Abstract
- The article focuses on the need for validating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) formulae in diverse populations, particularly in underrepresented groups such as African children. Topics include the historical development of eGFR formulae, the limitations of existing approaches when applied to different demographics, and the importance of global collaboration to improve GFR estimation methods across various populations.
