Cystatin C as a GFR Estimation Marker in Acute and Chronic Illness: A Systematic Review

Rationale & Objective: Creatinine-based GFR estimating (eGFRcr) equations may be inaccurate in populations with acute or chronic illness. The accuracy of GFR equations that use cystatin C (eGFRcys) or creatinine-cystatin C (eGFRcr-cys) is not well studied in these populations. Study Design:...
