Cystatin C continues to show its superiority over serum creatinine in predicting mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This superiority is, in part, due to the non-glomerular filtration rate (GFR) determinants of cystatin C associating with CKD risk factors and outcomes. The definition and classification of CKD should not exclusively equate cystatin C with GFR.
半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂 C 在预测慢性肾脏病 (CKD) 患者死亡率方面继续优于血清肌酐。这种优越性部分归因于半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂 C 的非肾小球滤过率 (GFR) 决定因素与 CKD 危险因素和结局相关。CKD 的定义和分类不应将半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂 C 与 GFR 等同起来。
