TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analysis of general population cohorts was conducted to assess the independent and combined associations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular risk: epidemiology, mechanisms, and prevention.
Ron T. Gansevoort,Ricardo Correa-Rotter,Brenda R. Hemmelgarn,Tazeen H. Jafar,Hiddo J.L. Heerspink,Johannes F.E. Mann,Kunihiro Matsushita,Chi Pang Wen +7 more
TL;DR: The epidemiology and pathophysiological mechanisms of cardiovascular risk in patients with chronic kidney disease are discussed, and methods of prevention are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation Between Kidney Function, Proteinuria, and Adverse Outcomes

TL;DR: The risks of mortality, myocardial infarction, and progression to kidney failure associated with a given level of eGFR are independently increased in patients with higher levels of proteinuria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of risk prediction using the CKD-EPI equation and the MDRD study equation for estimated glomerular filtration rate.

TL;DR: The CKD-EPI equation classified fewer individuals as having CKD and more accurately categorized the risk for mortality and ESRD than did the MDRD Study equation across a broad range of populations.
