvement in renal function 2: A stable …

Statistical analysis of renal function in patients with cancer
… based on patient de- mographics and serum creatinine levels, a new model, CamGFR, was developed that is more accurate than other currently available models for GFR. Following this, data from a further 7,944 patients were collected across nine cancer centres. These data enabled the …

The relationship between reduced renal function and cardiovascular disease
… sodium channel (NORDIL). In study 1 we tested creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) with Cockroft-Gault (CG) and the MDRD equations and also microalbuminuria (MA) as predictors of CVD, stroke and CVD death. In Study 2 we tested cystatin C and compared it to eGFR estimated with …

Observing Renal Responses to Endurance Cycling in the Heat
… were taken pre- and post-event. Serum creatinine was measured by colorimetric assay and analyzed via the Jaffe reaction, and creatinine clearance was estimated. An ELISA kit was used to measure serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin. RESULTS: A net fluid loss of 1.3 ± 1.1 kg …
