GFR Estimation Using β-Trace Protein and β(2)-Microglobulin in CKD

BACKGROUND: β-trace protein (BTP) and β(2)-microglobulin (B2M) are novel glomerular filtration markers that have stronger associations with adverse outcomes than creatinine. Comparisons of BTP and B2M to creatinine and cystatin C are limited by the absence of rigorously developed GFR estimating equa...
