Different Biomarkers of Acute kidney Injury in Cancer Patients
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) occurs if the kidneys suddenly lose their ability to remove waste products. When the kidneys lose their ability to filter, dangerous levels of waste products can accumulate, which can upset the chemical composition of the blood and urine. Chemotherapy is one of the methods used to treat or temporarily reduce cancer by using certain medications. The main task of this tr...
متن کاملBiomarkers for Acute Kidney Injury
Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been recognised as a major public health problem. It affects >50% of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and is associated with serious shortand long-term complications, premature death and high financial healthcare costs (Mehta et al. 2015; Hoste et al. 2015; Lewington et al. 2013). The consensus definition of AKI has emerged from the Risk, Injury, Failure, ...
متن کاملThe future of pediatric acute kidney injury management--biomarkers.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) represents a common and devastating problem in clinical medicine. A major reason is the lack of early biomarkers for AKI, and hence an unacceptable delay in initiating therapy. Fortunately, the application of innovative technologies has uncovered several novel biomarkers. The most promising of these are included in a putative AKI biomarker panel, consisting of neutroph...

Creatinine remains the standard for laboratory diagnosis of AKI. Efforts to prevent nephrotoxicity have been harmed by the delay in the diagnosis of AKI criteria by using only the creatinine as a marker, therefore there is great interest in identifying early reliable biomarkers. Moreover, early treatment of ARF can be correlated with a better prognosis and identification of biomarkers for early...

Introduction Acute Renal Failure (ARF) remains a common and signifi cant problem in modern medicine. The epidemiology and causes of ARF vary according to the clinical setting; in intensive care units it is estimated that the incidence of ARF ranges from 10%–25%,1,2 with acute tubular necrosis (ATN) accounting for about 75% of cases.3 Recent data from the BEST kidney investigators has estimated ...
