“…However, we propose that two potential mechanisms might be responsible for the association of cystatin C with no-reflow after PPCI. First, cystatin C has been implicated in the local and systemic inflammatory response, and high cystatin C levels have been found to be strongly associated with high concentrations of CRP [22][23][24]. In the present study, we also found a significant positive correlation between high cystatin C levels and increased hs-CRP concentrations.…”

“…Increased levels of CysC were found to be an independent predictor of CV events (cardiac death, nonfatal MI or unstable angina) at 6-month to 1-year follow-up of patients with non-ST elevation ACS compared to highsensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and sCr. 36,37 CysC was also found to be the most valuable parameter compared to CRP, N-terminal proBNP, and troponin I in prediction of LV dysfunction progression in patients with a first STEMI. 38 Moreover, in a group of 240 patients admitted to the hospital with acute exacerbation of HF, CysC level was significantly associated with risk of death or rehospitalization during 1-year followup.…”

“…Several studies currently evaluate the prognostic performances of cardiovascular biomarkers measured in the acute phase of a myocardial infarction (MI) on case series including both patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and MI with non-ST-elevation at electrocardiogram (ECG) (NSTEMI) [1,2]. However the mixing of these two populations of patients contrasts with the definition of acute MI stating STEMI and NSTEMI as two distinct pathophysiologic entities according to the presence/absence of electrocardiographic ischemic changes [3].…”
