The present invention relates to the field of nephrology. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions useful for more precisely estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR). In a specific embodiment, a method for calculating the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in a patient comprises the steps of (a) measuring the level of one or more metabolites using mass spectrometry from a blood sample obtained from the patient; and (b) calculating the eGFR using an algorithm that utilizes the measured levels of the one or more metabolites.

Methods using a combination of metabolomics and computer technology to determine sequence variants with potential negative or detrimental effects and enable the classification of a variant with an unknown or uncertain clinical significance from VUS status to benign, pathogenic or advantageous are described. For example, methods of using metabolomics to expedite personalized medicine based on genomic sequence analysis are described. Using metabolic profiles to determine (or aid in determining) the significance of genetic variants and enable the identification of diagnostic variants (those variants having a detrimental health affect) for use in personalized medicine is described. Further, using metabolic profiles to determine the presence of advantageous variants that may have a positive effect on patient health is also described.
