Cystatin C predicts cognitive decline in multiple system atrophy: A 1-year prospective cohort study
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022 BackgroundAccumulating evidence has suggested that cystatin C is associated with cognitive impairment in patients with neurodegenerative diseases. However, the association between cystatin C and cognitive decline in patients with multiple system atrophy (

Cystatin C and Subclinical Brain Infarction [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2005 Subclinical brain infarcts (SBI) are common in the elderly and are associated with covert neurologic and cognitive impairment. Although renal impairment is associated with accelerated cerebrovascular disease and an increased risk for clinically apparent brain infarct, few studies have examined the relationship between renal function and SBI, and these ...
