In summary, differing with our work measuring plasma biomarkers (KIM-1, TNFR1, and TNFR2) in this same cohort at the same time [25], AKI was not associated with long-term changes in urine KIM-1, MCP-1, YKL-40, EGF, UMOD, or albumin several months after hospitalization. The gene discussed is CHI3L1; the disease is acute kidney injury.
