Paradoxical mortality of high estimated glomerular filtration rate reversed by 24‐h urine creatinine excretion rate adjustment: sarcopenia matters

Paradoxical mortality of high estimated glomerular filtration rate reversed by 24‐h urine creatinine excretion rate adjustment: sarcopenia matters

Abstract Background Muscle wasting may explain the paradoxical mortality of patients with high estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) derived from equation methods. However, empirical evidence and solutions remain insufficient. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, we compared the perfo...
