Because race is a social construct, not a physical characteristic, the race coefficient may not be needed to calculate eGFR. Removing the race coefficient could increase the number of black ...
The K/DOQI GUIDELINES advocate use of the Cockroft–Gault equation and MDRD EQUATION to predict glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The validity of these equations in the kidney transplant population is ...
Am J Health Syst Pharm. 2007;64(6):652-660. Two basic questions remain unanswered: what is the difference in renal function as determined by the MDRD4 equation versus the Cockcroft–Gault equation ...
It is more accurate than the MDRD Study equation at all levels of renal function, researchers report. PHILADELPHIA— Researchers have developed an equation they believe provides a more accurate way to ...
The new equation appears more accurate than the race-free 2021 CKD-EPI equation, according to investigators. The European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) has developed a new race- and sex-free ...
A comparison of radiographic and morphometric characteristics and outcomes in T3a pathologically upstaged and non-upstaged renal cell carcinoma. Equation performance for predicted new baseline ...
It has been reported that eGFR values are associated with an increased morbidity and mortality; however, these previous studies were mainly performed on Western populations using the MDRD equation.
I recently took a call from a new practitioner. She had an 85-year-old diabetic, non-insulin-dependent female with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 45 mL/min/1.73 m 2. The practitioner asked if ...
The current guideline-recommended creatinine-based eGFR equation incorporates a race coefficient that may overestimate eGFR in Black adults and contribute to discordant care. Among equations for ...
Leading NMR diagnostics company numares recently published data showing that its novel, multi-marker approach to assess kidney function allowed for a more precise estimation of glomerular filtration ...
Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Older adults may have hyperfiltration with normal glomerular filtration rate calculation. GFR calculation may be ...
After completion of the MDRD study, the investigators received funding from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases and the Health Care Financing Administration to conduct ...
