    The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in men and 90–120 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases. After age 40, GFR ...

    Out of the 1,374,392 female deaths reported in the US in 2017, kidney disease was listed as the cause of death for 24,889 women and was reported as the 9th overall cause of death for women in 2017. [45] Out of the 1,439,111 male deaths reported in the US in 2017, kidney disease was not listed in the top 10 causes of death. [45]

  5. Chronic kidney disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_kidney_disease

    Hypocalcemia results from 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D 3 deficiency (caused by high FGF-23 and reduced kidney mass) [30] and the skeletal resistance to the calcemic action of parathyroid hormone. [31] Osteocytes are responsible for the increased production of FGF-23, which is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme 1-alpha-hydroxylase (responsible for the ...

  6. Augmented renal clearance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_renal_clearance

    The primary sign of augmented renal clearance is an increase in the creatinine clearance well above that which would be considered normal. Commonly, ARC is defined as a creatinine clearance of greater than 130 mL/min, but the effects of increased clearance on therapy are not directly correlated to a specific number.

    EGFR may refer to: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a transmembrane receptor protein in humans; Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a measure of ...

  8. Body surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_surface_area

    In physiology and medicine, the body surface area (BSA) is the measured or calculated surface area of a human body.For many clinical purposes, BSA is a better indicator of metabolic mass than body weight because it is less affected by abnormal adipose mass.

    In the 1950s it could hold 6 x M20 ammo cans (3 per horizontal cardboard carton with spacers) or 3 x M21 ammo cans (3 per vertical cardboard carton with spacers). The former stored small arms ammunition in cartons or bandoleers while the latter was usually used to hold linked caliber .50 and 20 mm ammo.
