  1. Values are absolute numbers; numbers in parentheses are prevalence (in %). The prevalence estimates of low eGFR by CG/BSA equation were higher than MDRD equation. Proportion of subjects with proteinuria increased as eGFR decreased.
  2. eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; CG/BSA, Cockcroft-Gault equation corrected for body surface area; MDRD, modification of diet in renal disease equation.
