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 race-free revision of the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation for calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), introduced in September 2021, has rapidly ...

A new equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a measure of kidney function, shows improved accuracy and precision compared with commonly used equations. The European Kidney Function ...

The Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation was developed to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from age, sex and race, and serum levels of creatinine, urea and albumin; a ...

This study found that the recent change to remove race from the calculation of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may incorrectly label potential donors who are Black as having chronic kidney ...

A comparison by Selistre et al. of several creatinine-based equations commonly used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) shows that equations developed in adult populations result in ...

In a theoretical context, the 2021 creatine-based Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation reduced racial differences in preemptive wait time accrual more than the use of the ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Removing the race-specific coefficient from the equation that determines eGFR results in a “small but ...

BOSTON -- Some equations used to calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) may alter chemotherapy dosing in cancer patients, a prospective study indicated. Nearly 300 adults beginning ...
