Chronic Kidney Disease VS Diabetic Nephropathy

STAGES OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE


STAGES OF DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY

please refer to other way to stage diabetic nephropathy
based on clinical practice guideline.



Learning Issue : How to calculate GFR?

Cockcroft-Gault Equation

A commonly used surrogate marker for estimate of creatinine clearance is the Cockcroft-Gault formula, which in turn estimates GFR:It is named after the scientists who first published the formula, and it employs serum creatinine measurements and a patient's weight to predict the creatinine clearance. The formula, as originally published, is:

When serum creatinine is measured in µmol/L:

Where Constant is 1.23 for men and 1.04 for women.

One interesting feature of the Cockcroft and Gault equation is that it shows how dependent the estimation of CCr is based on age. The age term is (140 - age). This means that a 20-year-old person (140-20 = 120) will have twice the creatinine clearance as an 80-year old (140-80 = 60) for the same level of serum creatinine (120 is twice as great as 60). The C-G equation also shows that a woman will have a 15% lower creatinine clearance than a man at the same level of serum creatinine

Thanks to Dr Ngiu for asking us to compare between CKD and diabetic nephropathy.

I think you should get the other Cockcroft-Gault Equation, as the conversion unit used in UKMMC for serum creatinine is in mmol/L while the one shown is in mg/dL. You wouldn't wanna get a wrong calculation with the wrong SI unit..

It should be:

where the constant is 1.23 for Male and 1.04 for females.

Cure for Herpes Virus
Its a great pleasure for me to write this testimony about how I got my Genital Herpes cured within a month. I have been reading so many comments of some people who were cured from various diseases by Dr Oduku Paul herbal medicine but I never believed them. I was hurt and depressed so I was too curious and wanted to try DR. Oduku then i contacted him through his email, he assured me 100% that he will cure me, I pleaded with him to help me out. My experience with him was great. He sent me his herbal medicine and prescribed the usage of the herbal medicine. He asked me to go for a medical check up after two weeks of usage. I agreed with him I took this herbal medicine as instructed by him and went for a check up, to my greatest surprise my result was negative, I am really happy that I am cured and healthy again. I have waited for a month to be very sure I was completely cured before writing this testimony. I did another blood test one week ago and it was still Herpes negative, with no trace of the virus on my blood so I guess its time I recommend him to anyone suffering from Herpes Virus. contact Dr. Oduku Paul through his official email address: odukuherbalremedies@gmail.com
He has herbal cure for Diabetes, Hepatitis, Cancer, Heart diseases and Liver diseases.
