Scope and Contents

Contents

This study presents an equation for estimating the glomerular filtration rate that uses both creatinine and cystatin C. It performs better than equations with either marker alone and is potentially useful for confirming chronic kidney disease.
Clinical assessment of kidney function is part of routine medical care for adults.
