Litterally learnt this today as a first year medic doing some studying on a Saturday (ugh) but thank you so much mate! Really helped me! Notifs on so i get when u post (why im so early) lol.

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

I appreciate you so much!

The answer is 50? Inulin clearance = GFR = PV = Uv x Uc / Pc = 10ml/min (converted from 600ml/hr) x 100mg/dl / 20mg/dl = 50 ml/min

[@ketansingh5220]

Ain't inulin per ml in urine 5 times higher than that was in plasma hmmm

[@hyperionisalwaystaken]

Correct.

[@shinola228]

Excellent video. Very well explained.

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

Glad it was helpful!

Can you please keep posting the rest of the neurology lectures ? We starting neuro tomorrow 😁

@@MedicosisPerfectionalis Thanks man ! Love from Algeria ❤️🇩🇿

[@djkim23]

Thank you for an awesome video. Question- if one were to use creatinine levels in urine to calculate the eGFR, can this be done with a single urine sample? Or do you need to collect urine over 24 hr period like with Inulin? (I ask because most urine tests ordered by doctors are a single urine event. How can a patient calculate eGFR from a single urine sample?)

[@IVYMAZVITAMATIMATI]

medicine is now making sense because i understand the flip am talking about thank you medicosis

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

My pleasure!

[@vince1229]

If a bodybuilder on creatine supplements has a eGFR of 56 and a cystatin C GFR of 112 is there anything to worry about?

[@vince1229]

Can training induced low heart rates affect eGFR? Google can't understand a simple question.

[@ohboy7790]

is creatine monohydrate powder at 3.5 grams a day harmful to healthy adult male or female kidneys?

[@fofo8760]

God bless you ❤

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

You too!

[@zakariaali4017]

( 12:55 ) you said INSULIN instead of INULIN . Best Regards, Sherlock Holmes

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

You're correct!

[@adlyaboamra8753]

i haven't watched the lecture yet, but it seems to be an excellent lecture

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

I appreciate you!

@@MedicosisPerfectionalis I have a friend who lives in another country and he suffers from diabetes. He promised me to buy diabetes lectures, and I am waiting for his presence so that we can buy them for him and learn about a suitable treatment for him through the lecture.
