Abstract
Highlights
YKL-40 is a biomarker for inflammatory diseases’ diagnosis and prediction
YKL-40 concentration increases with age and has variations in healthy population
YKL-40 is convincing in pancreatic/liver disease, arthritis, bronchitis, and sepsis
YKL-40 is debatable in cardiovascular/neurological/renal disease, diabetes, asthma
Future larger studies and age-stratified reference intervals of YKL-40 are needed
期刊介绍:
Biochemia Medica is the official peer-reviewed journal of the Croatian Society of Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine. Journal provides a wide coverage of research in all aspects of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine. Following categories fit into the scope of the Journal: general clinical chemistry, haematology and haemostasis, molecular diagnostics and endocrinology. Development, validation and verification of analytical techniques and methods applicable to clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine are welcome as well as studies dealing with laboratory organization, automation and quality control. Journal publishes on a regular basis educative preanalytical case reports (Preanalytical mysteries), articles dealing with applied biostatistics (Lessons in biostatistics) and research integrity (Research integrity corner).
