Coming soon to a garage near you: Electric vehicles! Big-name auto makers like Nissan, Ford, and Mitsubishi are scheduled for major EV releases in the next year or so, while small car makers are busy building small electric vehicles for short trips around the neighborhood.
The blood creatinine level shows how well your kidneys are working. A high creatinine level may mean your kidneys are not working properly. The amount of creatinine in the blood depends partly on the amount of muscle tissue you have. Men generally have higher creatinine levels than women.
When the BUN level is considered dangerous? If your creatinine level is higher than 20 mg/dL, your kidneys may not be working at full strength. However, to judge whether certain BUN level is dangerous depends on many factors. Compared with BUN, creatinine is a better indicator of kidney function. If your creatinine level remains stable but BUN level increases, this could be due to dehydration, a large amount of protein intake or intestinal tract bleeding.
