The Cre/CysC Ratio Can Predict Muscle Composition and is Associated with Glucose Disposal Ability and Macrovascular Disease in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract: Background: Since the ratio of creatinine to cystatin C (Cre/CysC) can re ect muscle volume, it has been proven to be a predictor of sarcopenia in patients with or without diabetes. Here, we investigated the predictive value of Cre/CysC in skeletal muscle composition and its correlations with glucose disposal ability and diabetic complications in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: The skeletal muscle index (SMI) and mean skeletal muscle attenuation (MMA) values of 193 patients with type 2 diabetes were ob… Show more
