Evaluation of Serum Levels of Kidney Injury Molecule-1 (KIM-1) and Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) as Potential Biomarkers of Renal Tubular Damage in Brucellosis Patients.
Background: Brucellosis is a zoonotic and multisystemic disease that is widespread worldwide and can present with many different clinical conditions, ranging from asymptomatic to serious and fatal conditions. Brucellosis may be linked to renal tubular and acute kidney damage, nephrotic syndrome, and various types of nephropathies.
Objective: Our research was carried out prospectively to investigate the relationship between brucellosis and various biochemical markers and particularly to investigate the role of renal tubular damage biomarkers.
Methods: Demographic and biochemical data from 60 controls and 60 brucellosis patients were included in the study. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were analyzed by. The diagnostic accuracy of KIM-1 and NGAL for brucellosis was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
Results: According to our findings, significant differences of KIM-1 and NGAL were observed between brucellosis and healthy patients. A high AUC (area under the curve) value of 0.742 (95% CI: 0.616-0.868) and 0.835 (95% CI: 0.729-0.941) was observed for KIM-1 and NGAL, respectively.
Conclusion: Serum levels of KIM-1 and NGAL, which are renal tubular damage markers, where higher in Brucellosis than in healthy patients. These biomarkers can contribute to the rapid and accurate diagnosis of brucellosis regarding the involvement of nephropathies and to the standardization of comprehensive diagnostic warning indicators.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of General Medicine is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on general and internal medicine, pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, monitoring and treatment protocols. The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of reviews, original research and clinical studies across all disease areas.
A key focus of the journal is the elucidation of disease processes and management protocols resulting in improved outcomes for the patient. Patient perspectives such as satisfaction, quality of life, health literacy and communication and their role in developing new healthcare programs and optimizing clinical outcomes are major areas of interest for the journal.
As of 1st April 2019, the International Journal of General Medicine will no longer consider meta-analyses for publication.
