Quantifying Individual-Level Inaccuracy in Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation : A Cross-Sectional Study

CONCLUSION: A substantial individual-level discrepancy exists between the mGFR and the eGFR. Laboratories reporting eGFR should consider including the extent of this uncertainty to avoid misinterpretation of eGFR as an mGFR replacement.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: National Institutes of Health.PMID:35785532 | DOI:10.7326/M22-0610
