For CKD-EPICr2009, CKD-EPICr2021, EKFC and CKD-EPICys, P-values were calculated against MMB-eGFR in each population. *P < .05. For CKD-EPICr-Cys2021 and FAScombi, P-values were calculated against Mean MMB-eGFR/CKD-EPICys, in each population. P < .05. The precision (SD of the bias) comparison was performed with Pitman's test. Accuracy comparison was performed with McNemar's test.

CKD-EPICr2009 no-race, CKD-EPICr2009 without African American correction factor; CKD-EPICr2009 race, CKD-EPICr2009 with African American correction factor; Lin's CCC, Lin's concordance correlation coefficient; V1/V2, validation population 1/2.
