Renal Function Equations before and after Living Kidney Donation: A Within-Individual Comparison of Performance at Different Levels of Renal Function

[摘要] Background and objectives: The Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) study equation and the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) equation perform poorly in the (near-) normal range of GFR. Whether this is due to the level of GFR as such or to differences in individual characteristics between healthy individuals and patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unknown.
