“…Two further studies, which did notemploy a gold standard method for GFR, confirmed that cystatin C better differentiates GFR values among type 1 [18] and type 2 [16,18] diabetic patients. Two studies [13,19], on the other hand, showed that cystatinC is not more sensitive than creatinine for detecting early renal failure. Such discrepancies may be attributable at least in part tointraassay variations for creatinine and cystatin C measurements related to differences in assay techniques.…”

“…Several studies have used direct measures of GFR as the gold standard to compare cystatin C with creatinine and creatinine-derived estimates of GFR [11]. Several studies have also been conducted on diabetic patients [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] in whom cystatin C seems to out-perform creatinine-based estimations [12,[14][15][16][17][18]20,21]. The clinical utility of cystatin still remains uncertain [22].…”

“…The only exception is the study by Oddoze et al (95) in which the performance of creatinine can be considered to be abnormally good. Perlemoine et al did not find CysC to offer any advantage in detecting GFR -80 mL/min/1.73 m 2 , except in the sub-group of patients with a creatinine of less than 1 mg/dL (88 mmol/L) (96). Of these different studies, the study by Pucci et al which examined 288 diabetic patients (both types) with GFR measurement by plasma iohexol clearance and a wide range of GFR is undoubtedly one of the most important studies (162).…”

“…Caroline pedemoine et al evaluated in their study [53] that cystatin C as a marker of renal impairment in a large population of diabetic patients. Cystatin C was well correlated with GFR, and its diagnostic accuracy was comparable to that of creatinine.…”

“…Cystatin C was well correlated with GFR, and its diagnostic accuracy was comparable to that of creatinine. The high sensitivity of cystatin C and its diagnostic accuracy at low creatinine levels makes it a good prediction of later renal impairment in diabetic patients, especially as the value of micro albuminuna in there patients has been questioned by recent work [53].…”
