Glomerular filtration rate by differing measures, albuminuria and prediction of cardiovascular disease, mortality and end-stage kidney disease.

TL;DR: It is shown that eGFRcys is most strongly associated with CVD and mortality, and, along with albuminuria, adds predictive discrimination to current CVD risk scores, whilst traditional creatinine-based measures are weakly associated with risk.

Association of Total and Differential Leukocyte Counts With Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality in the UK Biobank.
