Elevated concentrations of cystatin C are associated with greater cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We sought to determine whether elevated concentrations of cystatin C were associated with inducible ischemia in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). We measured serum cystatin C and performed exercise treadmill testing with stress echocardiography in a cross-sectional study of 899 outpatients with CHD. Among the 241 participants in the highest quartile of cystatin C (>1.30 mg/L), 38% had inducible ischemia, compared with 13% of those in the lowest quartile of cystatin C <0.92 mg/L; adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 2.1; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.2 to 3.8; p = 0.01). However, this association differed in participants with and without a history of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), as well as in users and nonusers of beta-blockers and statins (p values for interaction <0.1). Among participants without a history of CABG, 35% of those in the highest quartile and 9% of those in the lowest quartile of cystatin C had inducible ischemia (adjusted OR: 3.05; 95% CI: 1.3–6.9; p = 0.008). Among participants who were not using beta-blockers, 44% of those in the highest quartile and 7% in the lowest quartile of cystatin C had inducible ischemia (adjusted OR: 5.3; 95% CI: 1.8–15.5; p = 0.002). Among participants who were not using statins, 39% of participants in the highest quartile and 4% of those in the lowest quartile had inducible ischemia (adjusted OR: 10.3; 95% CI: 2.5–43.3; p = 0.001). Elevated levels of cystatin C are independently associated with inducible ischemia among outpatients with stable coronary disease.
