Abstract

(using the CKD-EPI equation). Discrimination was significantly better in men, older and overweight participants. Intercept adjustment markedly improved calibration. Asian models have modest discrimination and good calibration with modest adjustment in predicting undiagnosed CKD in African diabetic patients; limiting their consideration for use in diabetes care in this setting.
