Project description
The aim is to develop a model for predicting UCE and to assess the performance of a creatinine index using para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) as a reference. The present study showed that UCE can be predicted from weight, age and sex. However, a creatinine index based on these predictions is not sufficiently sensitive to exclude incomplete 24 h urine collections
