مستخلص: The article informs about how racial differences in healthcare primarily reflect dose exposure to racism and other social determinants of health linked to racism. It also mentions how the impetus to examine the use of race in renal function started when a small group of physicians learned that leading institutions, such as Massachusetts General Hospital, removed race from their Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) in an effort to reduce the harms of race based medicine.
