When these two values differ, there is no consensus as to which is preferable to use to determine suitability for living kidney donor.

LKD acceptance was based on a nonindexed mGFR \u226580 ml\/min (age younger than 60 years) or \u226575 ml\/min (age 60 years and older).

Compared with concordant LKDs, discordant LKDs were older (median: 54.1 versus 42.8 years,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001) and had higher body mass indices (28.0 versus 26.1,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001). At 1 year postdonation, mean eGFR was higher among concordant LKDs, although the difference in relative change from predonation eGFR measurements was similar. During a median follow-up of 2.3 years, six of 66 discordant LKDs (9%) experienced sustained eGFR <45 ml\/min per 1.73 m\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n compared with five of 561 concordant LKDs (0.9%) (hazard
