Comparison of prevalence of kidney disease using KDIGO eGFR criteria (< 60 ml/min/1.73m2) for defining CKD vs age adapted eGFR thresholds for CKD definition. Bar chart shows that KDIGO eGFR criteria of < 60 ml/min/1.73m2 for defining CKD identifies 0.3–3% slightly more patients with kidney disease than age adapted eGFR thresholds for CKD definition while using all eGFR serum creatinine-based equations. N = Number of patients enrolled in the study
