eGFR in Chronic Kidney Disease

Reduced. Studies summarised in the OSMF atlas report lower eGFR in Chronic Kidney Disease than in the reference group of the cited comparison (CKD vs healthy reference range). Source: Li et al. 2024.

The atlas record does not list a standardised clinical test code (LOINC) for eGFR, which usually means it was measured with research assays or study-specific protocols rather than a routine clinical panel. Check the cited source for the exact method.

No. No single biomarker is diagnostic of Chronic Kidney Disease. eGFR findings come from group comparisons, overlap considerably between patients and controls, and vary with study design, timing and comparison group. A result should be interpreted by a clinician alongside symptoms, history and other tests.
