Background: Accurately determining renal function is essential for clinical management of HIV patients. Classically, it has been evaluated by estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) with the MDRD-equation, but today there is evidence that the new Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation has greater diagnostic accuracy. To date, however, little information exists on patients with HIV-infection. This study aimed to evaluate eGFR by CKD-EPI vs. MDRD equations and to stratify renal function according to KDIGO guidelines. Methods: Cross-sectional, single center study including adult patients with HIV-infection. Results: Four thousand five hundred three patients with HIV-infection (864 women
19%) were examined. Median age was 45 years (IQR 37-52), and median baseline creatinine was 0.93 mg/dL (IQR 0.82-1.05). A similar distribution of absolute measures of eGFR was found using both formulas (p = 0.548). Baseline median eGFR was 95.2 and 90.4 mL/min/ 1.73 m(2) for CKD-EPI and MDRD equations (p < 0.001), respectively. Of the 4503 measurements, 4109 (91.2%) agreed, with a kappa index of 0.803. MDRD classified 7.3% of patients as '' mild reduced GFR '' who were classified as '' normal function '' with CKD-EPI. Using CKD-EPI, it was possible to identify '' normal function '' (>90 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) in 73% patients and '' mild reduced GFR '' (60-89 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) in 24.3% of the patients, formerly classified as >60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) with MDRD. Conclusions: There was good correlation between CKD-EPI and MDRD. Estimating renal function using CKD-EPI equation allowed better staging of renal function and should be considered the method of choice. CKD-EPI identified a significant proportion of patients (24%) with mild reduced GFR (60-89 mL/min/1.73 m(2)).
