DOI: 10.1093/ndt/gfx274
Abstract: Background Dysmorphic red blood cells (dRBCs) on urine microscopy have been associated with glomerulonephritis (GN). We assessed the prevalence and ability of dRBCs to differentiate GN from other kidney diseases. Methods Adult patients with kidney… read more here.

DOI: 10.3343/alm.2019.39.3.271
Abstract: Background Dysmorphic red blood cells (dRBCs) are first-line biomarkers for detecting glomerulonephritis (GN) in patients with hematuria. The UF-1000i system (Sysmex, Kobe, Japan), based on flow cytometry, provides small red blood cell (RBC) values (UF-1000i… read more here.
