iGFR was measured by iohexol disappearance. eGFR was on the basis of serum creatinine concentrations from the 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation. MAE, mean absolute error; MPE, mean proportionate error.

a

The 95% CIs were derived using leave-one-out cross validation with bootstrap with 500 iterations. Positive values indicate greater agreement for secretory solute clearances, and negative values indicate greater agreement for iGFR.

b

Statistically significant adjusted correction for multiple comparisons using the Hommel method.
