The role of urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin in predicting acute kidney injury in adult patients with diabetic ketoacidosis: a prospective study
Urinary NGAL at a cutoff value above 583.75 nmol/L on admission has a good predictive value for AKI in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis. Early detection of AKI could improve diabetic ketoacidosis outcomes and decrease the risk of chronic kidney disease in individuals with diabetes.
