Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of serum cystatin C (Cys-C) and
high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in coronary heart disease (CHD)
patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods: One hundred and twenty-eight CHD patients were divided into drug treatment
(56 cases) and PCI treatment (72 cases) groups, receiving conventional drug
