The two equations are of Cockcroft & Gault (CG) (1976) formula and MDRD (modification of Diet in Renal Disease) (1999) formula, these two models allow the assessment of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by calculating creatinine clearance (CLCR).To make a comparison between these two formulas different models were examined for Subjects with normal renal function, Patients with renal impairment, Diabetic patients, Age and sex, finally lean and obese patients by modeling two algorithms with the two functions. Results show that the formula of Cockcroft & Gault remains the method of choice for estimating renal function in clinical practice
