  ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate the link between changes in a subject’s serum uric acid levels and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Japanese women. We used data for 161 Japanese women (49.8 ± 11.7 years) with a 1-year follow up. eGFR was defined by a new equation developed for Japan. eGFR was negatively correlated with serum uric acid levels (r = -0.402, p p
