Abstract:
The evaluation of glomerular filtration rate is important in the diagnosis,treatment, and prognosis for patients. Although there are different equations widely used and convenient,the accuracy of them on the specific populations, including diabetic patients and the elderlys, still needs further discussion. We recommend using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration ( CKD-EPI) from creatinine and cystatin C in the elderlys. For diabetic patients, however, this equation should be recommended with cautions.
