Study examines how elimination of race-based adjustments in kidney function estimates impacts clinical trials

Considerable controversy surrounds race-based algorithms in medicine - such as an adjustment for Black race in equations that estimate individuals' kidney function. A new study in CJASN has examined the impact of changes to these equations on the inclusion of Black participants in kidney disease–related clinical trials, and on the results of such trials.
