In the comparison of two equations for CKD stage classification in primary care, the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation places a higher proportion of patients in advanced stages.
Researchers identify potential reductions in statin and antihypertensive therapy eligibility using Predicting Risk of cardiovascular disease EVENTs (PREVENT) equations. Applying the Predicting Risk of ...
Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR. However, race in eGFR equations is a ...
