Pearson correlations for the filtration markers

eGFRcr 1/Serum CysC 1/Serum BTP 1/Serum B2M
eGFRcr 1.00
1/Serum CysC 0.52 1.00
1/Serum BTP 0.45 0.43 1.00
1/Serum B2M 0.61 0.69 0.52 1.00

Note: Transformation of the filtration markers was done to take into account the reciprocal physiologic associations between filtration and marker levels.

eGFRcr, creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate; CysC, cystatin C; BTP, β-trace protein; B2M, β2-microglobulin
