Description

Creatinine is the end product of creatine, which is a natural substance found in muscle tissue. Creatinine levels are used to measure how well the kidneys are functioning. Creatinine is also a component of total protein and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Creatinine has been shown to have a positive effect on HIV-infected patients by stimulating the production of colony-stimulating factor, which helps to build up the immune system. Creatinine can be detected in blood samples using an enzyme activity assay or it can be measured using creatinine assays that use skin cells or biological samples. Creatinine levels are also used to diagnose conditions such as kidney dysfunction, liver disease, and heart failure. Creatinine levels may also be used to help predict prognosis for untreated group p2 with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) less than 60ml/min per 1.73m2 body surface area.
