Abstract

Although primarily a mental health disorder, anorexia nervosa (AN) has many physical consequences. Among them, the consequences on kidney function are often underestimated. We evaluated renal function in adolescent AN inpatients and investigated the correlation between the GFR and intrinsic patient characteristics. A single-center retrospective study was conducted on 51 patients hospitalized for the restrictive type of AN in 2013. Data were divided into: (1) medical history of AN; (2) growth parameters and vital signs upon admission; and (3) blood tests. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated using the Cockroft-Gault, MAYO Clinical Quadratic (MCQ), Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD), and Schwartz equations. The calculated percentages of patients with a GFR below 90 mL/min/1.73 m(2) according to the different equations were as follows: Cockroft-Gault, 45%; MDRD, 28%; CKD-EPI, 14%; MCQ, 12%, and Schwartz, 4%. There was a strong association between the body mass index (BMI) and the GFR according to all equations (p < 0.0001). The lowest heart rate was significantly associated with a reduced GFR according to the Cockroft-Gault equation (p = 0.03). The GFR values did not differ significantly after rehydration. Clinicians should evaluate AN patients for renal complications, especially when the BMI and heart rate are very low. Dehydration was not solely responsible for renal impairment. Level III, single-center retrospective cohort study.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 May 2017.
All research outputs
#16,051,091
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Eating and Weight Disorders - Studies on Anorexia, Bulimia and Obesity
#604
of 1,126 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#186,344
of 327,127 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Eating and Weight Disorders - Studies on Anorexia, Bulimia and Obesity
#15
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,126 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.2. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 327,127 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
