          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Background: Guidelines recommend estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) using creatinine-based equations (CBE). Aim: To evaluate the agreement between GFR measured using radionuclide imaging and estimated using creatinine-based equations. Material and Methods: In 421 patients aged 54 ± 17 years (47% women) GFR was estimated using the MDRD-4, CKD-EPI and the body surface adjusted Cockroft Gault equation. GFR was also measured using a radionuclide imaging method with 99mTc-DTPA. The concordance between estimated and measured GFR was calculated using Lin's concordance coefficient and Bland and Altman plots. Results: Average GFR values obtained with CKD-EPI, MDRD-4, body surface adjusted Cockroft Gault equation and 99mTc-DTPA imaging were 75.9 ± 26.6, 76.3 ± 28.8, 77.1 ± 31.6 and 77.9 ± 28.4 ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. There was no significant difference in means and 29% of participants had a GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 by CKD-EPI. The correlation was good between equations, but acceptable when compared with the 99mTc-DTPA imaging. The weighted kappa between CBEs was good, but low when comparing CBEs with measured GFR. The Lin's concordance coefficient between estimated and measured GFR was low. Conclusions: GFR measured by 99mTc-DTPA radionuclide imaging has a low correlation and poor concordance with estimations using CBE.

          Antecedentes: Las guías clínicas recomiendan estimar la tasa de filtración glomerular (TFG) usando ecuaciones basadas en la creatinina sérica. Objetivo: Estudiar la concordancia entre la TFG medida usando un método de imágenes usando radioisótopos y aquella estimada con ecuaciones. Material y Métodos: En 421 pacientes de 54 ± 17 años (47% mujeres), la TFG se estimó utilizando las ecuaciones MDRD-4, CKD-EPI y Cockroft Gault ajustada para superficie corporal. La TFG se midió también con una técnica de imágenes usando 99mTc-DTPA. La concordancia entre la estimación y medición se calculó usando el coeficiente de concordancia de Lin y gráficos de Bland y Altman. Resultados: Los promedios de TFG obtenidos con CKD-EPI, MDRD-4, ecuación de Cockroft Gault e imágenes con 99mTc-DTPA fueron 75,9 ± 26,6, 76,3 ± 28,8, 77,1 ± 31,6 y 77,9 ± 28,4 ml/min/1,73 m2, respectivamente. No hubo diferencias significativas en los promedios y el 29% de los participantes tuvo una TFG < 60 ml/min/1,73 m2. La correlación entre las ecuaciones fue buena, pero sólo aceptable cuando se comparó con la medición por imágenes. El kappa ajustado entre las ecuaciones fue adecuado, pero malo cuando se comparó las ecuaciones con la medición por imágenes. El coeficiente de Lin mostró una baja concordancia entre la estimación y medición de TFG. Conclusiones: La concordancia entre la estimación de TFG usando ecuaciones y su medición directa mediante imágenes es baja.

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

          Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimates facilitate detection of chronic kidney disease but require calibration of the serum creatinine assay to the laboratory that developed the equation. The 4-variable equation from the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study has been reexpressed for use with a standardized assay. To describe the performance of the revised 4-variable MDRD Study equation and compare it with the performance of the 6-variable MDRD Study and Cockcroft-Gault equations. Comparison of estimated and measured GFR. 15 clinical centers participating in a randomized, controlled trial. 1628 patients with chronic kidney disease participating in the MDRD Study. Serum creatinine levels were calibrated to an assay traceable to isotope-dilution mass spectrometry. Glomerular filtration rate was measured as urinary clearance of 125I-iothalamate. Mean measured GFR was 39.8 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (SD, 21.2). Accuracy and precision of the revised 4-variable equation were similar to those of the original 6-variable equation and better than in the Cockcroft-Gault equation, even when the latter was corrected for bias, with 90%, 91%, 60%, and 83% of estimates within 30% of measured GFR, respectively. Differences between measured and estimated GFR were greater for all equations when the estimated GFR was 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 or greater. The MDRD Study included few patients with a GFR greater than 90 mL/min per 1.73 m2. Equations were not compared in a separate study sample. The 4-variable MDRD Study equation provides reasonably accurate GFR estimates in patients with chronic kidney disease and a measured GFR of less than 90 mL/min per 1.73 m2. By using the reexpressed MDRD Study equation with the standardized serum creatinine assay, clinical laboratories can report more accurate GFR estimates.

              GFR estimating equations in a multiethnic Asian population.

              Clinical practice guidelines recommend using equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) management and research. The MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) Study and CKD-EPI (CKD Epidemiology Collaboration) equations originally were derived from a North American population and had an ethnic coefficient adjustment for African Americans. A Chinese coefficient for the MDRD Study equation subsequently was determined, but this has not been externally validated. We compared the accuracy of the equations, evaluated the ethnic coefficients, and assessed the equations for disease staging in a multiethnic Asian population with CKD. A diagnostic test study comparing the Asian coefficient (and subgroups)-modified MDRD Study and CKD-EPI equations and a cross-sectional study assessing disease staging. 232 outpatients (52% men; 40.5% Chinese, 32% Malay, and 27.5% Indian/other) with stable CKD. Asian and ethnicity-based modifications of the MDRD Study and CKD-EPI equations. Measured GFR using 3-sample plasma clearance of technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid ((99m)Tc-DTPA), calculated using the slope-intercept method, with body surface area normalization (du Bois) and Brochner-Mortensen correction. Overall, the CKD-EPI equation is more accurate than the MDRD Study equation throughout the GFR range, with improved bias (median difference of estimated GFR - measured GFR) and root mean square error (P <0.001). CKD-EPI versus MDRD Study equation: bias, 1.1 ± 13.8 vs -1.0 ± 15.2 mL/min/1.73 m(2); precision, 12.1 vs 12.2 mL/min/1.73 m(2). Ethnic coefficients did not improve estimates of GFR significantly. The correctness of staging was improved using the CKD-EPI equation. All participants had CKD, but few were of European descent. The reference GFR technique was different from the original studies. The CKD-EPI is more accurate than the MDRD Study equation, particularly at higher GFRs. Therefore, we recommend adopting the CKD-EPI equation without ethnic adjustment for estimating GFR in multiethnic Asian patients with CKD. Copyright © 2011 National Kidney Foundation, Inc.
