Although population-level differences between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and measured glomerular filtration rate are well-known, the individual-level differences are not. So what clinical implication can this have for our patients? Learn about these fresh findings with Dr. Javed Butler and Dr. Tariq Shafi, the John D. Bower Director of the Division of Nephrology and Professor of Medicine at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. Together, they discuss a recent study from the Annals of Internal Medicine that explored this topic.
