Determination of plasma creatinine (Pcr) should be associated to an estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Pottel et al. established a height-independent equation, eGFR = 107.3/(Pcr/Q) where Q is the median of Pcr (Pottel–Belgium). The aims were to 1) determine a local height-independent equation (Pottel–Lyon), 2) evaluate the performance of these equations compared to the Schwartz 2009...
Renal dysfunction is frequent in liver cirrhosis and is a strong prognostic predictor of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) outcome. Therefore, an accurate evaluation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial in pre‐OLT patients. However, in these patients plasma creatinine (Pcr) is inaccurate and the place of serum cystatine C (CystC) is still debated. New GFR‐predicting equations, based...
