Cystatin C and renal function in pediatric kidney transplant recipients [PDF]
, 2009 In clinical practice, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is often determined with serum creatinine. However, studies have shown cystatin C to be a better parameter for the diagnosis of impaired renal function.

To compare the level of cystatin C in type 2 diabetes mellitus with obesity
Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020 Background: Cystatin C is a non-glycosylated basic protein that is produced and secreted at a constant rate by all nucleated cells. Cystatin C is a more reliable marker than the serum creatinine because it is less affected by external factors such as ...

Cystatin C Is Not Causally Related to Coronary Artery Disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Strong and independent associations between plasma concentration of cystatin C and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) suggests causal involvement of cystatin C.The aim of our study was to assess whether there is a causal relationship between plasma ...

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

Improved estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by comparison of eGFRcystatin C and eGFRcreatinine [PDF]
, 2012 Objective. GFR-prediction equations based upon cystatin C and creatinine have better diagnostic performance in estimating GFR than equations based upon only one of the two markers.

Area preserving isotopies of self transverse immersions of S^1 in R^2 [PDF]
Ark. Mat., 51(1):85-97, 2013, 2016 Let C and C' be two smooth self transverse immersions of S^1 into R^2. Both C and C' subdivide the plane into a number of disks and one unbounded component. An isotopy of the plane which takes C to C' induces a 1-1 correspondence between the disks of C and C'.
