Assuming the average person clears about 1 mg creatinine into their urine per minute (480 mg / min) and 113.12 g / mol creatinine (thus 480 mg / 1000 mg / g and divided by the molar mass, multipled by 1000 to convert mol to mmol, yielding an average excretion of 4.24 mmol
creatinine in 8 hours), I calculate that just under 50 mmol TMAO / mol creatinine, as shown in Fig 2b of the Nature Medicine paper converts to 212 umol / 8 h (50 mmol TMAO / mol creatinine * 1 mol creatinine / 1000 mmol creatinine * 4.24 mmol creatinine / 8 hours * 1000 umol / TMAO / mol TMAO).

creatinine levels and a doubling of the rate of hyperkalemia (high potassium concentration
in the blood), but conversely led to reduced hypokalemia (low potassium concentration
in the blood).
When
creatinine levels are elevated
in the blood of a kidney transplant recipient, it is an indication that the transplanted kidney is not functioning well.
«Our study shows that when the
creatinine level is elevated
in the blood of a kidney transplant recipient, use of our urine test would differentiate the common causes of kidney dysfunction that led to the elevation
in creatinine, hence benefiting many patients by allowing them to avoid the need for an invasive needle biopsy,» said Dr. Muthukumar.
Liver - transplant lists are ordered according to the severity of the liver disease based on a «MELD» score, which factors
in creatinine levels, bilirubin levels, and INR (a measurement of how quickly blood clots).
He also had extremely high levels of
creatinine (a by - product of the breakdown of phosphocreatine, an energy - storage molecule
in muscle) normally eliminated by the kidneys and extremely elevated levels of BUN (blood urea nitrogen), which measures the amount of the waste product urea (a by - product of protein digestion).
The researchers performed genomic analyses of mice with kidney damage and those with dehydration and a similar rise
in creatinine levels.
They looked for biomarkers to distinguish between kidney damage and a transient condition, both of which activate a rise
in the
creatinine blood test.
