The eGFR is calculated according to the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation using isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS)-traceable serum creatinine measurements, patient age (≥18 years), and patient sex; patient race (African versus non-African ancest...
Because of the nephrotoxicity of iodine-based contrast media and the more recently accepted role of gadolinium-based contrast media in the etiology of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, the renal function of patients undergoing contrast enhanced imaging studies must be known so that, if necessary, appropria...
Moreover, we determined the eGFR via the CKD-EPI formula: eGFR = 141 × min (serum creatinine/κ, 1) α × max (serum creatinine/κ, 1) − 1.209 × 0.993Age × 1.018 (for females). Here, κ = 0.7 and α=-0.329 for females, whereas κ = 0.9 and ...
eGFR values were calculated with the 2021 CKD-EPI formula and assessed at hospital admission and discharge. Baseline creatinine and GFR values were assessed by chart review of patients’ medical records from hospital admittance data in the previous year. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality...
The data collection included medical history, anthropometric measurements, and ophthalmic workup. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the equation of chronic kidney diseaseepidemiology collaboration (CKDEPI). The grading of AMD was done by a single experienced (more than...
For the vast majority of the patients creatinine was measured using the IDMS reference method. GFR was calculated using chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) serum creatinine equation85. The eGFR CKD-EPI equation is (1):...
A decade after the original publication Levey and colleagues offered the CKD-EPI eGFR equation which they claimed improved upon the MDRD eGFR equation when eGFR is high. Relative to the MDRD equation, “the CKD-EPI equation yields a smaller difference in estimated GFR between black persons and ...
