Article Synopsis
  • Pelvic-ureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) is a leading cause of hydronephrosis in newborns, and early detection is crucial for preventing kidney damage and complications, especially when surgical intervention like pyeloplasty is required.
  • This study examined the relationship between urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and interleukin 18 (IL-18) levels, as well as the degree of kidney damage in Wistar rats with PUJO over different time points.
  • The findings suggest that while NGAL levels did not show significant changes, IL-18 levels varied significantly across different groups and time points, indicating it could be a useful biomarker for predicting kidney damage in PUJO cases
