ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Several studies showed that increased arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is known as a marker for large vessel stiffness. Recent studies show that serum cystatin C is associated with PWV and may predict future cardiovascular events, even in subjects with normal renal function. However, there have been few studies for the relationship between cystatin C and arterial stiffness in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In this study, we investigated the relationship between serum cystatin C and branchial-ankle PWV in T2DM patients with normal renal function.METHODS:
Patients with urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) higher than 300 microg albumin/mg creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 60 mL/min were excluded. A total of 88 patients (47 male/41 female; age, 59+/-2 years; ACR, 33+/-5 microg/mg) were included. Doppler-derived aortic PWV and serum cystatin C were measured.RESULTS:
Cystatin C is significantly related to age (r=0.51, P<0.001), hemoglobin A1c (r=-0.23, P<0.05), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (r=-0.22, P<0.05), apoprotein A (r=-0.22, P<0.05), and eGFR (r=-0.56, P<0.001). Aortic PWV is significantly associated with age (r=0.29, P<0.01), cystatin C (r=0.33, P<0.005), and eGFR (r=-0.24, P<0.05). In multiple regression analysis, there is significant association between aortic PWV and serum cystatin C levels.CONCLUSION:
Serum cystatin C is significantly associated with arterial stiffness in T2DM patients with normal renal function. Our results suggest that cystatin C could be a marker for early atherosclerosis in T2DM patients.
