eGFR formulae used in this study.

Name Formula
IDMS-traceable “Short” Schwartz (eGFR_Schwartz_Short) (9) = 41.3 * (height [m]/serum creatinine [mgdL]
Schwartz-Lyon (eGFR_SchL) (10) = k* (height [m]/serum creatinine [mgdL]
with k = 41.3 for boys >13 years of age and k = 36.7 for all others
Full-age-spectrum with Q-age extension (eGFR_FAS_QA) (11) = 107.3/serum creatinine [mgdl]/Q [mgdL]
with Q = 0.21+0.057 * age (years)−0.0075 * age2+0.00064 * age3−0.000016 * age4 for boys
with Q = 0.23+0.034 * age (years)−0.0018 * age2+0.00017 * age3−0.0000051 * age4 for girls
Full-age-spectrum with Q-height extension (eGFR_FAS_QH) (11) = 107.3/serumcreatinine [mgdl]/Q [mgdL] 
with Q = 3.94−13.4 * height [m]+17.6 * height2−9.84 * height3+2.04 * height4
Lund-Malmö (eGFR_LM) (12) = eZ−0.0124* age [years]+0.339* ln(age) if male
= eZ−0.0124* age [years]+0.339* ln(age)−0.226 if female
with e = the base of the natural logarithm (ln)
and Z = 4.62−0.00112 * serum creatinine [mgdL] if serum creatinine <150 μmol/L
Z = 8.17+0.0005 * serum creatinine−1.07 * in (serum creatinine) [mgdL]) if serum creatinine ≥ 150 μmol/L
Lund-Malmö with lean body mass (eGFR_LM_LBM) (12) = eZ−0.00587* age [years]+0.00977* LBM
with e = the base of the natural logarithm (ln)
and Z = 4.95−0.0110 * serum creatinine [mgdL] if serum creatinine < 150 μmol/L
Z = 8.58+0.0005 * serum creatinine−1.08 * (serum creatinine) [mgdL]) if serum
creatinine ≥ 150 μmol/L
with lean body mass (LBM) = 1.07 * weight [kilogramm]−148 * (weight/height [m])2
Measured creatinine Clearance (16) (UCC) = (urinary creatinine [mgdL] * urine volume [ml] /(serum creatinine [mgdL] * time [min]) * 1.73/BSA
