Key result
Discrepancies between cystatin C- and creatinine-based eGFR predict all-cause mortality.
Why the study?
Discrepancies between eGFRcys and eGFRcr predict adverse outcomes in Western populations, but their prognostic significance in community-dwelling Japanese individuals remains unclear.

Prospective cohort study evaluates eGFR discrepancies predicting all-cause mortality in community-dwelling Japanese individuals, suggesting important health implications.
Discrepancies between the cystatin C–based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys) and the creatinine–based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcr) have been linked to adverse outcomes in Western populations. However, their prognostic significance in community-dwelling Japanese individuals remains unclear. Therefore, we conducted a prospective cohort study to evaluate this association.
