Abstract:
Objective:To study the early predictive value of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipoprotein (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) for acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates with severe asphyxia.Method:From January 2019 to June 2020, neonates with severe asphyxia admitted to our hospital within 6 hours after birth were enrolled in the study. The dynamic changes of urine NGAL and KIM-1 at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1 w after birth were examined. Neonates were assigned into AKI group and non-AKI group according to the clinical practice guidelines for AKI issued by KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome). The sensitivity and specificity of NGAL and KIM-1 predicting AKI at different time points were evaluated using ROC curve and area under curve (AUC).Result:According to the diagnostic criteria of neonatal AKI, 9 cases were in the AKI group and 42 cases in the non-AKI group, and the incidence of AKI was 17.6%. Urine NGAL was significantly increased in AKI group at admission and 24 h after birth compared with the non-AKI group [(115.6±75.5) ng/ml vs. (49.8±29.0) ng/ml, (90.7±35.6) ng/ml vs. (55.6±30.7) ng/ml] ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed at 48 h and 1 w after birth between the two groups. At 24 h after birth, urine KIM-1 in the AKI group was significantly higher than the non-AKI group [(808.3±555.3) pg/ml vs. (318.4±234.0) pg/ml, P<0.05] and no significant differences existed between the two groups at admission, 48 h and 1 w after birth. The AUC of NGAL predicting AKI at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1w after birth were 0.804 (95% CI 0.573~1.000), 0.792 (95% CI 0.580~1.000), 0.732 (95% CI 0.517~0.947) and 0.551(95% CI 0.371~0.730), respectively. The AUC of KIM-1 predicted AKI at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1 w after birth was 0.860 (95% CI 0.676~1.000), 0.824 (95% CI 0.655~0.993), 0.768 (95% CI 0.622~0.914), 0.622 (95% CI 0.392~0.852), respectively. Conclusion:At admission, 24 h and 48 h after birth, urine NGAL and KIM-1, as kidney injury markers, may predict the occurrence of AKI after severe neonatal asphyxia.
