   Chronic kidney disease after acute kidney injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

   Kidney international·2012·n=100200 influential citations

   Acute kidney injury may increase the risk for chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. In an attempt to summarize the literature and provide more compelling evidence, we conducted a systematic review comparing the risk for CKD,…

2. 02

   Chronic kidney disease and mortality risk: a systematic review.

   Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN·2006200 influential citations

   Current guidelines identify people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as being at high risk for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Because as many as 19 million Americans may have CKD, a comprehensive summary of this risk would be…

3. 03

   Chronic kidney disease as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: a pooled analysis of community-based studies.

   Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN·2004·n=22,634200 influential citations

   Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health problem. Conflicting evidence exists among community-based studies as to whether CKD is an independent risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. After subjects with a baseline…

4. 04

   Discovery and validation of cell cycle arrest biomarkers in human acute kidney injury.

   Critical care (London, England)·2013·n=744200 influential citations

   <h4>Introduction</h4>Acute kidney injury (AKI) can evolve quickly and clinical measures of function often fail to detect AKI at a time when interventions are likely to provide benefit. Identifying early markers of kidney damage has been…

5. 05

   Fibroblast growth factor 23 and risks of mortality and end-stage renal disease in patients with chronic kidney disease.

   JAMA·2011·n=3,879200 influential citations

   <h4>Context</h4>A high level of the phosphate-regulating hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is associated with mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease, but little is known about its relationship with adverse outcomes…

6. 06

   Comparison of risk prediction using the CKD-EPI equation and the MDRD study equation for estimated glomerular filtration rate.

   JAMA·2012·n=1,000200 influential citations

   <h4>Context</h4>The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation more accurately estimates glomerular filtration rate (GFR) than the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation using the same…

7. 07

   Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate and higher albuminuria are associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. A collaborative meta-analysis of high-risk population cohorts.

   Kidney international·2011200 influential citations

   Screening for chronic kidney disease is recommended in people at high risk, but data on the independent and combined associations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality…

8. 08

   Lower estimated GFR and higher albuminuria are associated with adverse kidney outcomes. A collaborative meta-analysis of general and high-risk population cohorts.

   Kidney international·2011·n=11,144200 influential citations

   Both a low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria are known risk factors for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). To determine their joint contribution to ESRD and other kidney outcomes, we performed a meta-analysis of nine…

9. 09

   Prevalence of chronic kidney disease in population-based studies: systematic review.

   BMC public health·2008·n=65,181200 influential citations

   <h4>Background</h4>Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming a major public health problem worldwide. This article reviews the published evidence of prevalence of CKD in population-based study samples that used the standardized definition…

    KDOQI US commentary on the 2012 KDIGO clinical practice guideline for acute kidney injury.

    American journal of kidney diseases : the official journal of the National Kidney Foundation·2013200 influential citations

    In response to the recently released 2012 KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) clinical practice guideline for acute kidney injury (AKI), the National Kidney Foundation organized a group of US experts in adult and pediatric…
