Cystatin C and Cardiovascular Disease: A Mendelian Randomization Study

2020-04-18

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological studies show that high circulating cystatin C is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), independent of creatinine-based renal function measurements. It is unclear whether this relationship is causal, arises from residual confounding, and/or is a consequence of reverse causation.
