Yeong Jee Kim, Keun Lee
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1986;29(7):723-729.   Published online July 31, 1986
In clinical practice, creatinine clearance(Ccr) remains the most commonly used laboratory assessment of glomerular function despite methodological and technical problems of urine collection. Schwartz et al. in 1976，reported that an accurate estimate of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) could be obtained from the simple determinations of plasma creatinine (Per) and body length(L):GFR(ml/min/1.73cm2)=k• L(cm)/Pcr(mg/100ml), (k=constant). The purpose of this investigation is to compare...
A Comparative Study on Serum Ferritin Concentrations in Anemic Patients Various Diseases.

For comparison of serum ferritin concentrations in anemic patients of various diseases, we measured serum ferritin concentrations, serum iron concentrations, total iron...
