The common regression models included estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the continuous and categorical form for predicting the mortality in COVID-19 inpatients. However, the relationship may be non-linear, and categorizing implies a loss of information. This study aimed to assess the effect of eGFR on admission on death with...
