Changes in dietary protein intake has no effect on serum cystatin C levels independent of the glomerular filtration rate

Cystatin C is being considered as a replacement for serum creatinine for estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Data are limited on the non-GFR determinants of cystatin C and their relationship with protein intake. We compared creatinine and cystatin C levels at baseline (N=741) and at 24 mont...
