Establishment of muscle mass-based indications for the cystatin C test in renal function evaluation

BackgroundWe aimed to suggest muscle mass-based criteria for using of the cystatin C test for the accurate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).Materials and methodsWe recruited 138 Korean subjects and evaluated eGFRcr (derived from Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI)...
