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 serious complication of acute pancreatitis (AP), which occurs in
up to 70% of patients with severe AP and significantly increases the risk of mortality. At …

Identifying new AKI biomarkers is a priority in pediatric nephrology research because of the
morbidity associated with AKI, as well as the lack of therapies for AKI. Recent research …

Purpose Neutrophil gelatin lipase carrier protein (NGAL) has been used as an early
biomarker to predict acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the predictive value of NGAL in …

Acute kidney injury is common in hospitalised children and is associated with poor patient
outcomes. Once acute kidney injury occurs, effective therapies to improve patient outcomes …

Background Pediatric cardiac surgery is commonly associated with acute kidney injury (AKI)
and significant fluid retention, which complicate postoperative management and lead to …

Purpose The study aim is to determine whether serum and urine interleukin-6 (IL-6) and
neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) can be included in the early diagnostic …

Purpose To compare the application of three standardized definitions of acute kidney injury
(AKI), using corrected serum creatinine values, in children immediately after liver …

OBJECTIVE To screen for the presence of biomarkers involved in tubular injury and kidney
damage in children with urolithiasis (RS), and to validate these proteins by ELISA …

Results: In the study groups mean creatinine concentrations were significantly higher and
