Plasma Methylguanidine and Creatinine Concentrations in Cats with Experimentally Induced Acute Renal Failure

[摘要] References(13)Cited-By(2)Plasma methylguanidine (MG) and creatinine (CRN) concentrations were measured in 11 cats with experimentally induced acute renal failure by a two-stage surgical procedure. According to the progression of renal failure, both plasma MG and CRN levels increased. A significant positive correlation (y=0.187X-0.379, γ=0.9176, P<0.001) was found between plasma MG and CRN levels. These results suggested that the increase in plasma MG level was an available indicator for uremic status in cats.
