Abstract:
The evaluation of kidney function is helpful for early detection of impairment of renal function.The standardization of serum creatinine measurement is of vital importance for the assessment of glomerular filtration rate(GFR).When the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease(MDRD)equations applied to Chinese population with chronic kidney diseases(CKD),the original equation requires a correction factor.
