  1. aGFRix or GFRi: i and x implies the sampling time (hr) of the blood used to calculate the corresponding plasma clearance of iohexol. Units are in ml/min/1.73m2
  2. bAccuracy was calculated as the percentage of estimate within 30% of the measured GFR (P30) and the percentage of estimate within 10% of the measured GFR (P10)
  3. cAs for accuracy, the value 100 represents none of the estimates differed from the mGFR by more than 30% or 10% with a 95% CI of (100,100)
