message: Just a heads up for Renal function: coverage of GFR & estimated Creatinine Clearance was all duplicated at Glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance and I've merged the lot (using I hope best phrased bits and incorporating the wealth of references given) (see Talk:Renal function#Proposed merger GFR into Renal Function). 
I've tried hard to distinguish GFR & Ccr which can both be measured acurately, from formulae used to estimnate both (eGFR & eCcr). To assist with this, describing Ccr as an "estimation" of GFR would be confusing, so we should probably use "aproximate/approximation" when contrasting GFR to Ccr.
Memtion also probably needs to be made of nuclear medicine assessment of renal function (eg MAG3 scan looking at relative function over the different areas of a single kidney, and differential function between a left & right kidney - or for that matter a transplanted kidney)
Obviously important topic for nephrology project, so can people have a look at what always risks being a confusing topic for lay readers and tweak my English :-) David Ruben  Talk  05:20, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: We might as well discuss actual renal function and physiological and clinical measures together. Good call. JFW | T@lk 06:35, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Thin ascending limb of loop of Henle article is a mess and requires factual cleanup.
Not really sure if each of the sub-sections of the Loop of Henle really need their own article.  Perhaps can be merged (at least the ascending limb)..

message: Student editor here. I have submitted a draft for submission for an article on Page kidney []. Wanted to get the approval process started so have only written the intro, but will continue to write other sections quickly. Plan to include sections on: causes, signs & symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and history. Will have particular focus on conditions in patients with kidney allograft or one functioning kidney. Although the majority of published research is case reports, there are at least two review papers on the topic (1991 and 2009). Also posted discussion to the WikiProject_Medicine talk page.
