Reduced kidney function and anemia as risk factors for mortality in patients with left ventricular dysfunction. (2001, methodology): “Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was computed in 6,630 patients using a prediction formula derived from the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) study (12,13): GFR 5 186 3 (serum creatinine) 3 (age) 3 1.”
The Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study: Design and Methods. (2003, methodology): “In the whole cohort, estimated GFR is based on the MDRD formula which relies on serum creatinine, pending development of a GFR estimating equation derived from CRIC Study data (3).”
Level of kidney function as a risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular outcomes in the community. (2003, methodology): “Glomerular filtration rate was, therefore, estimated using a formula developed and validated in the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) study (9,10) as follows:”
Recommendations for improving serum creatinine measurement: a report from the Laboratory Working Group of the National Kidney Disease Education Program.
