  1. The MDRD Study

  2. Chronic Kidney Disease The MDRD Study Modification of Diet in Renal Study Reference Levey AS, Bosch JP, Lewis JB, et al. A more accurate method to estimate glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine: a new prediction equation. Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study Group. Ann Intern Med. 1999;130(6):461–470.

  3. Background Serum creatinine concentration is widely used as an index of renal function, but this concentration is affected by factors other than glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Despite more recent studies on serum creatinine concentration to GFR, no formula is more widely used to predict creatinine clearance than that proposed by Cockcroft and Gault. This formula is used to detect the onset of renal insufficiency, to adjust the dose of drugs excreted by the kidney and to evaluate the effectiveness of therapy for progressive renal disease. Thus, Levey et al. conducted a Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) multicenter, controlled trial to develop an equation that could improve the prediction of GFR from serum creatinine concentration.

  4. Aim To develop an equation that could improve the prediction of GFR from serum creatinine concentration.

  5. Methods

  6. Results • Mean GFR for the population was 0.38 mL/s2/m2 (39.8 mL/min/1.73 m2). • Lower mean GFR values are observed in patients with lower protein intake, white patients and older patients (≥55 years) (P<0.01). • The mean value of creatinine clearance was 0.81/mL/s2/m2 (48.6 mL/min/1.73 m2). • Mean value of creatinine clearance was lower in older patients and patients with lower protein intake (P≤0.01). • The mean serum creatinine concentration was 203 µmol/L (2.3 mg/dL). • Mean serum creatinine concentration was higher in men, patients with lower protein intake, and patients with higher mean arterial pressure (P≤0.01). • Measured creatinine clearance overestimated GFR by 19%, and creatinine clearance predicted by the Cockcroft–Gault formula overestimated GFR by 16% (Fig. 1). • Even after adjustment to correct for these systematic errors, variability in predicted GFR compared with measured GFR was lowest in the regression equations developed from the MDRD Study database (Fig. 2).

  7. Conclusions The MDRD study prediction equations seem to be more accurate (they demonstrate less bias and greater precision) in predicting GFR than measured creatinine clearance or other commonly used equations. The investigators recommend routinely using the MDRD study prediction equation to predict GFR from serum creatinine concentration. The MDRD study prediction equations are more accurate in predicting GFR than other commonly used equations.
