Abstract :
It has been suggested that Cystatin C, besides its function as a marker of glomerular filtration, could be an independent marker of cardiovascular disease. However, studies on this topic are few and results have been indecisive. Our aim was to further investigate the subject of Cystatin C as an independent marker of peripheral atherosclerotic disease.
