The new race-free creatinine-cystatin C estimating equation underestimated measured GFR in Black adults by 0.1 and overestimated measured GFR in non-Black adults by 2.9.
Research from Kaiser Permanente supports the use of cystatin C tests as an alternative to creatinine-based tests for accurately assessing kidney function without the inclusion of race. The study ...
Technetium-99m–labeled diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid radioisotopic imaging showed normal kidney function, with a GFR of 87.5 ml per minute per 1.73 m 2 (normal range, 63 to 113).
