The rationale is that urine samples with very low creatinine may provide inaccurate biomarker measurements and, further, that dividing the biomarker value by a small creatinine value may create an inaccurately elevated analyte value.
Thus, patients with a good long-term renal outcome, defined by a serum creatinine value of not more than 1.4 mg/dL after a follow-up of more than 5 years, experienced a prompt and dramatic drop in proteinuria after 3 and 6 months of therapy, and this was not the case in patients who later developed renal impairment.
ARF was defined as follows: in patients without pre-existing renal disease by a serum creatinine value ≥ 150 μmol/l; in patients with previous renal insufficiency by an increase in serum creatinine of ≥ 100% above baseline values.
Creatinine is often used to adjust urinary markers for variations in urine volume or dilution by dividing the biomarker value by the creatinine value [ 37].
Another 8 patients did not have a serum creatinine value available at D1 because they were already on RRT by that time.
All analyses of urinary trace elements included a urine creatinine value, which was used to express urinary trace element concentrations in terms of creatinine ratio.
As far as 3-MH and carnosine levels, since the correction by creatinine value did not greatly affect the result of 3-MH and carnosine levels whose concentrations were greatly differed between cetaceans and mice, these alterations would be due to physiological differences and not due to any artifacts.
Nineteen patients were included, and 14 patients could complete the 2 phases of the study (group 1: placebo first; n = 8 and group 2: octreotide first; n = 6) The end point of the study was to evaluate improvement in renal function as defined by a 20% decrease in serum creatinine value after a 4-day treatment as compared with baseline.
