Relationship between plasma growth differentiation factor-15 level and estimated glomerular filtration rate in type 2 diabetes patients with and without albuminuria

To assess the relationship between growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with and without albuminuria. We examined 324 patients with type 2 DM in a cross-sectional study. eGFR was determined using eq...

Zusammenfassung:To assess the relationship between growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with and without albuminuria. We examined 324 patients with type 2 DM in a cross-sectional study. eGFR was determined using equations from creatinine (eGFRcr) and the combination of creatinine and cystatin C (eGFRcr-cys). The patients were classified into two groups based on urinary albumin: creatinine ratio (ACR): the normoalbuminuria group (urinary ACR
