COVID-19-induced acute renal tubular injury associated with elevation of serum inflammatory cytokine

ConclusionsLevels of tubular injury markers, especially L-FABP and u β2MG, were significantly associated with IL-6 levels even in patients with no evident AKI. This suggests that L-FABP and uβ2MG could be useful as early detective biomarkers for COVID-19 associated renal injury.
