Preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate as a significant predictor of long-term outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting in Japanese patients

Abstract
The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the effect of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and to determine whether preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) can be a predictor of long-term outcomes after CABG.
