Early prediction of urinary tract infection with urinary neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin
Pediatric Nephrology, 08/10/09
Yilmaz A et al. – Both uNGAL and uNGAL/Cr can be used as a novel, sensitive marker for early prediction of UTI in the absence of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease, and the optimal cutoff value for prediction of UTI is lower than the values determined for acute kidney injury. Further investigations with larger patient groups are required to confirm results.
