Abstract
Background and Aims: A new syndrome called "Shrunken Pore Syndrome" has been suggested, as the estimated glomerular filtration rate for cystatin C (eGFRcystatin C) is affected earlier due to differences in molecular size compared to eGFRcreatinine. The aim was to investigate if a lower eGFRcystatin C/eGFRcreatinine ratio in a prospective setting increases the risk of later developing a first-ever myocardial infarction (MI) independently of other cardiovascular risk factors.
