Could Neutrophil-Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin and Cystatin C Predict the Development of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after Percutaneous Coronary Interventions in Patients with Stable Angina and Normal Serum Creatinine Values?

Abstract: The value of neutrophil-gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was highlighted as a novel biomarker for the detection of acute renal failure. We tested the hypothesis whether NGAL could represent an early biomarker of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in 100 patients with normal serum creatinine values undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). In addition, we assessed serum and urinary NGAL in relation to cystatin C, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and serum and urinary creatinine in these p… Show more

“…It was shown previously in many clinical studies and has been accepted that NGAL and Cystatin C levels increase in different clinical settings leading to AKI development [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Since the aim of this study is to define the roles of Cystatin C and NGAL in predicting septic AKI development, the patients who had other risk factors, rather than sepsis, that would lead to AKI and increase the Cystatin C and NGAL levels (i.e., nonseptic-AKI patients) were excluded from the study.…”

“…They are investigated in different clinical settings including cardiac surgery [10], contrast agent use [11], critically ill patients [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] and in emergency department [22].…”

“…Serum concentration of NGAL rises before creatinine level and is useful to monitor chronic kidney disease. 7 The NGAL is useful in detecting acute kidney injury in patients who are critically ill, receive intravenous contrast media for coronary angiography, are admitted to the emergency department, or have cardiac surgery. [8][9][10][11][12] Deceased-donor kidney transplant frequently is associated with delayed graft function (25%).…”

“…The latter have shown that NGAL can be used as an early biomarker, for example, contrast-induced nep hropathy in patients with normal serum creatinine levels undergoing percutaneous coronary inter ventions, 12 kidney transplant recipients, 13 and hypertensive patients with coronary artery diseases. 14 These results show that NGAL has the potential for detecting kidney injury earlier than either serum creatinine or, perhaps, GFR estimation formulas that use static measurements of serum creatinine.…”
