Comparison of predictive performance of renal function estimation equations for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in an elderly hypertensive population

Comparison of predictive performance of renal function estimation equations for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in an elderly hypertensive population

BACKGROUND: The Modifications of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) are 2 equations commonly used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The predictive performance offered by these equations, particularly in relation to clinical outco...
