Indeed, a research interface between nephrology and neurology is essential to understand mechanism of stroke and its therapeutics in patients with kidney disease. We totally agree with Dr Power that using a single calculated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) value resembles a snapshot of renal function only. Several preadmission measurements and complementary tests would have allowed for a more detailed picture of renal function.1 Having said that, it would have been difficult to obtain these measurements before stroke in our research …
