Abstract-Vorschau
Introduction: Estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are considered the best overall indices of kidney function. Exceptional dietary intake or muscle mass hampers the use of creatinine-based estimating equations, whereas cystatin C-based equations are affected by steroid therapy. Combining a creatinine-based with a cystatin C-based equation may improve prediction of GFR in children. Methods: In 331 children,…
