Urinary angiotensinogen in pediatric urinary tract infection

Abstract: Background Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common diseases in children, and urinary angiotensinogen (U‐AGT) is a new biomarker gathering attention in many renal diseases. U‐AGT reflects intrarenal renin–angiotensin system (RAS) activity. We conducted a study to measure U‐AGT in children <4 months old with UTI. Methods All children <4 months old who came to Toshima Hospital with fever between January 2015 and December 2015 were included. Patients were divided into a UTI group and a non‐UTI grou… Show more

“…As a result, patients suffer more pains and difficulties in treatment. The risk of urinary tract infection (Mayumi et al 2019;Net et al 2018) will rise, disadvantaging the prognosis. As a common treatment of UR, indwelling catheter may lead to urinary tract infection while extubation difficulties are expected in some patients.…”

“…Another biomarker that reflects the significant early steps in disease pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is I-FABP [26][27][28][29]. AGT is another biomarker extensively reported in the pediatric population to evaluate renal development and injury [30,31].…”

“…For instance, the role of uromodulin (UMOD) and urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in acute kidney injury (AKI) (18)(19)(20). Another biomarker that re ects the signi cant early steps in disease pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is I-FABP(21-24) (AGT) is another biomarker extensively reported in the pediatric population to evaluate renal development and injury (25,26) In the present study, we employed a quantitative proteomics approach to identify urinary biomarkers to detect early brain injury in asphyxiated neonates with different stages of HIE-Mild (HIE-1), Moderate (HIE-2), and Severe (HIE-3). Our analysis revealed early biomarkers like Uromodulin (UMOD), Apolipoprotein-A2 (APOA2) for HIE-1 and also differential or severity biomarkers like Fatty Acid Binding Protein 1 (FABP1), Apolipoprotein-M (APOM), Parkinsonism Associated Deglycase (PARK7), Osteopontin (SPP1) for all the three HIE stages.…”
