Assessment of creatinine and cystatin C-based eGFR equations in Chinese older adults with chronic kidney disease
ConclusionsBIS-2 equation may be optimal for Chinese older adults with CKD especially in older adults ≥ 75 years and with mGFR ≥ 30 ml/min/1.73 m2, while CKD-EPI-Cr-Cys equation could yield a better performance than BIS-2 equation, especially in those < 75 years and mGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2.
