  • Title: Fallibility of plasma urea and creatinine as indices of renal function in diarrhoeic calves treated with conventional or nutritional oral rehydration solutions.
    Author: Brooks HW, Gleadhill A, Wagstaff AJ, Michell AR.
    Journal: Vet J; 1997 Jul; 154(1):35-9. PubMed ID: 9265851.
    Abstract:
    Changes in plasma urea, creatinine and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were measured in calves before and after development of diarrhoea and during treatment with a conventional (WHO-type) or a nutritional oral rehydration solution (ORS). Changes in urea and creatinine failed to represent the extent of pre-renal failure. The two ORSs differed in their impact on GFR with the nutritional ORS improving GFR whereas with the WHO-type solution it deteriorated further.
