1.	Diabetic Nephropathies (Diabetic Nephropathy) 03/01/1993 - "We measured in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study the effect of a thromboxane synthase inhibitor (FCE 22178, 400 mg two or three times per day) on urinary excretion of thromboxane B2 and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha, glomerular filtration rate (measured as clearance of polyfructosan), effective renal plasma flow (clearance of para-aminohippuric acid), fractional clearances of albumin and immunoglobin G and the reabsorption rate of beta 2-microglobulin in 15 patients with type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic nephropathy. "
2.	Dilated Cardiomyopathy (Cardiomyopathy, Congestive) 04/01/2000 - "Plasma clearance of polyfructosan and extracellular body fluid distribution in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and after heart transplantation." 04/01/2000 - "The total extracellular fluid volume and distribution in plasma and interstitial spaces, and the microvascular permeability properties were studied in 16 nonedematous patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) due to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and 17 such patients who underwent heart transplantation (HT) by analyzing the 3-hour plasma disappearance curve of polyfructosan. "
3.	Body Weight (Weight, Body) 01/01/1984 - "Polyfructosan clearance of the UUO kidney was increased to a level significantly above the corresponding BUO value, 147 +/- 34 as compared to 101 +/- 8 microliters/min/100 g body weight. "
4.	Chronic Kidney Failure (Chronic Renal Failure) 04/01/1994 - "In 10 patients with chronic renal failure and a polyfructosan S clearance (CPFS): 1.91-12.70 ml/min (mean 5.68 ml/min) with a preserved residual diuresis (more than 1000 ml/24 hours) renal excretion of 22 amino acids by residual nephrons was investigated before and 12 hours after haemodialysis. " 07/01/1994 - "In 8 subjects with chronic renal failure treated conservatively the renal hippurate clearance (CHip), polyfructosan (CPF) and creatinine (Ccr) clearance was assessed. "
5.	Acute Kidney Injury (Acute Renal Failure) 01/01/1977 - "It is concluded that tubular leakage is not a feature of significance in the early phase of moderate acute renal failure, that ferrocyanide and inulin are reliable markers for the determination of nephron filtration rate and water reabsorption, and that the reduction in whole kidney inulin or polyfructosan clearance reflects primarily a reduction in glomerular filtration rate." 01/01/1977 - "Permeability to those substances most commonly used for filtration rate determination, polyfructosan, inulin and ferrocyanide, was estimated by measuring their recoveries following perfusion through various nephron segments in haeme pigment, ischaemic and nephrotoxic models of acute renal failure.
