Sex-specific association of body mass index and fatty liver index with prevalence of renal hyperfiltration: a cross sectional study using japanese health check-up data

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

It has been reported that RHF correlates with prediabetes, making it an early marker for the onset of diabetes. The following points are important when investigating RHF: 1) the definition of RHF; 2) the method of measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR); and 3) whether GFR should be adjusted for body surface area (BSA). Some studies have defined RHF as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 120 ml/min, while others have used eGFR to define RHF as the 95th percentile or + 2 SD in healthy subjects. The CKD-EPI equation has been noted to . . .
