Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Levels in Neonates

Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Levels in Neonates

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in preterm infants and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. New biomarkers for the early detection of AKI have been identified. Specifically, urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) is a new and powerful biomarker for AKI and sepsis....
