Andrew S. Levey,Lesley A. Stevens,Christopher H. Schmid,Yaping (Lucy) Zhang,Alejandro F. Castro,Harold I. Feldman,John W. Kusek,Paul W. Eggers,Frederick Van Lente,Tom Greene,Josef Coresh +10 more
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 ArticleDOI
Using standardized serum creatinine values in the modification of diet in renal disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate.
Andrew S. Levey,Josef Coresh,Tom Greene,Lesley A. Stevens,Yaping (Lucy) Zhang,Stephen Hendriksen,John W. Kusek,Frederick Van Lente +7 more
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
Comparison of Drug Dosing Recommendations Based on Measured GFR and Kidney Function Estimating Equations
Lesley A. Stevens,Thomas D. Nolin,Michelle M. Richardson,Harold I. Feldman,Julia B. Lewis,Julia B. Lewis,Roger A. Rodby,Raymond R. Townsend,Aghogho Okparavero,Yaping (Lucy) Zhang,Christopher H. Schmid,Andrew S. Levey +11 more
TL;DR: The MDRD Study equation can also be used for pharmacokinetic studies and drug dosage adjustments, and as more accurate GFR-estimating equations are developed, they should be use for these purposes.
Journal Article
Evaluating the performance of equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate.
TL;DR: Methods for the evaluation of GFR estimating equations are discussed and topics addressed include statistical methods used in development and validation of equations; explanation of measures of performance used for evaluation, with focus on distinction between bias, precision and accuracy.
