Correlation of Serum Cystatin C,Urinary Cystatin C and Renal Pathology in Primary Glomerulonephritis Patients of Different Patological Types / 医学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the variability of serum Cystatin C concentration and urinary Cystatin C concentration in primary glomerulonephritis patients of different patological types,and to study the correlation with renal pathological changes. Methods Urinary Cystatin C was detected before renal biopsy.The two indexes were processed by correlation analysis with glomcrulus scores and renal tubulointerstitial scores respectively.Results The differences of Serum Cystatin C concentration and urinary Cystatin C concentration in IgA nephropathy(IgAN) group,focal segmental glomerulosclerosis group and membranous nephropathy group existed statistical significance as compared to normal control (P
