Diagnostic and prognostic performance of urinary neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin in patients with cirrhosis and acute kidney injury

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Diagnostic and prognostic ability of urinary NGAL in patients with cirrhosis and AKI. Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (uNGAL) could help discriminate between different etiologies of AKI.

Clinical characteristics of emergency department heart failure patients initially diagnosed as non-heart failure

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2006
Background Since previous studies suggest the emergency department (ED) misdiagnosis rate of heart failure is 10–20% we sought to describe the characteristics of ED patients misdiagnosed as non-decompensated heart failure in the ED. Methods We analyzed a
