Comparison of estimated glomerular filtration rate values calculated using serum cystatin C and serum creatinine

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) formulas based on cystatin C and serum creatinine and investigate whether the formulas can detect the renal damage at microalbuminuric level in diabetic patients. Methods: Totally, 99 type 2 diabetic patients...
