MeSH definition : The amount of PLASMA flowing to the parts of the KIDNEY that function in the production
of urine. It is the amount of plasma perfusing the KIDNEY TUBULES per unit time, generally
measured by P-AMINOHIPPURATE clearance. It should be differentiated from RENAL PLASMA
FLOW which is approximately 10% greater than the effective renal plasma flow.;
