Association of genetic and Biochemical markers with GFR among renal failure patients: Applying Serum Creatinine and Cystatin C measures
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
To assess the association of genetic and Biochemical markers with GFR among renal failure patients. The method in chronic kidney disease (CKD) was evaluated depending on GFR calculation using Serum Creatinine and Cystatin C equations, using the standardized definition from the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative of the National Kidney Foundation (K/DOQI) practice guideline. The results in this study the means ± SD for GFR ml/min/1.73 m2 using creatinine and statin C were 19.8163 ±1.3068 and 19.6122±1.2461, respectively. Of the 103 patients, 50/103 (48.5%), 33/103(32%) and 20/103 (19.5%) were with GRF levels <15, 16-30 and 31+, respectively. In conclusion Patients with CKD or renal failure have a diverse biochemical values which necessitate the urgent need for implantation of health strategies that can assist in the control of the disease and management of patients with disease. Keywords: CKD, KSA, renal failure, GFR.
