kidney.epi: Kidney-Related Functions for Clinical and Epidemiological Research

Contains kidney care oriented functions. Current version contains functions for calculation of: - Estimated glomerular filtration rate by CKD-EPI (2021 and 2009), MDRD, CKiD, FAS, EKFC, etc. - Kidney Donor Risk Index and Kidney Donor Profile Index for kidney transplant donors. - Citation: Bikbov B. kidney.epi: Kidney-Related Functions for Clinical and Epidemiological Research.
