Overestimation of glomerular filtration rate calculated from serum creatinine as compared with cystatin C in patients with subclinical hypercortisolism: Hyogo Adrenal Metabolic Registry

The skeletal muscle mass are decreased in the patients with hypercortisolism. Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is not accurately evaluated by calculation from serum creatinine (eGFRcre) in these patients. However, it is not known whether it applies to patients with subclinical hypercortisolism. We investigated the dissociation between eGFRcre and eGFR calculated from cystatin C (eGFRcys) in patients with subclinical hypercortisolism and its...
