After the publication of our paper Lin et al. “Determinants of the creatinine clearance to glomerular filtration rate ratio in patients with chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study” BMC Nephrology 2013, 14:268, we became aware of errors in the manuscript arising from to a misunderstanding of serum creatinine calibration in the released Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) study data obtained from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) Data Repository. Specifically further multiplication by 0.95 was actually not necessary to arrive at the standardized creatinine values.
Here we present the revised results of the re-analyses along with revisions of the relevant tables. Mean CrCl/iGFR ratio should be 1.13 ± 0.46 instead of 1.19 ± 0.48. The main conclusion of the paper remain unchanged: “Contrary to what had been suggested by prior smaller studies, CrCl/GFR ratio does not vary with degree of proteinuria or race/ethnicity. The ratio is also closer to 1.0 than reported by several frequently cited reports in the literature.”
Under Abstract Results: it should read “Mean CrCl/iGFR ratio was 1.13 ± 0.46. There was no association between the CrCl/iGFR ratio and urine albumin (coefficient 0.10 [95% CI −0.01 - 0.21] for higest verus lowest levels of albuminuria, p = 0.07). Also, there was no association between race/ethnicity and CrCl/iGFR ratio (coefficient for non-Hispanic blacks was −0.03 [95% CI −0.08 - 0.03] compared with whites, p = 0.38).”
Under Subjects and Methods Measures of Kidney Function: it should read “Serum creatinine measurements were done in the CRIC central laboratory at University of Pennsylvania on the Hitachi Vitros 950 and then calibrated to the IDMS-traceable standardized creatinine [15], [16], [17].”

Under Results: it should read “The mean (±standard deviation [SD]) CrCl was 52.1 ± 25.8 mL/min/1.73 m2 and mean iGFR 48.0 ± 19.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Table 1). Mean CrCl/iGFR ratio was 1.13 ± 0.46 and median CrCl/iGFR ratio was 1.09 (with interquartile range [IQR] 0.88 - 1.32).” and “The only other factors associated with the CrCl/iGFR ratio were the use of loop diuretics (associated with higher CrCl/iGFR ratio of 0.08, p = 0.001)…” and “Additionally, CrCl/iGFR ratio in patients (N = 47) with serum albumin <3.0 g/dl was 1.15 ± 0.56 and that in with serum albumin ≥3.0 g/dl (N = 1260) was 1.13 ± 0.45 (p-value 0.89).”
Under Discussion: it should read: “In this well characterized cohort of CKD patients with mean measured GFR of 48 m/min/1.73 m2, we found that the mean CrCl/GFR ratio was 1.13.”
Scatter plot with a locally weighted scatterplot smoothing line showing that 24-hrs urinary albumin is not correlated with CrCl/iGFR(rs = 0.02,P = 0.40 by Spearman’s correlation test) (two outlier with CrCl/iGFR ratio of 6.40,0.04 were omitted)”And the corrected Figure has also been included.

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren.
Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.
Mit dem demographischen Wandel versorgt auch die Chirurgie immer mehr betagte Menschen. Von Entwicklungen wie Fast-Track können auch ältere Menschen profitieren und bei proximaler Humerusfraktur können selbst manche 100-Jährige noch sicher operiert werden.
