Despite ongoing progress, structural racism and health disparities continue to shape health care practices in ways health care providers may not even realize. A recent study in JAMA Network Open, ...

Current equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that use serum creatinine or cystatin C incorporate age, sex, and race to estimate measured GFR. However, race in eGFR equations is a ...

This is Part 3 of Embedded Bias, a series revealing how race-based clinical algorithms pervade medicine and why it's so difficult to change them. There it was on James Cannon’s lab report, two tiny ...

The current guideline-recommended creatinine-based eGFR equation incorporates a race coefficient that may overestimate eGFR in Black adults and contribute to discordant care. Among equations for ...

Almost periodic functions serve as a powerful conceptual framework in analysing differential equations whose coefficients or forcing terms exhibit recurrent behaviour over time. Rooted in the ...

A new equation for calculating a person's kidney function — their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) — worked as well with serum cystatin C as it did with serum creatinine as the biomarker.
