Determining Glomerular Filtration Rate in Homozygous Sickle Cell Disease: Utility of Serum Creatinine Based Estimating Equations

BACKGROUND: Various estimating equations have been developed to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for use in clinical practice. However, the unique renal physiological and pathological processes that occur in sickle cell disease (SCD) may invalidate these estimates in this patient population...
