Why the study?
Is obesity associated with rapid kidney function decline and incident chronic kidney disease in non-diabetic adults with preserved eGFR?
Is obesity associated with rapid kidney function decline and incident chronic kidney disease in non-diabetic adults with preserved eGFR?
Obesity is associated with kidney function decline in non-diabetic adults with preserved eGFR, but the association varies depending on whether creatinine or cystatin C is used to estimate GFR.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May warrant closer kidney monitoring in severe obesity; leaves open differential GFR marker effects in non-diabetics.
Malkina et al. (2013) studied this question.
