From: The Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation does not improve the underestimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) in people with diabetes and preserved renal function

Longitudinal study of subjects with an early decline in GFR i.e., initial mGFR >60 ml/min/1.73 m2 and ΔmGFR ≥3.3 ml/min/1.73 m2 per year, ΔmGFR (based on initial and final values) was compared with ΔeGFR by the CKD-EPI and MDRD equations over a mean of 9 years (ANOVA: p = 0.01). *p < 0.05 vs mGFR. mGFR: measured Glomerular Filtration Rate, MDRD: Modification of Diet in Renal Disease, CKD-EPI: Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration
