Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

GFR- stands for glomerular filtration rate and it is one of the best estimates of kidney function.
In most healthy persons , it is greater than 90.

CKD- epi refer to chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration equation.

This is the equation used to calculate a persons GFR..

AA- XXXXXXX XXXXXXX non AA- non XXXXXXX XXXXXXX

The distinction is important XXXXXXX americans have a higher GFR than caucasians.
The number is multiplied by approximately 1.2 if the person is XXXXXXX XXXXXXX which is the reason that value is higher.

In either case, your value is greater than 90, which is good

According to this, you do not have chronic kidney disease

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
