Popis: Background: High grade proteinuria in allograft glomerular diseases is concerned with the reduced function and shortened survival of kidney allograft. Monitoring changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by serum creatinine and cystatin C are the recommended methods for assessing the progression of kidney allograft function with proteinuria.
