Abstract: BACKGROUND The consequences for health outcomes of the discordance in cystatin C-based (eGFRcys) and creatinine-based (eGFRcr) estimated glomerular filtration rates are gaining attention. However, the association of discordance with all-cause mortality in the general population… read more here.

Abstract: Background: The 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation, which incorporates both creatinine and cystatin C, provides enhanced estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) compared to creatinine-only equations. This study aimed to explore the… read more here.
