Association of estimated glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine and cystatin C with new-onset diabetes: a nationwide cohort study in China

The association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the risk of diabetes remains uncertain. We aimed to examine the association between eGFR based on creatinine (eGFRcr), cystatin C (eGFRcys), or a combination of both (eGFRcr-cys) and new-onset diabetes, using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), a nationally representative cohort study. A total of 4,775 participants with pertinent...
