A Single Reference Interval for Interpreting Serum Free Light Chains across Patients with Varying Renal Function.

Renally robust sFLC interpretation using a single reference interval is possible given a reference cohort that reflects the variation in renal function observed in practice. Further studies are needed to achieve sufficient power and determine if the novel PCA-based metric offers superior sensitivity for MG diagnosis. These new methods offer the practical advantages of not requiring an estimated glomerular filtration rate result or multiple reference intervals, thereby lowering practical barriers to implementation.
