External Validation of a Novel Multimarker GFR Estimating Equation.
Kidney360(2023)
摘要
Abstract Background and Aims The use of multiple markers may improve the accuracy in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation especially when the interpretation of creatinine and cystatin C is limited. We sought to externally validate a recently developed multi-marker nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based estimated GFR equation (eGFR-NMR) using the biracial Genetic Epidemiology Network of Arteriopathy cohort. Method We included 224 sex, race/ethnicity, and mGFR-category-matched participants. GFR was measured using urinary clearance of iothalamate (mGFR). We calculated eGFR-NMR using serum creatinine, valine, myo-inositol, and cystatin C, age, and sex. We compared the reliability of eGFR-NMR with current eGFR equations (2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equations for creatinine [eGFR-Cr] and creatinine with cystatin C [eGFR-Cr-CysC]) using median bias, precision, and accuracy metrics. In particular, we evaluated its performance in age, sex, and race subgroups. Results In the overall cohort, mean age was 63 (±8) years, 54% were females, 49% were Black individuals, and mean mGFR was 78.7 (±24.3) ml/min/1.73 m2. eGFR-NMR overestimated mGFR by 2 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI, 4 to 0.7) while eGFR-Cr-CysC underestimated mGFR by −5 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI, −2 to −7). All equations had acceptable accuracy metrics. When stratified by age, sex, and race, eGFR-NMR performed the best among Black males age <65 years compared to current equations (Figure 1). In this subgroup, eGFR-NMR was unbiased (bias, 2mL/min/1.73 m2 [95% CI, -3 to 10]) compared to substantial biases of eGFR-Cr (bias, 17 mL/min/1.73 m2 [95% CI, 9 to 24]) and eGFR-Cr-CysC (bias, 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 [95% CI, 6 to 20]). In other subgroups, measures of accuracy for eGFR-NMR, eGFR-Cr, eGFR-Cr-CysC were generally similar. Conclusion eGFR-NMR can be used to estimate mGFR and was more accurate than CKD-EPI equations among Black males age <65 years.
