Major differences between eGFR based on cystatin C compared with creatinine were associated with higher rates for all-cause mortality, CV events and kidney failure for outpatients, according to data ...

The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a blood test to assess kidney function. The formula for calculating eGFR takes the patient’s body size, age, and sex into account to predict how well ...

Estimated GFR based on both creatinine and cystatin C better gauged risks of 8 adverse outcomes compared with using creatinine alone in older adults with nondialysis-dependent CKD. Estimated ...

Despite an initial drop in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after 1 month of dapagliflozin, researchers say this is not associated with subsequent risk of cardiovascular or kidney events ...

Uncommon EGFR mutations, such as exon 20 insertions, account for nearly one-third of EGFR-driven NSCLC, complicating treatment strategies due to their diversity and structural challenges. Traditional ...
