The use of race in equations that estimate the glomerular filtration rate is problematic. In this study, the use of the serum creatinine level to estimate the GFR without race (or genetic ancestry) introduced systematic misclassification. Estimating GFR with cystatin C generated similar results but eliminated negative consequences of race-based app...
