  • Title: [A simple method for the prediction of the time of onset of uremia in patients with chronic kidney failure].
    Author: Kleint V, Stradtmann H.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1978 Nov 01; 33(21):789-92. PubMed ID: 735252.
    Abstract:
    Following a method described by Mitch and co-workers in patients with chronic retention of substances normally contained in the urine the reciprocal values of serum creatinine determinations were figured in the long-term course. Of 22 patients 20 showed an extensively linear decrease of 1/creatinine in the period, independently on the fact, whether a pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis or cystic kidneys were the basis disease. The correlation calculation confirms with a mean correlation coefficient of 0.842 in a dispersion of +/- 0.106 the connection mentioned so that possibilities of the prognosis for the moment of the dialysis and for an objective judgment of the therapeutic success are outlined.
