risk_pred_core: KFRE risk prediction for a single person

Description

Computes the Kidney Failure Risk Equation probability at 2 or 5 years.

Usage

risk_pred_core(
  age,
  sex,
  eGFR,
  uACR,
  is_north_american,
  dm = NULL,
  htn = NULL,
  albumin = NULL,
  phosphorous = NULL,
  bicarbonate = NULL,
  calcium = NULL,
  years = 2
)

Value

Numeric probability between 0 and 1.

Arguments

age: Numeric age in years.
sex: Integer sex indicator, 1 for male, 0 for female.
eGFR: Estimated glomerular filtration rate, mL/min/1.73 \(\text{m}^{2}\).
uACR: Urine albumin to creatinine ratio, mg/g.
is_north_american: Logical, patient from a North American cohort.
dm: Optional integer diabetes indicator, 1 yes, 0 no.
htn: Optional integer hypertension indicator, 1 yes, 0 no.
albumin: Optional serum albumin, g/dL, required for 8 variable model.
phosphorous: Optional serum phosphorus, mg/dL, 8 variable model.
bicarbonate: Optional serum bicarbonate, mmol/L, 8 variable model.
calcium: Optional serum calcium, mg/dL, 8 variable model.
years: Integer, prediction horizon, 2 or 5.
