Staging chronic kidney disease and estimating glomerular filtration rate: an opinion paper about the new international recommendations

Abstract: In January 2013, the international recommendations of the KDIGO (for "Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes") to define chronic kidney disease (CKD) and classify patients in CKD stages have been published. In this opinion article, we will review and discuss the most important guidelines proposed about CKD staging and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating. In particular, we question the choice of fixed knot values at 60 mL/min/1.73 m² to define CKD. We also question the strategies proposed to measure … Show more

“…Nevertheless, our results indicate that all assays are not equivalent. Surprisingly, little attention has been paid to this question in a recent KDIGO conferences report [10,15]. Our results are in line with previous studies concluding that compensated Jaffe assays should be replaced by enzymatic ones [9,16].…”

“…Differences in creatinine calibrations between North America and Europe cannot be ruled out as an explanation for the transatlantic differences in performance of MDRD and CKD-EPI. Both the MDRD and CKD-EPI equations have been developed from plasma creatinine samples measured mostly with the Jaffe assay, i.e., non-enzymatic methods, and traceability to IDMS standard has been obtained indirectly or a posteriori [32]. It should also be noted that the North American equations were established using renal clearance of iothalamate as reference, whereas single sample of plasma clearance of iohexol was used when LM Revised was developed.…”

“…Ainsi, le choix de la mé thode d'é valuation du DFG (choix du marqueur, formule d'estimation, mesure du DFG) repose sur la confrontation, à l'é chelon individuel, du besoin de pré cision imposé par la situation clinique et de la pré cision attendue de chacune de ces mé thodes. Ceci s'oppose en partie aux recommandations d'utilisation qui reposent parfois sur des considé rations plus é pidé miologiques que de pré cision [8][9][10]. En effet, aujourd'hui, le choix d'une formule d'estimation du DFG n'est pas, ou n'est plus, exclusivement basé sur ses performances intrinsè ques à estimer au mieux un DFG mesuré (DFGm) par une mé thode de ré fé rence, mais aussi sur sa capacité à pré dire la mortalité ou l'arrivé e à un stade terminal de la MRC [11].…”

“…Le même type de constatation peut être fait pour ce qui est du choix d'un seuil fixe de DFG comme dé finition de l'insuffisance ré nale chronique (60 mL/min/1,73 m 2 ). Ce seuil est en effet justifié par les mêmes arguments pré dictifs [11,16,17], alors que la diminution physiologique du DFG avec l'âge pourrait imposer une adaptation de la valeur de DFG considé ré e comme anormale en fonction de l'âge [8,9,18,19]. Ces arguments é pidé miologiques doivent cependant être reconsidé ré s en matiè re d'adaptation posologique d'un mé dicament.…”
