dc.description.abstract | Chronic kidney disease (CKD) expands the prior concept of chronic renal insufficiency by including patients with relatively
preserved renal function, as assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), as even these early CKD stages are
associated with an increased risk for all-cause death and cardiovascular death, CKD progression and acute kidney injury.
A decreased eGFR (<60 mL/min/1.73m2) is by itself diagnostic of CKD when persisting for >3 months. However, when eGFR
is 60 mL/min/1.73m2, an additional criterion is required to diagnose CKD. In a recent clinical trial published in The New
England Journal of Medicine, all 6190 participants were reported to have CKD: 47% had Stages 1 and 2 CKD and 53% had Stage 3
CKD. This illustrates a widespread misunderstanding of the concept of CKD. Moreover, CKD categories in this study were
assigned based on the estimated creatinine clearance. Since both estimated creatinine clearance and creatinine clearance
overestimate eGFR, this illustrates another frequent misunderstanding: equating GFR with creatinine clearance. In this
commentary, we clarify the concept of CKD and of CKD categories for non-nephrologists. Assigning a diagnosis of CKD to a
patient with normal renal function and absence of other evidence of CKD may have negative consequences for the
individual (e.g. insurance and others) as well as for the medical community at large by creating confusion about the concept. | en_US |
