Experiment summary

This study is a meta-analysis of genetic associations with creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR-creat), cystatin-based eGFR (eGFR-cys), and blood urea nitrogen in more than 1.2 million participants from the Chronic Kidney Disease Genetics Consortium (CKDGen) and UK Biobank.
