Background: We aimed to evaluate the performance of serum cystatin C-based equations in calculating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with varying stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: Serum cystatin C and creatinine levels were measured in 615 CKD patients. The CKD stage w...
