From: Beta Trace Protein does not outperform Creatinine and Cystatin C in estimating Glomerular Filtration Rate in Older Adults

Figure 2

(a) Comparison of mGFR with the four BTP-based GFR equations. (b) Comparison of mGFR with combined creatinine/cystatin C GFR equations applicable in older adults. (a,b) Boxes indicate medians (line inside box), quartiles (upper and lower margins of box). Antennae are defined by the rule upper-lower box margin ± 1.5x interquartile range. Circles, squares and triangles indicate outliers. For estimating equations, refer to material section. mGFR = measured glomerular filtration rate; eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate; BIS = Berlin Initiative Study; CKD-Epi = Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration, FAS = Full Age Spectrum.
