2 GFR : Glomerular filtration rate GFR is widely accepted as the best index of kidney function in health and disease, and accurate values are needed for optimal decision making in many clinical settings Stevens LA & Levey AS, JASN 2009

4 Go AS et al, N Engl J Med 2004

5 GFR - SCr relationship : 1/SCr = SCr GFR = 27.0 GFR R = 0.86, P < n = 2626 age : 4 mo 88 yrs BSA : m 2 SCr : mg/dl R = 0.83, P < GFR : ml/min/1.73 m 2

16 egfr mgfr (ml/min/1.73 sqm) ANOVA, p< < >90 GFR (ml/min/1.73 sqm) The mean egfr mgfr differences over various GFR increments (<60, and 90 ml/min/1.73 m 2 ) Arsos G et al, EJNMMI 2006

17 Nephropathy in Diabetes Diabetes has become the most common single cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the U.S. and Europe; this is due to the facts that 1) diabetes, particularly type 2, is increasing in prevalence 2) diabetes patients now live longer 3) patients with diabetic ESRD are now being accepted for treatment in ESRD programs where formerly they had been excluded ADA, Diabetes Care 2004

18 In newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients, particularly those with a GFR >90 ml/min per 1.73m 2, both CG and MDRD equations significantly underestimate igfr. This highlights a limitation in the use of egfr in the majority of diabetic subjects outside the setting of chronic kidney disease. Chudleigh RA et al. Diabetes Care, 2007

19 In patients with type 2 diabetes, egfrcys do not currently provide better egfr than egfrcre. Iliadis F et al. Diabetologia, 2011

31 Methodologies for assessing emptying Gastric emptying scintigraphy = the gold standard 99m Tc-sulfur colloid and 111 In DTPA Solid/Liquid meals physiologic, quantitative, non-invasive 13 C-octanoate breath test 13 CO 2 in exhaled air // gastric emptying non-invasive, cost-effective, non-radioactive (MS, NMRS) - indirect, intact liver-lung function Ultrasonography emptying, transpyloric flow of liquid gastric contents accommodation in proximal stomach MRI differentiate : solid/liquid phases/gastric secretion/air SmartPill non-digestible capsule records luminal ph, temperature, pressure during gastrointestinal transit (gastric emptying time)

32 Comparison of gastric emptying measurement methodologies Samsom M et al, Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2009

33 Consensus Report on Gastric Emptying: What s Needed to Prevent Tarnishing a Gold Standard? Although gastric-emptying scintigraphy in most clinical practices is the gold standard for measuring gastric motility, there has been concern that it will lose its role to other competing modalities because of a lack of standardization Maurer A, J Nucl Med Technol 2008

34 percent gastric retention Assessment of gastric emptying using a low fat meal: establishment of international control values time (hours) median 95th percentile Gastric retention >10% at 4 h is indicative of delayed emptying Tougas G et al, Am J Gastrenterol 2000
