Abstract excerpt
The estimated glomerular filtration rate is a well-known measure of renal function and is widely used to follow the course of disease. Although there have been several investigations establishing the genetic background contributing to renal function, Asian populations have rarely been used in these genome-wide studies. Here, we aimed to find candidate genetic determinants of renal function in 1007 individuals...
