Text: A significantly better creatinine clearance at 12 months, estimated by Cockcroft-Gault (57 + / -12, 65. 2 + / -20, 73. 5 + / -27 ml/min, P = 0. 044), the Jelliffe-2 (51. 5 + / -16, 56 + / -19, 59. 4 + / -19 ml/min/1. 73 m2, P = 0. 041) and the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equations (53 + / -17, 58. 5 + / -20, 61. 6 + / -22 ml/min/1. 73 m2, P = 0. 035), was observed in group C compared with group A. No significant differences were observed between groups B and C.
