What are eGFR normal levels?

>90ml/min.


What is the value 139 egfr if africn am?

The value of 139 eGFR (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) indicates that kidney function is above the normal range, as a typical eGFR is considered normal between 90 to 120 mL/min/1.73 m². In the context of African American individuals, it's important to note that eGFR calculations often include a correction factor due to differing muscle mass, which can imply that the eGFR might be interpreted differently than in other populations. Therefore, while 139 is a high value suggesting good kidney function, individual health conditions and demographics should also be taken into account for a comprehensive assessment.


What does it mean if my African American eGFR is 90 And my non African American eGFR is 74?

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.
