The Error of Estimated GFR in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus represents 30–50% of the cases of end stage renal disease worldwide. Thus, a correct evaluation of renal function in patients with diabetes is crucial to prevent or ameliorate diabetes-associated kidney disease. The reliability of formulas to estimate renal function is still unclear, in particular, those new equations based on cystatin-C or the combination of creatinine and cystatin-C. We aimed to assess the error of the available formulas to estimate glomerular filtration rate in diab… Show more

“…Secondly, this is an observational study carried out in a single district hospital and thus the results cannot be generalized to patients in other settings. Finally, the error of eGFR when utilizing the CKD-EPI equation demonstrated a wide dispersion with an average of 30% [31]. This might lead to large variations in declining eGFR.…”

“…For agreement analyses, we used a software (AGP Agreement Program v1.0 IGEKO, SP) available at: www. ecihucan.es/lfr/apps/?dir=agreement_installer [22]. All tests were two-sided and P < 0.050 was considered statistically significant.…”

“…Bland-Altman plots were also used to assess the agreement between eGFR and the reference mGFR. We conducted all analyses using the statistical package Agreement Program (AGP v1.0, IGEKO, SP) [25] which is based on the R code developed by Lin et al [24] and available at www.ecihucan. es/lfr/apps/?dir=agreement_installer.…”
