  • Title: Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation by Serum Creatinine or Serum Cystatin C in Preterm (<31 Weeks) Neonates.
    Author: Garg P, Hidalgo G.
    Journal: Indian Pediatr; 2017 Jun 15; 54(6):508-509. PubMed ID: 28667728.
    Abstract:
    Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated by serum creatinine (Schwartz's equation) and serum cystatin C (Filler's equation) in preterm neonates (24-31 weeks of gestation) in a prospective cohort study. Serum creatinine and cystatin C was obtained at birth and then every two weeks during the first month. We found a poor fit between two methods, and a steadier GFR assessment by cystatin C.
