Popis: Studies of the impact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on renal function have shown mixed results. We constructed this prospective repeated-measures controlled study to characterize this response and identify the best method of gauging renal function in this setting. Clinical data, serum creatinine (SC), and 24-h urine were collected 1 week before and 6 months following RYGB. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated utilizing the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula. Creatinine clearance (CCL) was measured as a 24-h collection (24CCL) and calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) formula. The study population of 37 patients (81% women) had a mean age of 47 ± 11 years, had mean BMI of 47.6 ± 6.3 kg/m2, and achieved a mean % excess weight loss (EWL) of 60.9 ± 17.1%. SC decreased from 0.83 ± 0.21 mg/dl to 0.72 ± 0.16 mg/dl (p
