Relationship of serum cystatin C with C-reactive protein and apolipoprotein A1 in patients on hemodialysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a complex syndrome of acute nephropathy that occurs following infusion of intravascular contrast agents, and is associated with an increased risk for adverse cardiovascular events. While there is no ideal biomarker for making an early diagnosis of CIN, we hypothesized th...
