The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of how well your kidneys are removing waste from your blood, which can be determined using an estimated GFR (eGFR) test. The test gets its name from glomeruli -- the parts of your kidney that filter out waste. (Photo credit: Image Source...
[PP.22.16] CKD-EPI EQUATIONS ESTIMATED GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE (GFR): COMPARISON WITH OTHER CYSTATIN C DERIVED EQUATIONSCystatin C has proven to be a useful parameter to evaluate renal and cardiovascular risk. Nevertheless, there are scanty reports on the utility of this test in the...
The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation for estimation of GFR from serum creatinine (eGFRCKD-EPI) improves GFR estimation compared with the MDRD Study equation [2]. eGFRCKD-EPI, as compared to eGFRMDRD, results in a lower prevalence of decreased eGFR [2]. Recen...
4 Furth et al1 have not considered the uncertainties in creatinine measurement and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation and, as importantly, within-patient biological variation of estimated GFR (eGFR). In the eGFR-C study, Lamb et al5 describe several issues that influence eGFR ...
