It is more accurate than the MDRD Study equation at all levels of renal function, researchers report. PHILADELPHIA— Researchers have developed an equation they believe provides a more accurate way to ...

A systematic review found that alternative approaches to calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were worth looking into to properly account for diversity in populations. A review ...

A newly developed equation produces more accurate estimates of the glomerular filtration rate, a key indicator of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease, according to new research. A ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration 2021 equation for estimating GFR proved to be the least ...

The staging of chronic kidney disease requires measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). As direct GFR measurement is impractical, estimates are used. The MDRD equation was 'Hobson's choice' ...

Calculating carboplatin doses using the 4-variable modification of diet in renal disease (4-v MDRD) estimate of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the Calvert formula No significant financial ...

A meta-analysis of data from 1.1 million adults from 25 general-population cohorts, seven high-risk cohorts (of vascular disease), and 13 CKD cohorts indicated that the Chronic Kidney Disease ...

In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Takimoto et al 8 report the results of a phase I and pharmacokinetic study of oxaliplatin in 37 adult cancer patients with renal impairment. This ...

The race-free, creatinine-based equation for calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), introduced in 2021 and gaining traction as the default tool for assessing kidney function in ...

After completion of the MDRD study, the investigators received funding from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases and the Health Care Financing Administration to conduct ...

A newly developed equation produces more accurate estimates of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR)—a key indicator of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to ...
