2021年9月23日 · The inclusion of race in equations to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has become controversial. Alternative equations that can be used to achieve similar accuracy …

2025年3月18日 · Changes have been made to the eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) calculation. Previously Black race was used in the eGFR calculation along with age, sex, and …

2023年11月1日 · Laboratories have been using new (2021) equations to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Notably, the new equations differ from earlier ones in that they do not …

We propose a more cautious approach that maintains and improves accuracy of GFR estimates and avoids disadvantaging any racial group. We suggest full disclosure of use of race in GFR …

Use the new eGFRcr-cys equation (estimated glomerular filtration rate equation that incorporates both serum creatinine and serum cystatin C levels) to estimate the GFR for both Black and …

One approach to organize the large and complex recent literature regarding removal of the race coefficient in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating equations is through the lens of …

2021年4月9日 · The task force is examining the full potential effect of removing race from eGFR expressions, both the desirable benefits and the unintended consequences. Their …

Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is one of the primary diagnostic methods for detecting and managing kidney diseases. The eGFR equation includes age, sex, race and/or body …

2020年8月7日 · The guideline-recommended equation in adults (the 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine equation) includes a term for race (specified as …

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is considered the best overall diagnostic for assessing kidney function. However, directly measuring GFR (mGFR) with exogenous glomerular filtration …
