Looking forward to #Nephpearls from #37VicenzaCourse 🇮🇹

Renal Functional Reserve
📌 The difference between the stress (peak) GFR achieved by stimulation & baseline GFR
📌 Identifies the capacity of the kidney to compensate/ increase its function in states of demand/ disease
#37VicenzaCourse 🇮🇹 #Nephpearls
👉🏼 karger.com/Article/Pdf/36…

AKI or kidney attack may damage a variable number of nephrons.
In a subject w/ intact RFR, up to 50% of the nephrons can be damaged without any clinical evidence of baseline GFR reduction or increase in creatinine.
#37VicenzaCourse 🇮🇹 #Nephpearls
👉🏼 karger.com/Article/Pdf/36…

Complete or partial recovery (from AKI) of renal function can be determined by the assessment of the RFR

Renal functional reserve testing can identify at-risk individuals for postoperative AKI ca. 2018

IgA Nephropathy: A 1st step is in treating IgA Nephropathy is assessing "prognosis" based on data available at the time of biopsy

@goKDIGO suggest using the "prediction tool" that was derived from the largest & most geographically diverse cohort to date

@goKDIGO

IgA Nephropathy: The @goKDIGO treatment algorithm recommends consideration of use of corticosteroids in patients with "persistent proteinuria >1g/day" if the risk/benefit profile is favorable

📌 A GFR of 30 is considered a threshold for treatment
