  • Title: [Acute oral protein administration in the diagnosis of kidney function and causal pathogenetic correlations].
    Author: Wüstenberg PW, Nitschke FP, Sponholz F, Chol H, Klinkmann H.
    Journal: Z Urol Nephrol; 1988 Jun; 81(6):401-12. PubMed ID: 3063013.
    Abstract:
    In a literature review it was reported on the performance-orientated diagnostic determination of the glomerular filtration rate by acute oral protein load in man. Recommendations to the standardization of the test realisation are presented. The results of the glomerular filtration reserve--being derived from acute intraindividual changes of the creatinine short-term clearance after an oral protein load--are described in dependence on the renal starting situation. The causal-pathogenetic relations are represented in consideration of the natriuretic hormone and of the pathophysiological model character of the GFR-provocation test to hormonal starting processes, respectively.
