This method is useful for evaluating glomerular filtration rate.
The stages of chronic kidney disease are determined by the glomerular filtration rate.
Inulin clearance is also used to estimate glomerular filtration rate.
This in turn leads to a smaller glomerular filtration rate, and on the whole, less water is transferred from the blood to the kidney.
Due to the low filtration rate, slow sand filters require extensive land area for a large municipal system.
Pumps rapidly recirculate water to maximize the filtration rate of this device.
Replacing red meat with a low protein or chicken diet can improve glomerular filtration rate.
They play an important role in maintaining the glomerular filtration rate despite fluctuations in blood pressure.
My glomerular filtration rate (a measure of kidney function) used to be 44, which was low for my age.
As a result, serum creatinine level is an indirect measure of glomerular filtration rate.
