Early identification and diagnosis of sepsis are very important because timely appropriate treatment can improve the survival outcomes.The aim this study was to explore clinical significance serum cystatin C level in sepsis.The levels C, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) were measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The patients with followed up for 30 days record their conditions.The expression remarkably elevated compared that healthy controls. significantly correlated SOFA score CRP, PCT, creatinine sepsis. death group had a markedly higher than those group. area under curve (AUC) assessing 30-day mortality rate 0.765.The is it may serve as biomarker early possess promising effects severity prognosis patients.
