N2 - Accurate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation is crucial for diagnosing kidney disease and prescribing renal risk medications [1-3]. In clinical practice, estimated GFR (eGFR) is typically determined by plasma creatinine levels adjusted for age and sex (eGFRcre) [4]. However, creatinine is an imperfect metric of GFR, particularly in older (age ≥ 65 years) hospitalized patients, due to age-related changes in non-GFR factors such as muscle mass and nutritional status that affect creatinine level [5]. The addition of cystatin C to creatinine (eGFRcomb) improves the accuracy of GFR estimates for older hospitalized patients, but there remains a large and unpredictable margin of error compared with measured GFR (mGFR)
