Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is
one of the most common diseases requiring renal replacement
therapy.. Using patient records, this study investigated how
diabetes, blood pressure, sex, and use of angiotensin
converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors impacted glomerular
filtration rates (GFR) in ADPKD patients. We determined that
blood pressure, diabetes, and use of ACE inhibitors have an
impact on GFR.
