Cystatin C and creatinine eGFR reference intervals in healthy adults from Cameroon
Several equations are available for estimation of glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) from serum cystatin C and creatinine, but data on reference intervals from healthy subjects are scarce. Employing nine well-known equations, we calculated eGFRs for healthy Cameroonians, 194 men and 187 women 18-71...

| Shrnutí: | Several equations are available for estimation of glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) from serum cystatin C and creatinine, but data on reference intervals from healthy subjects are scarce. Employing nine well-known equations, we calculated eGFRs for healthy Cameroonians, 194 men and 187 women 18-71 years of age. Reference intervals were calculated using conventional techniques. For subjects < 50 years of age the eGFR reference intervals were with CAPA (men; women) 70.1-127.1; 79.9-172.2, with CKD-EPI
75.1-131.2; 81.3-135.5, with LM rev 65.4-106.5; 61.4-110.3, with CKD-EPI
74.1-127.2; 67.0-129.8, with mean (LM rev, CAPA) 72.2-110.6; 72.8-136.9, with CKD-EPI
81.1-126.6; 77.0-135.7, with EKFC
85.5-116.3; 83.3-124.8, with EKFC
69.4-114.2; 62.8-114.3, and with EKFC
82.5-114.0: 77.1-116.4 mL/min/1.73 m
, respectively. Median eGFR
was significantly higher than eGFR
irrespective of equations used. The eGFR
difference between healthy men and women aged < 50 years may be explained by lower production rates of cystatin C in women. The higher eGFR
reference intervals compared to that of eGFR
may be caused by increased tubular secretion of creatinine or increased production of cystatin C in the cohorts used for establishing the equations relative the case in healthy subjects. This suggests that the eGFR equations need to be further assessed regarding accuracy to adequately correspond to true GFR. |
