Mild elevation of urinary biomarkers in prerenal acute kidney injury

Abstract: Prerenal acute kidney injury (AKI) is thought to be a reversible loss of renal function without structural damage. Although prerenal and intrinsic AKI frequently coexist in clinical situations, serum creatinine and urine output provide no information to support their differentiation. Recently developed biomarkers reflect tubular epithelial injury; therefore, we evaluated urinary biomarker levels in an adult mixed intensive care unit (ICU) cohort of patients who had been clinically evaluated as having prerenal … Show more

“…Nejat et al 28 analyzed data from 489 ICU patients and found that uNGAL levels were not significantly increased in pre-renal AKI compared with patients with no-AKI. In contrast, Doi et al 29 found that uNGAL in patients with pre-renal AKI showed modest, but significantly higher concentrations than in patients with non-AKI. Recently, we undertook a prospective observational study, including 100 critically ill patients, in order to compare the ability of four renal biomarkers [pNGAL, uNGAL, plasma CysC (pCysC), and sCr] to predict early AKI.…”

“…According to Doi et al 22 the AUCs of uIL-18 for AKI prediction within 1 week after admission and prediction of death 14 days post-entry were 0.69 and 0.83, respectively. In another study by Doi et al, 29 uIL-18 in patients with pre-renal AKI showed modest but significantly higher concentrations than in patients with non-AKI.…”

“…Some of these factors have been considered in previous studies (Doi et al 2012;Jin et al 2012;Li et al 2012), such as gender, age, daily activity and environmental factors. However, some factors, especially medication, are difficult to control because during the collection of urine, the regular therapeutic process of patients should not be disturbed.…”
