Objective To investigate the significances of monitoring urine neutrophil gelatinase -associated apolipoprotein (NGAL)and kidney injury molecule -1 (KIM-1)levels before and after coronary intervention in early predication of contrast -induced nephropathy.Methods The clinical data of 249 patients with coronary heart disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention were collected.All patients were divided into contrast -induced nephropathy group(n =21 )and non -contrast -induced nephropathy group(n =228)according to whether had contrast -induced nephropathy.Before surgery and 4h,12h,24h,48h,72h after surgery,the levels of serum creatinine were tested.Before surgery and 4h,12h,24h,48h after surgery,the levels of urinary NGAL and KIM-1 were detected by using enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Compared with before surgery,the serum creati-nine level of contrast -induced nephropathy patients after surgery 48h[(101.7 ±20.3)μmol/L]was elevated,the difference was statistically significant(t =15.972,P <0.05).Compared with before surgery,the urinary NGAL levels of contrast -induced nephropathy patients after surgery 4h ~48h were (12.3 ±1.6)μg/L,(14.5 ±1.5 )μg/L, (14.1 ±1.2)μg/L and (14.3 ±1.4)μg/L,which were significantly elevated(t =8.672,11.817,15.942 and 17.641,all P <0.05),and the urinary KIM-1 levels after surgery 24h and 48h were (5.1 ±0.9)μg/L and (5.5 ± 1.3)μg/L,which were elevated,the differences were statistically significant(t =9.672,14.381,all P <0.05).The urinary NGAL levels of contrast -induced nephropathy patients after surgery 4h ~48h were higher than non -contrast-induced nephropathy patients,and the urinary KIM-1 levels after surgery 24h and 48h were higher than non -contrast -induced nephropathy patients,the differences were statistically significant(t =17.838,19.370,13.996, 18.172,2.792,3.307,all P <0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the urinary NGAL levels after 4h and urinary KIM-1 levels after 24h were positively correlated with serum creatinine levels after surgery 48h(r =0.698, 0.576,all P <0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that urinary NGAL levels in predicting contrast -induced nephrop-athy,the area under the curve was 0.963 (95% CI:0.931 ~0.995 ),sensitivity was 85.7%,and specificity was 94.3%,for urinary KIM-1 levels,those were 0.839 (95%CI:0.768 ~0.909),81.0% and 72.8%.Conclusion The urinary NGAL levels of contrast -induced nephropathy patients after interventional treatment 4h were increased, and the urinary KIM-1 levels appeared increased after surgery 24h,which were earlier than serum creatinine.They were expected to be early indicators for determining acute kidney injury and predicting contrast -induced nephropathy after intervention treatment.
