Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Hafez A Abdel-Hafez"
- Hafez A Abdel-Hafez's recent research investigates the role of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) as a potential biomarker for disease activity in lupus nephritis patients, comparing levels among those with active disease, inactive disease, and healthy controls.
- The study included a cohort of 70 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), focusing particularly on the differentiation between active lupus nephritis and non-active cases.
- Findings suggest that urinary NGAL may serve as a useful marker for assessing disease activity in lupus nephritis, contributing to the understanding of acute kidney injury in this patient population.
