Använd ekvationer utan »ras«- termer för att bestämma GFR
(2022) In Läkartidningen 119(21212).- Abstract
- Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is estimated by creatinine or cystatin C-based GFR-estimating equations. Those based upon creatinine, but not those based upon cystatin C, use ”race” terms due to that different populations differ in average muscular mass, influencing the creatinine, but not the cystatin C, level. “Race” is not a biological, but a sociological term, determined by self-assesment. New international studies therefore strongly recommend use of cystatin C-based GFR- estimating equations.

- Use cystatin C-based GFR-estimating equations Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is
estimated by creatinine or cystatin C-based GFR-estimating equations. Those
based upon creatinine, but not those based upon cystatin C, use ”race” terms
due to that different populations differ in average muscular mass, influencing the
creatinine, but not the cystatin C, level. “Race” is not a biological, but a sociological
term, determined by self-assesment. New international studies therefore strongly
recommend use of cystatin C-based GFR- estimating equations.
