Aim. To compare kidney disease markers: glomerular filtration rate (GFR), calculated upon creatinine and cystatin C, urinary cystatin C, collagen type IV and albumin in type 2 diabetic patients with normal and moderately reduced renal function. Materials and methods. 56 patients, aged 43?70 years, and 16 healthy controls, aged 40-72 years, were included in the study. GFR was calculated by equations based on creatinine (CKD-EPIcreat), cystatin C (CKD-EPIcys) or both markers (CKD-EPIcreat-cys). Serum and urinary cystatin C was measured by immunoturbidimetric method, urinary albumin, albumin excretion rate (AER) and collagen type IV excretion was determined by ELISA. The body composition was investigated in 24 patients by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Results. In diabetic patients serum cystatin C level correlated positively with age (r=0.37), GFR calculated by CKD-EPIcreat (r=-0.43) and fat mass percentage (r=0.55). There was a positive correlation between GFR calculated by the CKD-EPIcys and GFR by CKD-EPIcreat (r=0.48). In multiple regression analysis the percentage of body fat influenced the GFR calculated by CKD-EPIcys or CKD-EPIcreat-cys. No correlation between urinary cystatin C and serum cystatin C level, GFR and AER was found. Collagen type IV excretion was increased in patients with decreased GFR, compared to those with normal GFR (p=0.002). Urinary collagen type IV correlated with both GFR and AER (r=-0.28 and r=0.47). Conclusion. The measurement of serum cystatin C with calculation of GFR by CKD-EPIcys and CKD-EPIcreat-cys, in addition to the CKD-EPIcreat, increases the accuracy of CKD diagnostics in type 2 diabetic patients. However, obesity and particularly body fat mass affect the results of estimation of GFR based on cystatin C. The increase in urinary collagen type IV, but not in cystatin C excretion, is related to GFR decline and AER elevation in these patients.

Aims: to investigate serum Cystatin C level, correlation between serum Cystatin C levels with albuminuria, estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and renal radiography in type 2 diabetic patients. Materials and methods: We studied 77 healthy subjects without prediabetes or diabetes, and 70 type 2 diabetic patients. We excluded patients with thyroid dysfunction and those taking glucocorticoids that affect the serum Cystatin level. The serum Cystatin C level measured in 2 groups. In type 2 diabetic patients, we measured renal radiography, albuminuria, and estimated GFR using CKD.EPI 2012 formular. Descriptive and cross-sectional study. A statistical analyses of the data was performed using SPSS, Excel 2003. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis, calculated the area under the curve (AUC) for serum Cystatin C. Results: The level of serum Cystatin C in the type 2 diabetic patients was significantly higher than in the control group (1.45±0.97, 0.97±0.23 mg/L, p<0.001, respectively). The level of serum Cystatin C showed stepwise increase with albuminuria level. The serum cystatin C level in the macroalbuminuria group was significantly higher than microalbuminuria group (2,51±1,13; 1,12±0.69 mg//l, p<0.05, respectively). A positively correlation was observed between eGFR according to CKD.EPI equation based on serum Cystatin C and renal radiography (r=0.710, p<0.001). The positively correlation between eGFR according to CKD.EPI equation based on serum Creatinine-Cystatin C and renal radiography r=0.746, p<0.001). The serum Cystatin C level was significantly higher in patients with GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73m2 than those with ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73m2 (p < 0,001). Serum Cystatin C level was significantly reciprocal correlation between eGFR based on cystatin C serum (r=0.830, p<0.001) or renal radiography (r=0,748, p<0,001). The cutoff value for the identification of GFR < 60ml/min/1.73m2 was 1.28mg/l with a sensitivity of 100.0 (95% CI: 85,6-100,0) and specificity of 95.7 (95%CI:85.1-99.3). AUC was 0,992. Conclusions: The serum cystatin C level in type 2 diabetic patients was significantly higher than the control group. The serum level of Cystatin C in type 2 diabetic patients was stepwise increased with albuminuria level. There was a positive correlation between eGFR based on Cystatin C and renal radiography.

ObjectiveSerum cystatin C (CysC) is a sensitive marker of kidney function and recent studies have shown that CysC plays a critical role in degenerative diseases in both the central and the peripheral nervous systems. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between serum CysC and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with type 2 diabetes.MethodsIn total, 937 type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Serum CysC concentration was measured by immunoturbidimetry. DPN was evaluated by neurological symptoms, neurological signs, neurothesiometer, and electromyogram.ResultsSerum CysC levels were significantly higher in DPN patients (1.3 (1.1–1.5) mg/l) compared with patients with signs of DPN (1.1 (0.9–1.3) mg/l, P<0.001) and non-DPN patients (1.0 (0.9–1.3) mg/l, P<0.001). Multiple regression analysis revealed that DPN was associated with age, diabetes duration, HbA1c, and serum CysC. Spearman's correlation analysis showed that serum CysC was closely related with age, sex, diabetes duration, hypertension, glomerular infiltration rate, and serum creatinine (Cr) level. The patients were divided into quartiles according to the serum CysC levels. Compared with quartile 1 (referent), the risk of DPN was significantly higher in quartile 2 (odds ratio (OR), 1.753; 95% CI, 1.055–2.912; P<0.05), quartile 3 (OR, 2.463; 95% CI, 1.445–4.917; P<0.01), and quartile 4 (OR, 5.867; 95% CI, 2.075–16.589; P<0.01). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed that the optimal cutoff point of serum CysC to indicate DPN was 1.25 mg/l in male patients and 1.05 mg/l in female patients. High serum CysC level indicated a onefold higher risk of DPN.ConclusionsHigh serum CysC level is closely associated with DPN and may be a potential biomarker for DPN in type 2 diabetic patients.

Diabetic nephropathy is one of the most common complications in diabetes mellitus (DM). The ability to assess renal function in diabetes patients rapidly and early is of major importance. Nowadays, cystatin C (cys C) is introduced as a new marker for diagnosis of early renal damage. The purpose of this study was to study serum cys C in type 2 diabetic patients with early renal damage. This is a hospital-based, cross-sectional analytical study involving 50 cases of type 2 diabetic patients attending the Diabetic Clinic of Mandalay General Hospital. In this study, most cases were females with male to female ratio of 1:2. Mean age was 59±11.9. Mean values of serum cys C, albumim creatinine ratio (ACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were 0.89±0.37 mg/l, 18.46±16.47 mg/g and 92.34±22.63 ml/min, respectively. In this study, 60% of cases were eGFR 60-90 ml/min and 40% of cases were eGFR >90 ml/min. And then, 82% of cases were normoalbuminuria and 18% of cases were microalbuminuria. Serum cys C was negatively correlated with eGFR (r=-0.0235, p=0.1) and positively correlated with urine for ACR (r=0.177, p=0.219). In addition, serum cys C was positively correlated with normoalbuminuria (r=0.188, p=0.238) and negatively correlated with microalbuminuria (r=-0.008, p=0.984). But these are not statistically significant. Therefore, this study is concluded that serum cys C was higher in both normoalbuminuric and microalbuminuric type 2 diabetic patients. The correlations of serum cys C with microalbuminuria and normoalbuminuria were not statistically significant. Therefore, it is controversial to say that serum cys C can be used as early detection marker of renal damage in type 2 diabetic patients in this study.
