Article Synopsis
- Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a significant complication for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), and this study aims to examine serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (sNGAL) as a potential early detection marker for DKD in young patients.
- The study included 116 T1D patients, divided into adult and pediatric groups, assessing their sNGAL levels in relation to persistent albuminuria (PA) and non-albuminuria (NA) classifications.
- Results indicated that higher levels of sNGAL were linked to lower kidney function (eGFR), particularly in adults, suggesting sNGAL could be a useful biomarker for early DKD detection, even when
Partial hepatectomy is a major upper abdominal operation associated with certain stress to the patient. Successful adaptation to such stress is a prerequisite for survival. Donor hepatectomy with maximal safety is a principal concern during living donor liver transplantation.
