Comparison between three different equations for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate in predicting mortality after coronary artery bypass.

In contrast, the MDRD was more accurate in patients with BMI < 25.0 kg/m 2 ( p = 0.7) whereas it showed a trend to over-prediction in subjects with BMI ≥25.0 kg/m 2 ( p = 0.03 and p = 0.04 in patients with BMI 25–29 Kg/m 2 and ≥ 30 Kg/m 2 , respectively).

The MDRD formula shows borderline significant discrimination, given the lower confidence limit for the C statistic is 0.50 The CG formula shows no evidence of being able to discriminate between those who died and those who did not.
