Abstract

Objective: The Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE) is a useful tool for predicting chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression to end-stage renalkidney disease (ESRD). It has been validated in various countries populations. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of the KFRE model in a Turkish CKD cohort.
Materials and Methods: In a prior retrospective study at a single center, the 4-variable KFRE model's accuracy in predicting end-stage renal disease (ESRD) progression was assessed. Among 246 stage 3 or 4 CKD individuals, two-year risk predictions categorized participants into low-intermediate (

Key words: Chronic kidney disease, kidney failure risk equation, end-stage renal disease
