Background: Cystatin C is considered an alternative to creatinine to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR). However, studies have reported that increased adiposity is associated with a higher level of circulating cystatin C questioning the performance of estimation of GFR using cystatin C in obese subjects. Methods: We prospectively included 166 obese stages 1-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients between 2013 and 2015. GFR was measured with a reference method without (measured GFR [mGFR]) and with adjustment to body surface area (mGFRr) and estimated (eGFR) or de-indexed eGFR using the Chronic Kidney Disease and Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) equation using creatinine (CKD-EPIcreat), cystatin (CKD-EPIcyst) and the combination of cystatin and creatinine (CKD-EPIcyst-creat). Results: The biases between mGFR and de-indexed CKD-EPIcyst-creat were significantly lower than de-indexed CKD-EPIcreat (p = 0.001). Accuracies were significantly better with de-indexed CKD-EPIcyst-creat compared to CKD-EPIcreat and CKD-EPIcyst, respectively (p = 0.04 and 0.03). Bland and Altman plot showed a great dispersion of all formulae when patients had a GFR >60 ml/min. Interestingly, there is a gender difference; biases, precisions and accuracies of de-indexed CKD-EPIcyst-creat were significantly lower in obese women. These results may be related to a difference in the change of body composition during obesity in men versus women and in fact only waist circumference (WC) was positively and significantly correlated with cystatin C (p < 0.0001) whereas body mass index (BMI; p = 0.3) was not; bias for CKD-EPIcyst-creat was related with WC. Conclusion: Cystatin C-creatinine-based GFR equations outperform creatinine-based formula in obese CKD patients especially those with BMI ≥35 and in obese women.

Abstract Background and Aims Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the most important and accurate parameter of kidney function in the course of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Renal or plasma inulin, diethylenetriaminepentaacetate (DTPA), ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA), radiocontrast agents (iohexol, iothalamate) and some other substances clearances are the reference methods for determining GFR. However, these methods cannot be applied routinely because of the inconvenience. Several available methods have been developed to estimate GFR in a simpler manner and at low costs. The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation is widely used to evaluate the GFR in practice. However, this equation is not accurate for the full age spectrum. In 2016, the new equation, full age spectrum equation, based on the serum creatinine (FAScr), was developed and can be applicable to all ages. However, data on the benefits of using the FAScr-method in different populations are contradictory. In particular, it is unclear whether the FAScr provides any advantages over the CKD-EPI method in adults. In this regards, we attempted to compare data obtained FAScr method with results some non-reference and reference methods in adult Russian population. Method We examined 120 Caucasian patients (M:F - 52:68; age 18-76 year) with CKD 1 - 5 stages. Patients with nephrotic syndrome and congestive heart failure were excluded. GFR (reference method) measured by plasma clearance of 99mTc-DTPA (CDTPA). CDTPA determined by one- compartment model 2-4 h method using a Chantler-Barratt linear correction. Estimation GFRs (eGFR) were established by Cockcroft-Gault creatinine clearance (CG), CKD-EPI (creatinine), FAScr and Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) methods. Also, renal creatinine clearance (Ccr; UV/P method) was measured. Only GFRs values corrected on 1.73 m2 body surface area had been use. Results The values of GFR (Mean(SEM)) are: CDTPA 67.0(2.46); FAS 69.7(2.50); CKD-EPI 64.3(2.54); MDRD 60.9(2.62); CG 77.6(3.31); Ccr 85.2(3.40), мл/мин/1.73 m2. MDRD was significantly lower (paired Student t-test with correction on multiply comparison by Benjamini-Hochberg method) than CDTPA (P=0.0024), CG (P=0.0001) or Ccr (P&lt;0.0001) were significantly higher. The bias (CDTPA minus non reference GFR) were: FAS -2.67(1.71); CKD-EPI 2.72(1.58); MDRD 6.12(1.78); CG -10.57(2.51); Ccr -18.22(2.26), ml/min. All biases are significantly differ between themselves (P from 0.00064 to &lt;0.000001). The percentage of P30 of the FAS 81.6(3.5) was not significant differ from P30 of CKD-EPI (78.3(3.8); P=0.524) or MDRD (71.7(4.1); P=0.071). However, P30 of CG (67.5(4.3),%; P=0.01) or Ccr (54.2(5.42),%; P&lt;0,001) were significant lower, than P30 of FAS. There were significant comparable direct correlations between CDTPA and FAS (r=0.764), CKD-EPI (r=0.801), MDRD (r=0.756), CG (r=0.656), Ccr (r=0.749); P&lt;0.00001 in all cases. Conclusion In adult Russian population FAScr-method of GFR estimation had not any advantage over CKD-EPIcr-method.

AbstractThe Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation seems to correct the overdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) provided by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation. However, this point has not been tested in some ethnic groups. This study investigated the performance of MDRD and CKD-EPI equations in South Brazilian individuals.This cross-sectional study included 354 individuals including healthy volunteers, diabetic and non-diabetic individuals with or without CKD. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was measured by theIn the group as a whole,CKD-EPI reduces GFR underestimation in individuals with GFRs >60, but still presents a quite low accuracy at this GFR range. Moreover, it tends to overestimate GFR in subjects with GFRs <60 mL/min/1.73 m
