Background and Aim: In routine clinical practice, the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) based on serum creatinine has been followed. However, the reliability of creatinine in estimation of GFR is biased and imprecise, leading to the misdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The serum cystatin C is an alternative marker for estimating GFR. Hence, we aimed to compare the newly proposed Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration Equations (CKD-EPI) with four approved equations based on both creatinine and cystatin C with reference to Tc-99m-diethylenetriamine pentaacetate (Tc-99m-DTPA) considered as a standard.Materials and Methods:Two hundred and one patients were enrolled in the study from a private nephrology outpatient clinic(OPD), Tiruchirappalli, India. The serum creatinine and cystatin C were measured along with routine biochemistry tests. The measurement of GFR was done by Tc-99m-DTPA gates method. The estimated GFR (eGFR) were calculated using serum cystatin C and creatinine based formulae along with the new CKD-EPI formulae. All eGFR estimations were compared with the measured GFR by gates method.Results: The average measured GFR of end stage, severe, moderate, mild renal disease and normal patient groups were 10.17±2.47, 22.58±4.40, 39.05±7.06, 69.62±24.64 and 118.06±29.23 respectively. When comparing the diagnostic accuracy for predicting GFR using well established formulae, the cystatin C based formulae have shown to be highly accurate in all stages of CKD than creatinine based formulae. Among cystatin C based formulae, CKD-EPI Cystatin C had relatively better diagnostic accuracy for predicting GFR in all stages of CKD.Conclusion: CKD-EPI Cystatin C formula has unbiased and more accurate to predict GFR in all stages of CKD.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.16(2) 2017 p.238-244

Background. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is identified in the general population using estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) calculated from a serum creatinine-based equation, the chronic kidney disease-epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. Using serum cystatin C in combination may improve eGFR accuracy. We evaluated the new CKD-EPI equations incorporating cystatin C in a population of Asian Indians in classifying CKD across body mass index, diabetes, and hypertension status.Methods. We retrieved standardized serum creatinine and serum cystatin C data from a cohort of 2877 Asian Indians aged 40–80 years from the Singapore Indian Eye Study and calculated eGFR (in mL/min/1.73 m2) with the new CKD-EPI equations and serum creatinine only equation.Results. The creatinine only equation mean eGFR (88 ± 17) was similar to using spline Log cystatin C (88 ± 22). The lowest mean eGFR (81 ± 21) was obtained with the spline Log cystatin C—age, sex, and weight equation. The creatinine only equation had the fewest participants (7.1%) with eGFR <60 and spline Log cystatin C—age, sex, and weight equation had the most (16.1%).Conclusions. Using serum cystatin C resulted in widely varying eGFR which significantly affected the classification of chronic kidney disease.
