The incidence of both acute and chronic kidney diseases is persistently increasing and is
reaching epidemic proportions. Early therapeutic intervention may significantly decrease the …

Abstract Background Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) is a secretory
protein of neutrophils that can be found both in plasma and urine. Previous works have …

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication that occurs in a broad spectrum of
clinical settings. Cardiac surgery-associated AKI continues to be a well-recognized …

Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a small 25-kDa protein released from
kidney tubular cells after harmful stimuli. It represents one of the most promising future …

Abstract Background and Aim: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is derived
from the distal tubule and is both reabsorbed and filtered and also shed into the urine after …

Background: Several recent studies have shown that neutrophil gelatinase-associated
lipocalin (NGAL) may be a promising biomarker for the early detection of acute kidney injury …

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common complications of various serious
conditions, and early diagnosis is therefore critical for the treatment of AKI. Increase of the …

Background The early prediction of acute kidney injury (AKI) by current clinical and
laboratory methods remains inadequate. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) …

Background Acute kidney injury has been recognized as a major contributor to end stage
renal disease. Although neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (Ngal) has been reported …

The incidence of both acute kidney injury (AKI, previously referred to as acute renal failure)
and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is reaching epidemic proportions. In both situations, early …
