DOI: 10.1093/ajcp/aqaf121.470
Abstract: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations using serum creatinine and/or cystatin C are essential for evaluating renal function and establishing a diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, their performance remains understudied in certain ethnic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.13393
Abstract: BACKGROUND Whether estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) by differing biomarkers are differentially associated with mortality or whether the associations differ by diabetes status remains unclear, especially in Chinese population. METHODS We included 6995 participants without… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1432965
Abstract: Background New Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations without a race adjustment were developed to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We aimed to compare the performance of five CKD-EPI eGFR equations, with or… read more here.
