Race-free CKD-EPI equation for serum creatinine and cystatin C

Description

CKD-EPI equation to estimate GFR based on a combination of creatinine and cystatin C without the ethnicity coefficient

Usage

CKDEpi_RF.creat.cys(creatinine, cystatin, sex, age)

Arguments

creatinine	Numeric vector with serum or plasma creatinine values in mg/dl
cystatin	Numeric vector with serum or plasma cystatin C values in mg/l
sex	Numeric vector with 0 for females and 1 for males
age	Numeric vector with age in years

Value

A numeric vector with eGFR values in ml/min/1.73 m^2.
