Abstract:A spot urine creatinine-to-osmolality ratio (sUCr/Osm) is proposed as a surrogate of the urinary excretion rate of creatinine (Cr) and convenient for forecasting serum Cr (SCr) trends. The lower the sUCr/Osm, the lower the excreted Cr amount accompanied by per unit of osmoles, the higher the risk of Cr accumulation. For exploring the reference intervals of sUCr/Osm in general adults, a cross-sectional analysis was performed on a subset of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
