Cystatin C Is Not Causally Related to Coronary Artery Disease

9 Jun 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Strong and independent associations between plasma concentration of cystatin C and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) suggests causal involvement of cystatin C. AIM: The aim of our study was to assess whether there is a causal relationship between plasma concentration of cystatin C and risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) using a Mendelian Randomization approach. METHODS: We estimated the strength...
