A member asked:

What does egfr female 51l and egfr female aa and creatinine 1.08 mg/dl. anything to worry about? thank you!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Estimated GFR: I don't know that 51L or AA mean. But these "estimates" are subscientific. I'm not the only pathologist who believes that this stuff -- which includes an adjustment for race "because black people are more muscular" -- is best ignored. A creatinine of 1.08 is no concern whatever for a mature woman. Be thankful for good health.
