Results: Mean e-GFR (ml/min/1.73m2) was lowest in cystatin C based CKD-EPI equation (89.56 +- 39.84) followed by combined cystatin C and creatinine based CKD-EPI (92.34 +- 37.88). COMPARISON OF RENAL FUNCTION ASSESSMENT BY CYSTATIN C AND CREATININE BASED EQUATIONS FOR e-GFR IN TYPE 2...
The eGFR was calculated through Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula (CKD-EPI) at the time of admission. The nutritional status (based in Body Mass Index and seric albumin), ferritine value as a marker of inflammation and the number of hospitalizations during 2014-2020 were ...
