BackgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is common in preterm infants and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. New biomarkers for the early detection of AKI have been identified. Specifically, urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) is a new and powerful biomarker for AKI and sepsis. Our study evaluated the reference range of uNGAL in healthy neonates in Taiwan.MethodsThis study examined 24 preterm and 38 term infants without clinical complications. Urine samples were collected and the uNGAL values were measured at postnatal age (PNA) 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, and 21 days in the preterm infants and at PNA 3 days in the term infants. The uNGAL values were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsThe medi...
