Table 2 Results of the linear regression analyses as well the Bland-Altman-analyses of the creatinine-based eGFR values (dependent variable) versus the kinetically determined mGFR values (95% confidence intervals in parentheses)

From: Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) determination via individual kinetics of the inulin-like polyfructosan sinistrin versus creatinine-based population-derived regression formulae

mGFR <= 60 (mL/min)/1.73 m2

mGFR > 60 (mL/min)/1.73 m2

60 < mGFR <= 90 (mL/min)/1.73 m2
