The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a measure of kidney function. The difference in eGFR values between African American and non-African American categories reflects a correction factor used in the calculation to account for differences in muscle mass and other physiological factors. An eGFR of 90 indicates normal kidney function for African Americans, while an eGFR of 74 suggests slightly decreased kidney function for non-African Americans. It’s important to consult a healthcare professional for a comprehensive assessment and interpretation of these values in the context of your overall health.
