Vad är GFR?

Den glomerulära filtrationshastigheten, GFR, är den volym primärurin som produceras per tidsenhet, motsvarande den plasmavolym som filtrerats under samma tid.

Mätning av renalt inulin-clearance = ”sanningen”

Vad är sanning?

Absolut sanning finns bara i himlen eller i Platons idévärld.

Vad är då den högsta vetenskapliga sanning som kan uppnås på jorden?

Olika metoder att mäta GFR jämförda med renalt inulinclearance

During 1979 - 1994 a total of eight articles on cystatin C as a GFR-marker were published, but only by the Lund group, possibly due to their use of a slow, manual method, enzyme-amplified single radial immunodiffusion, for analysis.

Serum cystatin C, determined by a rapid, automated particle-enhanced turbidimetric method is a better marker than serum creatinine for glomerular filtration rate

Advantages of cystatin C as a GFR-marker

Demonstrates the early, potentially reversible, decrease of GFR in the “creatinine-blind” area

Independent of diet

No tubular secretion

Low influence by muscle mass, gender and race (African American)

Independent of age for children and adults above 1 year

Demonstrates the decrease of GFR in old persons

Mirrors the diurnal GFR variation

Elucidates filtration quality and life expectancy

Disadvantages of cystatin C as a GFR-marker

High doses of corticosteroids increase significantly the

P-Cystatin C level (but not low doses e.g. ointments, inhalation)

Hyperthyreosis moderately increases the P-Cystatin C level (and decreases the P-Creatinine level due to increased tubular secretion)

The cost of analysing P-Cystatin C is higher than that of analysing P-Creatinine (prices in Lund 2011: 2 versus 1 Euro)

- Use international calibrators and commutability studies to equalize all methods

C Use of different mathematical models

- Use improved mathematical models

D Use of different study populations

- Identify the most important types of population

The cystatin C international calibrator,

ERM-DA471/IFCC, was released June 2010

Ongoing calibration work

4049 samples from patients with known GFR (iohexol clearance)

0.17 – 95 years of age

472 children below 18 years of age

1022 above 70 years of age

1943 with GFR > 60 ml/min/1.75 sqm

Use of four different commutable methods adjusted to the international calibrator for cystatin C (ERM-DA471/IFCC): Gentian, Siemens, Dako, Sentinel (Abbott)

Aims of ongoing calibration work

To arrive at method-independent cystatin C-based GFR prediction equations

To compare prediction equations for GFR above and below 60 ml/min/1.75sqm. Do we need separate equations?

To compare cystatin C-based GFR prediction equations for adults and children. Do we need separate equations?

To determine diagnostic performance at different GFR levels

P30%-värdet för en GFR-prediktions-ekvation anger det procenttal av alla estimeringar som faller inom +/- 30% av det uppmätta GFR (med invasiv “Gold Standard” clearance-metod). De bästa kreatinin- och cystatin C-baserade ekvationerna når P30%-värden på 85-90%. Ekvationer baserade på både cystatin C- och kreatinin-baserade ekvationer når P30%-värden på 90-95%.

Suggestion for optimal diagnostic use of eGFR

Run both cystatin C and creatinine and calculate eGFR(cystatin C) and eGFR(creatinine)

at the initial patient contact.

If they agree: GFR is correct, no invasive clearance determination is required.

If they do not agree: Try to find a biomedical explanation (low muscle mass, high dose of glucocorticoid). If an obvious explanation is found no invasive clearance determination is required. The non-affected eGFR is used.

P/S-Creatinine can be used to follow a “correct” eGFR as defined above.

If the two eGFRs do not agree and no obvious explanation for the difference can be found: An invasive clearance determination is justified (iohexol clearance).

It is more dangerous to have a reduced

eGFR(cystatin C) than a reduced eGFR(creatinine),

because you have a higher risk to die or develop end-stage renal disease.

Why?

It has been suggested that the inreased risk of having a reduced eGFR(cystatin C) compared to that of having a reduced eGFR(creatinine) is due to that not only reduced GFR, but also inflammation, increase the cystatin C level. This suggestion is based upon that some large cohort studies have shown a significant correlation between cystatin C and CRP levels.

Does systemic inflammation influence cystatin C?

20 persons with normal levels of CRP, SAA, orosomucoid and haptoglobin were subjected to elective surgery and the levels of these inflammatory markers and cystatin C and creatinine followed for 7 consecutive postoperative days
