UAKD - Uromodulin (UMOD) associated kidney disease

Before approaching genetic testing for UMOD-mutation here are clinical recommendations to check beforehand:

1. There is no active urinary sediment.
2. Kidneys are quite unconspicuous and of normal or nearly normal size in the ultrasound - in 10 - 30% renal cysts are observed.
3. The uric acid serum levels are higher than the chronic kidney disease with reduced eGFR would cause.

Please enter patient data:

 Age:         [years] 
 Gender:   
 eGFR:      [ml/min]       
 Uric acid: [mg/dl]
(Please use decimal point e.g. 1.5 mg/dl)
                              
                                            
  (The eGFR adjusted uric acid level calculation was based on data from Bollee et al CJASN 2011)
