Evaluation of Biomarker-Based Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimating Equations in Glomerular Disease

open access: yesGlomerular Diseases
Introduction: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is typically estimated with equations that use biomarkers such as serum creatinine and/or cystatin-C. The impact of these different biomarkers on GFR estimates in glomerular disease patients is unclear.
