Why #kidney function does not equal #GFR (and certainly not Cr), making it an elusive target in clinical practice & the latter a poor surrogate outcome, despite its robust correlation with prognosis. Caring for kidneys versus improving Cr/GFR. A thread below:
The kidneys in essence have 3 functions:
1. Glomerular function = Clearance
2. Tubular function = Homeostasis
3. Neurohumoral function
GFR mainly reflects 1. So why do we take GFR (or its estimate Cr) as a surrogate for renal function?

Look at GFR determinants (=N x snGFR).
In stable circumstances, GFR mainly reflects the number of functional nephrons.
Starting from 1 million per kidney at birth, one loses 5,000-10,000 per year with aging: age-related GFR decline <1 mL/min/1.73m²/y
