Concordance between eGFR derived from the MDRD (Panel a) or CKD-EPI (Panel b) equations with mGFR in the entire study population (n = 199). The reduced major axis (the actually agreement between eGFR and mGFR) is shown as the broken line and the line of perfect concordance, i.e., if there was perfect agreement between mGFR and eGFR is shown by the solid line. Bland-Altman plots summarising the agreement of an eGFR derived from the MDRD (Panel c) or CKD-EPI (Panel d) equations with mGFR in the entire study population (n = 199). The dotted lines show the average of the differences between the GFR methods and the 95 % limits of agreement
