The rate at which this filtration takes place is known as glomerular filtration rate or GFR.

滤过的速率称为肾小球滤过率，或GFR。

In chronic kidney disease, the falling glomerular filtration rate leads to more and more renin secretion which leads to hypertension.

慢性肾病中，GFR降低，导致更多肾素分泌，进而引发高血压。

Finally the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease comes down to looking at changes in the glomerular filtration rate over time.

慢性肾病的诊断归根结底是基于肾小球滤过率随时间推移的变化。

In the 2015 study, the researchers did measure certain protein-related health variables, such as glomerular filtration rate and creatinine, and found no changes when eating the high protein diet.

在2015年的一项研究中，研究人员确实测量了某些与蛋白质相关的健康变量，比如肾小球滤过率和肌酐，发现高蛋白饮食并没有带来改变。

Now, acute kidney injury can cause a low glomerular filtration rate, which is the volume of blood filtered through the kidney over a period of time, and this can lead to oliguria and hyperkalemia.

严重的肾损伤可以降低肾小球滤过率，即单位时间内肾脏过滤的血液量，这可以导致少尿和高钾血症。

Each nephron also has a really unique region called the juxtaglomerular complex which is involved in the regulation of blood pressure and the glomerular filtration rate —or the amount of blood that passes through the glomeruli each minute.

每个肾单位有一个独特的区域，称为球旁复合体；球旁复合体与血压的调控和肾小球滤过率（每分钟流经肾小球的血量）有关。
