Cell‑cycle arrest biomarkers in urine to predict acute kidney injury in septic and non‑septic critically ill patients M. Cuartero1* , J. Ballús2, J. Sabater2, X. Pérez2, N. Nin3, J. Ordonez‑Llanos4 and A. J. Betbesé1
Abstract Purpose: To analyse the usefulness of the composite index of the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) as urinary biomarkers for the early prediction of AKI in septic and non-septic patients. Methods: This is a prospective, observational study including patients admitted to ICU from acute care departments and hospital length of stay
