The effects of age (≤60 or > 60 years), sex (male vs female), Body Mass Index (BMI) (≤30 or > 30 kg/m2), glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) (≤8 or > 8 % : ≤ 64 or > 64 mmole/mol), fasting plasma glucose (≤8 or > 8 mmol/L) or type of diabetes (type 1 or type 2) on mGFR and eGFR values derived from the MDRD and CKD-EPI equations. *** p < 0.001 vs mGFR, ***p < 0.001 vs mGFR for age > 60 years, * P < 0.05 vs mGFR for fasting plasma glucose ≤ 8 mmol/L. mGFR: measured Glomerular Filtration Rate, MDRD: Modification of Diet in Renal Disease, CKD-EPI: Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration
