A New Equation to Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate

Andrew S. Levey, +10 more
- 05 May 2009 - 
TL;DR: The CKD-EPI creatinine equation is more accurate than the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation and could replace it for routine clinical use.
Journal Article

K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for chronic kidney disease: Evaluation, classification, and stratification

Andrew S. Levey, +78 more
- 15 Sep 2002 - 
TL;DR: In the early 1990s, the National Kidney Foundation (K/DOQI) developed a set of clinical practice guidelines to define chronic kidney disease and to classify stages in the progression of kidney disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global, regional, and national comparative risk assessment of 79 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or clusters of risks in 188 countries, 1990-2013: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013

Mohammad H. Forouzanfar, +736 more
- 05 Dec 2015 - 
TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factor study 2013 (GBD 2013) as discussed by the authors provides a timely opportunity to update the comparative risk assessment with new data for exposure, relative risks, and evidence on the appropriate counterfactual risk distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using standardized serum creatinine values in the modification of diet in renal disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate.

Andrew S. Levey, +7 more
- 15 Aug 2006 - 
TL;DR: The MDRD Study equation has now been reexpressed for use with a standardized serum creatinine assay, allowing GFR estimates to be reported in clinical practice by using standardized serumcreatinine and overcoming this limitation to the current use of GFR estimating equations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease in the United States

Josef Coresh, +7 more
- 07 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: The prevalence of CKD in the United States in 1999-2004 is higher than it was in 1988-1994 and this increase is partly explained by the increasing prevalence of diabetes and hypertension and raises concerns about future increased incidence of kidney failure and other complications.
