GFR estimation using the 3rd formula proposed by Stevens et al. (Am J Kidney Dis 2008), which combines creatinine and cystatin C
Stevens.creat.cys(creatinine, cystatin, sex, age, ethnicity)
The function returns a numeric vector with eGFR values in ml/min/1.73 \(m^2\).
Numeric vector with serum or plasma creatinine values in mg/dl
Numeric vector with serum or plasma cystatin C values in mg/l
Numeric vector with 0 for females and 1 for males
Numeric vector with age in years
Numeric vector with 0 for non-Black and 1 for Black individuals
