AKIuo, AKIc, AKIboth: Acute kidney injury based on urinary output (uo), serum creatinine (c), or both criteria (both).
Relative risk estimates for associations between arsenic and diabetes based on creatinine-adjusted urine are quantitatively higher than estimates based on urinary arsenic levels that are not adjusted for creatinine (Chen et al. 2010; Steinmaus et al. 2009b).
Therefore, a categoric representation of percentages of patients with no AKI, transient AKI, and intrinsic AKI in different subgroups of high and low fractional excretion of sodium and urea at 4 hours is cross-tabulated in Table 4 (A, based on urinary output: P < 0.001; B, based on creatinine: p = 0.01; C, based on both urinary output and creatinine: P < 0.001).
Median uNGAL levels and FENGAL were lower in no AKI versus transient AKI when AKI was defined based on creatinine (P = 0.002 and P = 0.04, respectively), but not when based on urinary output (P = 0.9 and P = 0.49, respectively).
In post hoc analysis, a difference in median NGAL levels occurred between no AKI and transient AKI when AKI was defined based on creatinine (P = 0.002) whereas there was no difference when it was based on urinary output (P = 0.9).
Whereas patients with transient AKI based on urinary output had similar levels of urinary NGAL production as did patients without AKI, patients with transient AKI based on creatinine had levels of urinary NGAL production intermediate between no AKI and intrinsic AKI, in line with the findings of Nejat et al. [ 8], where only the creatinine criterion was used.
18 Diabetic nephropathy will be made based on urinary albumin/creatinine ratio as 30 mg/g Cr or higher.
Urinary biomarker concentration was expressed based on urinary Cr contents.
Intake estimates based on urinary excretion data.
Prediction of CrCl based on estimated urinary creatinine excretion determined from measurement of BCM by BIA technique is both accurate and convenient to quantify renal function in normal and diseased states.
