Kidney injury molecule-1 expression predicts structural damage and outcome in histological acute tubular injury.

CONCLUSION: The uKIM-1 level corresponds with the severity of renal histological damage and can be a potential reliable predictor of adverse renal outcomes in ATI patients. Moreover, combining uKIM-1 and sKIM-1 can increase the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis of severe ATI. PMID: 30909833 [PubMed - in process]
