Preferred Label : MDRD 4 Variable Formula;
NCIt definition : A formula to estimate glomerular filtration rate that takes into account age, sex,
race, and serum creatinine (Scr). eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) 186 x (Scr) -1.154 x (Age)
-0.203 x (0.742 if female) x (1.210 if African American). (Levey AS, Bosch JP, Lewis

rate from serum creatinine: a new prediction equation. Modification of Diet in Renal
Disease Study Group. Ann Intern Med. 1999;130:461-70.);
