N/A

  1. eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, IQR interquartile range, N/A not applicable, SD standard deviation
  2. eGFR was calculated by MDRD [7] and is expressed in mL/min/1.73 sqm. Renal stiffness was assessed for 19 patients by one trained operator through shear-waves elastography on Aixplorer (SuperSonic Imagine, Aix-en-Provence, France)
