The skeletal muscle mass are decreased in the patients with hypercortisolism. Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is not accurately evaluated by calculation from serum creatinine (eGFRcre) in these patients. However, it is not known whether it applies to patients with subclinical hypercortisolism. We investigated the dissociation between eGFRcre and eGFR calculated from cystatin C (eGFRcys) in patients with subclinical hypercortisolism and its association with the skeletal muscle mass. This cross-sectional study includes 23 patients …
