Nice Sir, which is better for assessment in non-diabetic CKD? UPCR or UACR? Nice self assessment score I come under 0-2 as per it, but if I go by this I should not be having CKD. My case doesn't fit into it

Nice Sir, it covers all. In my March report all these tests were done. I am sharing in order CBC Hb : 11 ( Watch) Total WBC: 653k ( Normal) Platelet: 135k ( Watch) MCV: 89.2 ( Normal) RBC: 360k ( Watch) Iron Studies Ferritin: 115 mgdl ( Normal) ( after Orofer xt) Serum Iron: 78 mgdl ( Normal) TSAT: 37 ( Normal) TIBC: 261 ( Normal) Folate+ B12 B12: 770 ( normal ) after Methylcobalamin 1500 MCG Folate: 17 ngml (normal only in November tested after orofer xt so med effect) Homocysteine: 22 ( watch) again November tested HbA1c: Hba1c: 4.6 ( Normal) Fasting Glucose: never did, but I guess should be normal Post meal Glucose: never did, but I guess should be normal considering Hba1c is normal. Dipstick Dipstick Protein: -ve as on date Dipstick Glucose: -ve as on date Dipstick Blood: -ve as on date Specific Gravity: 1.006 UPCR ( Spot, no 24 hrs) : 0.347 in March ( I think spot is overestimating in my case because of denominator) UACR: never had ANCA/ANA: -ve Serum Electrophoresis: Polyclonal expansion of Gamma Globulins. No M Spike seen ( Don't know if it is serious) TSH/T4: 1.6 Renal Ultrasound says mild echogenicity seen in both Kidneys, no Hydronephrosis seen, no Calculas, Corticomedullary medullary differentiantion is maintained. ( I will get another one) Vit D 25 OH Vit D: 60 ngdl ( normal in March) now might be down Corrected Calcium: 9.2 mgdl ( normal) Correct Phosphorus: 4.5 mgdl ( normal but little high side) IPth: 131.4 pgml ( worry) this has been serious headache 😭 KFT Serum Creatinine: 2 mgdl ( worry) Urea: 27 mgdl ( Normal) Uric Acid: 8.2 ( Watch to Worry) eGFR: 42-45 ( 3a to 3b) ( Serious Worry 😭) Sodium: 131 ( Watch) March tested Potassium: 5.0 ( Normal, high side) Chloride: 99 ( Normal) Bicarbonate: 21 ( Watch) Lipid Profile: Had in November HDL: 35 ( watch to worry) LDL: 61 ( Normal) Triglycerides: 102(Normal) Total Cholesterol: 113( Normal)

@Arjun Sabharwal can Kidney size increase? His kidney size increased as per both ss of 2020 & 2026. I will get another ultrasound done.

@Arjun Sabharwal Sir, his ss suggest in 2020 left kidney is 9.9 and now left is 11.5+ cm. This looks big difference. In my case, radiologist had written Spleen Enlarged 13.8, but Hematologist ruled it out. I think I should get it checked again for kidney.
CKD Stage Criteria
Trying to understand CKD stages—is it based only on creatinine levels, or are there other key factors involved? What stage might someone be in with a creatinine level of 2.2?

More important is UPCR and UACR, because they explain progression of disease especially for 1st, 2nd and 3rd stage. Nephrologists use Creatinine as marker for Kidney assessment. There is another test Cystatin C, good for gym goers. Both decide eGFR ( which is estimated). eGFR is calculated based on Gender, Age, Serum Creatinine/Cystatin C and earlier it had race too but new formula has excluded race part. Doctors can explain this better. You can calculate it: https://www.kidney.org/professionals/gfr_calculator https://davita.com/tools/gfr-calculator/
