Proportion of different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to modified diet in renal disease (MDRD) and chronic kidney disease-epidemiology (CKD-EPI) equations (N = 272).

Stage of CKD	Description	eGFR, mL/min/1.73 m2	MDRD*	CKD-EPI*
Stage 3a	Mild to moderately decreased	45–59.9	26 (9.6)	18 (6.6)
Stage 3b	Moderate to severely decreased	30–44.9	14 (5.1)	14 (5.1)
Stage 4	Severely decreased	15–29.9	6 (2.2)	7 (2.6)
Stage 5	ESRD	≤15	1 (0.4)	1 (0.4)
Total			47 (17.3)	40 (14.7)

eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate; ESRD = end-stage renal disease.
