English term or phrase: PAH
"Inulin and PAH preparation" - in a pharmaceutical document explaining creatinine clearance, GFR (glomerular filtration rate, but what is THAT in French!!)

GFR
Explanation:

GFR= DGF débit de filtration glomérulaire
"La fonction globale de rein est estimée par la filtration glomérulaire. L’évaluation de la fonction rénale repose sur la mesure du débit de filtration glomérulaire (DFG) qui fait elle-même appel au concept de clairance rénale"

para-amino-hippurate (PAH)


Explanation:
Clearance:
The clearance of a chemical is the volume of body fluid from which the chemical is, apparently, completely removed by biotransformation and/or excretion, per unit time. In fact, the chemical is only partially removed from each unit volume of the total volume in which it is dissolved. Since the concentration of the chemical in its volume of distribution is most commonly sampled by analysis of blood or plasma, clearances are most commonly described as the "plasma clearance" or "blood clearance" of a substance.
For a single compartment system, total clearance, by all routes (ClT), is estimated as the product of the elimination constant and the volume of distribution, in liters: ClT = kel · Vd; the dimensions of ClT are, of course, volume/time.

Renal plasma clearance will vary with such factors as age, weight, and sex of subject, the state of cardiovascular and renal function, the nature of the material being excreted, species, etc. Renal clearance by only glomerular filtration is defined and measured as the clearance of the sugar inulin, which is elinated from the body by no route other than glomerular filtration. Total renal clearance is defined and measured by clearance of ), a substance which is eliminated by both glomerular filtration and tubular excretion (at the maximum rate of which the tubular mass is capable). Neither inulin nor PAH undergoes reabsorption by the tubules as some materials do. (N.B.: Blood and plasma are completely cleared of PAH by a single "pass" through the kidney; PAH clearance is therefore, the standard measure of renal plasma, or blood, flow).
