Abstract

Background & Aims: In the past serum CREATININE concentration was used as one of the important markers for early detection of kidney disorders, however recent studies suggest serum CYSTATIN C to be a better marker. Therefore in this study we compared the diagnostic value of CYSTATIN C with serum CREATININE to evaluate KIDNEY FUNCTION in patients with high BLOOD PRESSURE.Materials & Methods: This clinical trial study was conducted on high BLOOD PRESSURE patients referring to Mehrad hospital during 1387-1389 for checking their KIDNEY FUNCTION. Cobasmira automated analyzer was used to determine serum CREATININE. The serum CYSTATIN C was measured using ELISA method. The glomerular filtration rate was determined by measuring 24hr CREATININE clearance.Positive and negative predictive value, sensitivity and specificity of CYSTATIN C and CREATININE were determined.Results: We studied 35 patients with high BLOOD PRESSURE (20 men and 15 women mean age, 49±11).This research work showed that positive predictive value and negative predictive value of CREATININE were 94.3% and 31% respectively. And for CYSTATIN C, were 92.3% and 44% respectively.The false positive and negative result for serum CREATININE method were 2.8% and 31.4% and for CYSTATIN C were 5.7% and 14.2% respectively.Total accuracy of CYSTATIN C was 90% and CREATININE was 65.8%. Finally based on results obtained from this study CYSTATIN C had a sensitivity of 82 % and specificity of 57% and serum CREATININE had sensitivity of 62 % and specificity of 41% for detecting crcl<78 ml/min/1.73m2.Conclusion: It seems that measurement of serum CYSTATIN C can be applied to detect the reduction of KIDNEY FUNCTION in the primary stages of kidney disorder.
