Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR. However, race in eGFR equations is ...

Earlier equations for kidney function were derived exclusively from White people and did not consider race. The finding of decreased accuracy in Black Americans later prompted researchers to ...

Long-awaited reports released Thursday call for eliminating race in estimated glomerular filtration rate equations and point to alternatives in an effort to eliminate disparities in chronic kidney ...

Researchers have identified an approach to remove race from equations used to estimate a person’s kidney function.

The equation of a a quadratic function can be determined from a graph showing the turning point and another point on the graph. Brush up on your knowledge on how to recognise and determine the ...
