Creatinine-Based Estimations of Kidney Function Are Unreliable in Obese Kidney Donors
Accurate assessment of kidney function by measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential to the risk assessment of prospective living kidney donors. We evaluated the performance of various estimating equations for creatinine clearance (Cockcroft-Gault), GFR (Modification of Diet in Ren...
