The AUCs for diagnosis of AKI are greater than that for urinary biomarkers of acute kidney injury in the same cohort, namely, γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (AP), neutrophil-gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule (KIM-1), and interleukin (IL-18) [5]. The gene discussed is LCN2; the disease is acute kidney injury.
