Serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and oxidized neutrophil proteins in patients with nephropathy caused by acute alcohol poisoning
Journal: Journal of Nephropathology

Introduction: Alcohol use has been identified as a major risk factor for disease burden and premature mortality. Objectives: We studied the serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and advanced oxidation protein product (AOPP) concentrations in neutrophils to assess the possibility of their using for the early detection of kidney damage in patients with acute alcohol poisoning (AAP). The impact of eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) on the NGAL and AOPP levels was also stu
