Biomarkers in neonates receiving potential nephrotoxic drugs

Novel biomarkers, such as kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), cystatin, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were shown to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) earlier than serum creatinine in critically ill. We carried out the present study to evaluate these biomarkers in addition to co...

Description
Summary:	Novel biomarkers, such as kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), cystatin, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were shown to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) earlier than serum creatinine in critically ill. We carried out the present study to evaluate these biomarkers in addition to conventional in our neonates. We recruited 70 neonates of various gestational age groups receiving one or more potential nephrotoxic drug/s. Daily urine samples were collected for estimating KIM-1, cystatin, and NGAL. Modified neonatal kidney disease improving global outcomes (mKDIGO) classification was used in defining AKI. A significant trend in increased urine concentrations of KIM-1, cystatin, and NGAL were observed as we proceed from term to preterm categories. Strong positive correlation was observed between urine albumin and urine albumin creatinine ratio (ACR), and strong negative correlations between urine creatinine and urine cystatin, and between urine creatinine with urine NGAL. A moderate positive correlation was observed between urine KIM-1 and urine cystatin, between urine KIM-1 and urine NGAL, and between urine cystatin and urine NGAL; and a moderate negative correlation was observed between urine creatinine and urine KIM-1. Seven neonates met the mKDIGO criteria for AKI and ROC plot revealed that baseline KIM-1 and NGAL can significantly predict possible drug-induced AKI in neonates. Urine KIM-1, cystatin, and NGAL are significantly correlated with several other conventional biomarkers that reflect renal function in critically ill neonates. Baseline urine KIM-1 and NGAL concentrations can predict the AKI following potential nephrotoxic drug use in this population.
