Canadian society of nephrology commentary on the KDIGO clinical practice guideline for CKD evaluation and management
2015, American Journal of Kidney DiseasesCitation Excerpt :Some have recommended that people in GFR category G3a without associated markers of kidney damage (albuminuria or hematuria) should not necessarily be considered to have CKD and should be considered for further evaluation and referral according to the clinical judgment of the health care provider.9,12 Labeling people as having CKD has important implications, including insurance problems.13-15 We recommend that in patients with estimated GFR (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, urine protein assessment (ACR, PCR, or a dipstick) and a repeat measurement of kidney function be undertaken.
Risk assessment and screening for violence
2011, European PsychiatryScreening for risk of cardiovascular disease is not associated with mental distress. The Inter99 study
2009, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :In spite of the widespread use of health screening, few studies have dealt with this potential consequence of screening programs. The 70's and 80's reports indicated that screening for coronary artery risk factors was associated with a higher degree of distress than observed in controls (Bloom and Monterosa, 1981; Haynes et al., 1978; MacDonald et al., 1984; Rudd et al., 1986; Stoate, 1989). This was followed by neutral results in the 90's (Christensen, 1995; Connelly et al., 1998; Meland et al., 1996; Rose and Bengtsson, 1996) and one study even found a positive effect of screening (Marteau et al., 1996), but also a general distaste of being reminded of the risk of heart disease (Meland et al., 1996).
