From: Impaired renal function and associated risk factors in newly diagnosed HIV-infected adults in Gulu Hospital, Northern Uganda

Sex	Serum creatinine, S _cr (mg/dL)	Equation (age in years for ≥ 18)
Female	≤0.7	GFR = 166 × (S_cr/0.7)^‐ 0.329 × (0.993)^Age
Female	>0.7	GFR = 166 × (S_cr/0.7)^‐ 1.209 × (0.993)^Age
Male	≤0.9	GFR = 163 × (S_cr/0.9)^‐ 0.411 × (0.993)^Age
Male	>0.9	GFR = 163 × (S_cr/0.9)^‐ 1.209 × (0.993)^Age
