Abstract Background and Aims All living kidney donors undergo assessment of renal function by evaluation of Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR). 51Cr-EDTA is one of the most widely used marker for measuring GFR but it is hampered by cost and laboriousness as well as not being widely available in Malaysia. Measuring 24-hour urine for creatinine clearance (Ccr) is a common alternative when exogenous filtration markers are not available. Ccr suffers from over/underestimation of measured GFR (mGFR) due to errors in urine collection and tubular secretion of creatinine. This is a study to compare the correlation of Ccr against 51Cr-EDTA in measuring GFR among the living donors in Malaysian population. Method This is a cross-sectional, single-centre study of a cohort of living kidney donor candidates from January 2007 to March 2019. All candidates who had mGFR done with both 51Cr-EDTA and Ccr in University Malaya Medical Centre were enrolled. Special consideration was taken to account for adequate urine sampling for Ccr. Clinical data was analysed for correlation, bias, precision and accuracy between Ccr and 51Cr-EDTA. Results A total of 83 living kidney donors with a mean age of 45.60 ± 11.06 years and body mass index (BMI) of 24.36 ± 4.03 were enrolled. Female comprised 74.7% of the donors while Chinese, Malay and Indian accounted for 67.5%, 20.5% and 7.2% of the donors respectively. The study group had a mean serum creatinine of 63.37 ± 16.00 umol/L with a urine volume of 2.03 ± 0.81 L (range 0.70 – 3.82). mGFR from 51Cr-EDTA was 125.56 ± 27.64 ml/min/1.73m2 (range 77.0 – 194.3) whereas calculated Ccr was 136.05 ± 36.15 ml/min/1.73m2 (range 75.32 – 280.06). The correlation coefficient between Ccr and 51Cr-EDTA is moderate (r = 0.43) (p < 0.01). Mean absolute bias between Ccr and 51Cr-EDTA was 10.59 ± 37.99 ml/min/1.73m2 (p < 0.05). The accuracy of Ccr within 30% of 51Cr-EDTA was 77.11%. Conclusion Our study showed that Ccr significantly overestimates mGFR compared to 51Cr-EDTA. However, there is a significantly moderate positive correlation between Ccr and 51Cr-EDTA. Thus, in the absence of 51Cr-EDTA, Ccr is a clinically acceptable alternative if utilized with care and understanding its limitations.

Abstract Background The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) measured at 1 year is the usual benchmark applied in kidney transplantation (KT). However, acting on earlier eGFR values could help in managing KT during the first post-operative year. We aimed to assess the prognostic value for long-term graft survival of the early (3 months) quantification of eGFR and proteinuria following KT. Methods The 3-, 6- and 12-month eGFR using the Modified Diet in Renal Disease equation (eGFRMDRD) was determined and proteinuria was measured in 754 patients who underwent their first KT between 2000 and 2010 (with a mean follow-up of 8.3 years) in our centre. Adjusted associations with graft survival were estimated using a multivariable Cox model. The predictive accuracy was estimated using the C-index and net reclassification index. These same analyses were measured in a multicentre validation cohort of 1936 patients. Results Both 3-month eGFRMDRD and proteinuria were independent predictors of return to dialysis (all P < 0.05) and there was a strong correlation between eGFR at 3 and 12 months (Spearman’s ρ = 0.76). The predictive accuracy of the 3-month eGFR was within a similar range and did not differ significantly from the 12-month eGFR in either the derivation cohort [C-index 62.6 (range 57.2–68.1) versus 66.0 (range 60.1–71.9), P = 0.41] or the validation cohort [C-index 69.3 (range 66.4–72.1) versus 71.7 (range 68.7–74.6), P = 0.25]. Conclusion The 3-month eGFR was a valuable predictor of the long-term return to dialysis whose predictive accuracy was not significantly less than that of the 12-month eGFR in multicentre cohorts totalling >2500 patients. Three-month outcomes may be useful in randomized controlled trials targeting early therapeutic interventions.

Context.— It is unclear if preimplantation frozen section biopsy correlates with outcomes after deceased donor kidney transplantation. Objective.— To assess if chronic histologic changes on the preimplant frozen section correlates with graft loss and estimated glomerular filtration rate independently of kidney donor profile index (KDPI). Design.— Seven hundred three preimplantation biopsies were reviewed and a Banff sum score was calculated using glomerular sclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, vascular intimal thickening, and arteriolar hyalinosis. The posttransplant outcomes were compared for preimplantation biopsy Banff sum 0-1, 2-3, and 4-9. The cohort was also stratified by KDPI 85 or less versus more than 85. Results.— For the entire biopsy cohort, graft survival, estimated glomerular filtration rate at 1 year and chronic changes on a 1-year posttransplant biopsy were superior in the group with preimplantation Banff sum 0-1. After stratifying by KDPI, the Banff sum no longer correlated with graft survival. In a univariate mode, using the Banff sum score as a continuous variable, a higher Banff sum score was significantly associated with graft failure (P = .03); however, after adjusting the KDPI, the Banff sum score no longer correlated with graft failure (P = .45). The 1-year estimated glomerular filtration rate and 1 year biopsy changes were superior in the group with Banff sum 0-1 only in the cohort with KDPI 85 or less. Conclusions.— In donor kidneys used for transplant, preimplantation biopsy chronic changes correlate with estimated glomerular filtration rate and biopsy findings at 1 year, but biopsies with mostly mild chronicity and sum scores less than or equal to 5 did not impact graft survival beyond KDPI.
