Therefore, kidney (left\/right) to be procured should be determined after considering the difficulty of DN, as well as the preservation of remnant renal function (RRF). In this prospective study, we investigated the roles of computed tomography volumetry (CTV) in split renal function (SRF) and established a predictive model for RRF in LKDs.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We assessed 103 LKDs who underwent DN at our institute. The Volume Analyzer SYNAPSE VINCENT image analysis system were used as CTV. RRF was defined as the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 12\u2009months after DN. The association between various factors measured by CTV and RRF were investigated, and a role of CTV on prediction for RRF was assessed.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The median age and the preoperative eGFR were 58\u2009years and 80.7\u2009mL\/min\/1.73m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>, respectively. Each factor measured by CTV showed an association with RRF. The ratio of remnant renal volume to body surface area (RRV\/BSA) could predict RRF. In addition, RRV\/BSA could predict RRF more accurately when used together with age and 24-h creatinine clearance (CrCl).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Our findings suggest that RRV\/BSA measured by CTV can play an important role in predicting RRF, and a comprehensive assessment including age and CrCl is important to determine the kidney to be procured.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12882-021-02568-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,6]],"date-time":"2021-11-06T19:02:49Z","timestamp":1636225369000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Remnant renal volume can predict prognosis of remnant renal function in kidney transplantation donors: a prospective observational study"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Shunta","family":"Hori","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9242-7877","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nobumichi","family":"Tanaka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tatsuo","family":"Yoneda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nobutaka","family":"Nishimura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitsuru","family":"Tomizawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tomonori","family":"Nakahama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yasushi","family":"Nakai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Makito","family":"Miyake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kazumasa","family":"Torimoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiyoyuki","family":"Minamiguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiyohide","family":"Fujimoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,6]]},"reference":[{"issue":"9","key":"2568_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1687","DOI":"10.2215\/CJN.00700115","volume":"10","author":"JR Rodrigue","year":"2015","unstructured":"Rodrigue JR, Kazley AS, Mandelbrot DA, Hays R, LaPointe RD, Baliga P, et al.
