Title: Urinary fibrinogen degradation products and differential protein clearances in renal disease. Author: Blainey JD, Terry JM. Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1979 Mar; 11(3):140-1. PubMed ID: 436342. Abstract: The close correlation observed between urine concentration of fibrinogen degradation products and differential protein clearances in the proteinuria of renal disease has been confirmed. Heavy proteinuria in excess of 5 g/l however leads to raised FDP levels, irrespective of the selectivity of the protein clearance. A correction factor for proteinuria enables an accurate estimate of protein clearance from a single measurement of urine FDP.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
