Midterm eGFR and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: The Clinical Significance of Gestational Hyperfiltration
Although hemodynamic adaptation plays a crucial role in maintaining gestation, the clinical significance of midterm renal hyperfiltration (MRH) on pregnancy outcomes is unknown.

Summary: | Although hemodynamic adaptation plays a crucial role in maintaining gestation, the clinical significance of midterm renal hyperfiltration (MRH) on pregnancy outcomes is unknown.
This was an observational cohort study. Women with a singleton pregnancy and a serum creatinine measurement during their second trimester were followed at two university hospitals in Korea between 2001 and 2015. Those with substantial renal function impairment or who delivered during the second trimester were not considered. MRH was represented by the highest eGFR, which was calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration method. An adverse pregnancy event was defined by the composition of preterm birth (gestational age |
