Study on Cystatin C as an Early Biomarker of Nephropathy in Patients with Type-2 Diabetes
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a syndrome associated with chronic hyperglycemia due to relative insulin deficiency, resistance, or both. Our aim to evaluate the clinical usefulness of cystatin C levels in the serum in predicting renal impairment in patients with type 2 diabetes. Thus, we explored the possibility of the cystatin C levels of serum and urine as markers of early renal impairment in normoalbuminuric patients with diabetes. We also evaluated the relationship of albuminuria and serum/urine cystatin C.
