• Chronic kidney disease awareness, prevalence, and trends among U.S. adults, 1999 to 2000. (2004, result): “This rate contrasts with the approximately one fifth of adults over the age of 65 with stage 3 or 4 CKD (Figure 3) in NHANES 1999 to 2000 (18%, or 35 million), supporting the notion that much of CKD is underdiagnosed despite treatable complications (5).”
• Chronic kidney disease and the risk for cardiovascular disease, renal replacement, and death in the United States Medicare population, 1998 to 1999. (2005, background): “These different strands of evidence suggest that identifying patients with CKD may have an importance beyond the mere identification of patients who are at risk for progressing to ESRD (20).”
• Urinary Creatinine Concentrations in the U.S. Population: Implications for Urinary Biologic Monitoring Measurements (2004, methodology): “The GFR used for kidney function analysis was calculated using the equation derived from the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) study (Coresh et al 2002, 2003; Levey et al. 2003), in which serum creatinine, age, sex, and race were used.”
• Prevalence of chronic kidney disease in population-based studies: Systematic review (2008, methodology): “CKD was defined as CrCl or GFR less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 [11, 12 ].”
• Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes—2014 (2013, background): “Renal Function Screening for increased urinary albumin excretion can be performed by measurement of the albumin-tocreatinine ratio in a random spot collection; 24-h or timed collections are more burdensome and add little to prediction or accuracy (433,434).”
• Using Serum Creatinine To Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate: Accuracy in Good Health and in Chronic Kidney Disease (2004, methodology): “The abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation (3, 4) was advocated because it correlated well with GFR measured by iothalamate clearance (2, 5).”
• Using Standardized Serum Creatinine Values in the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study Equation for Estimating Glomerular Filtration Rate (2006, positive): “Clinicians should measure serum creatinine levels to estimate GFR in persons with chronic kidney disease or in those at increased risk for this disease (1, 2).”
