By Rouvick Mariano Gama, Debasish Banerjee, Sarah Crosbie and 22 others.
Abstract
Summary: Background: Accurate assessment of kidney function using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is fundamental for chronic kidney disease diagnosis and management, although performance is variable in African and Asian cohorts. We evaluated creatinine-based eGFR performance in an ethnically diverse United Kingdom cohort.
