Creatinine- versus cystatin C-based renal function assessment in the Northern Manhattan Study.

Creatinine- versus cystatin C-based renal function assessment in the Northern Manhattan Study.

BACKGROUND:Accurate glomerular filtration rate estimation informs drug dosing and risk stratification. Body composition heterogeneity influences creatinine production and the precision of creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcr) in the elderly. We compared chronic kidney diseas...
