Changes in Serum Cystatin C Levels and the Associations With Cognitive Function in Alzheimer's Disease Patients

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Background and ObjectiveCystatin C is indicated to be involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and cognitive impairment. Our objective is to examine the serum Cystatin C levels, and to clarify the correlations between serum Cystatin C and

Cystatin C and Aging Success [PDF]

Archives of Internal Medicine, 2008
To our knowledge, the effect of kidney function on successful aging has not been examined.We evaluated the relationship between cystatin C and aging success during a 6-year follow-up in the Cardiovascular Health Study, a community-based cohort of older adults (aged >or= 65 years). Successful aging was defined as remaining free of cardiovascular disease,

Serum cystatin C is an independent biomarker associated with the renal resistive index in patients with chronic kidney disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Cystatin C is a cysteine protease inhibitor that is produced by nearly all human cells. The serum level of cystatin C is a stronger predictor of the renal outcome and the risk of cardiovascular events than the creatinine level.

Creatinine and Cystatin C [PDF]

Circulation, 2018
Article, see p 2016 The current perception, based on data from earlier studies, is that worsening renal function (WRF) during diuresis of patients with acute heart failure (HF) means that the therapy is overzealous and exposes the patients to permanent kidney injury and increased mortality.1 Underlying this view is the assumption that increased serum

Kadar Cystatin-C Serum Sebagai Penanda Fungsi Ginjal Bayi Prematur

Sari Pediatri, 2016
Latar belakang. Cystatin-C dipertimbangkan menjadi pemeriksaan potensial pengganti kreatinin serum sebagai penanda fungsi ginjal. Kadar cystatin-C serum lebih mendekati nilai laju filtrasi glomerulus dibandingkan dengan kreatinin serum.

Serum Cystatin C for Estimation of GFR

JAMA, 2022
An 80-year-old man with type 2 diabetes and hypertension was referred to the nephrology clinic for persistent hyperkalemia. The patient was frail and sedentary, with a BMI of 37. His estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated using creatinine was 64 mL/min/1.73 m2. How would you interpret these results?

Cystatin-C is an independent prognostic factor for survival in multiple myeloma and is reduced by bortezomib administration

Haematologica, 2009
Background Renal impairment is a common complication of multiple myeloma. Cystatin-C is considered an accurate marker of glomerular filtration rate in several renal disorders.

Clinical utility of serum cystatin C for prediction of multi-vessel disease by coronary angiography in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with normal renal function

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate whether serum cystatin C could serve as a predictor of multivessel coronary artery disease identified by coronary angiography in type 2 diabetes patients with normal renal function and to suggest the ...

Cystatin C uptake in the eye [PDF]

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology, 2004
As a secreted protein, cystatin C is assumed to play its role in the extracellular compartment, where it can inhibit virtually all cysteine proteases of families C1 (cathepsin B, L, S) and C13 (mammalian legumain-related proteases). Since many of its potential target enzymes in the eye reside in intracellular compartments, we sought evidence for a ...
