Creatinine has been, is now, and will be for the foreseeable future our easiest way to monitor kidney function. However, the inadequacies and limitations of creatinine as such a marker are well ...

A cross sectional study found that substantial discrepancies exist between individual estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and directly measured GFR (mGFR). Laboratory reports that provide eGFR ...

The use of algorithms that alter patient medical care based on race has fallen under increasing criticism, as race-based medicine has been shown to contribute to healthcare disparities. In response, ...
