Gastric Bypass Surgery and Measured and Estimated GFR in Women

Abstract: Summary Obesity causes hyperfiltration. Patients lose a substantial amount of weight after bariatric surgery. This weight loss includes a decrease in muscle mass, as evidenced by a decrease in creatinine excretion. Hyperfiltration also improves but is not detected by changes in serum creatinine due to concurrent decreases in creatinine generation.

“… 33 Mean unindexed mGFR significantly decreased from 153 to 123 ml/min, but because body surface area (BSA) also decreased from 2.33 m 2 to 1.93 m 2 , there was no change in mGFR indexed to BSA (114 to 110 ml/min/1.73 m 2 ). Similar findings have been seen in other studies measuring GFR or creatinine clearance in individuals with preserved kidney function 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39. Since nephron number is fixed at birth, a decrease in unindexed GFR in this high range may be interpreted as improvement in single nephron glomerular hyperfiltration 34, 40.…”

“…In addition, we cannot exclude the hypothesis that differences in LBM may cause differences in mGFR. 10 Overall, these results provide an explanation for the novel finding in MESA-Kidney 4 and contribute to the body of knowledge about the role of indexing and adjusting mGFR by measures of body size and composition. Further study is necessary to determine the usefulness of adjusting mGFR by LBM in clinical practice.…”

“…However, this effect can be jeopardized by the concomitant loss of muscle mass. Indeed, studies have reported that PCr‐based GFR estimation after weight loss overestimates renal function . Hence, the relevance of GFR indexation for the comparison of renal function after weight loss has been questioned .…”
