Methods GFR was estimated in 208 patients with cardiovascular diseases by Tc-DTPA dynamic renal imaging, and the eGFR was derived from 8 equations using different variables. Results In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 1-3, the eGFR calculated suing serum creatinine (SCr)-based ...
“min” indicates minimal serum creatinine/κ or 1, whereas “max” refers to maximal serum creatinine/κ or 1 [15]. A mildly reduced GFR was defined as an eGFR ranging from 60 to 90 ml·min–1·(1.73 m2)–1 [12]. Additionally, we determined the body mass index (BMI) by dividing...
Decline of eGFR was accurately estimated using simple linear regression models and locally measured creatinine was as good as centrally measured creatinine at predicting kidney decline in people with an eGFR<60 and an eGFR 60-90ml/min/1.73m2 with albuminuria. Analyses showed that one baseline and ...
