A new equation for calculating a person's kidney function — their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) — worked as well with serum cystatin C as it did with serum creatinine as the biomarker.

Excel can solve equations through several of its mathematical functions, but the single Excel tool that works on the largest variety of equations is the program's Solver Add-in. This tool reads an ...

A function machine is a way of writing rules using a flow diagram. The equation \(3h - 6 = 9\) can be shown on a function machine by writing out the functions that have been applied to \(h\) in the ...

Researchers have identified an approach to remove race from equations used to estimate a person’s kidney function. These equations have been criticized for potentially perpetuating racial health ...
