尿神经导向因子-1和肾损伤分子-1对窒息后新生儿急性肾损伤的诊断价值探讨

目的 分析尿神经导向因子-1(Netrin-1)和肾损伤分子-1(Kim-1)的变化对新生儿窒息引起的急性肾损伤(AKI)的早期诊断价值。方法 选取足月窒息新生儿80 例(轻度窒息组34 例,重度窒息组46 例),以及正常足月新生儿40 例(无窒息组)。分别收集三组新生儿出生后12 h、13~48 h 内尿标本,采用酶联免疫法(ELISA)检测尿Netrin-1 及Kim-1 的水平,同时抽取外周静脉血检测血肌酐(Scr)水平。结果 窒息组患儿生后48 h 内的尿Netrin-1 及Kim-1 水平明显高于无窒息组,生后13~48 h 内的Scr 水平高于无窒息组(P<0.05);AKI 组患儿生后48 h 内的尿Netrin-1、Kim-1、Scr 均高于非AKI 组(P<0.05);12 h 内的尿Netrin-1、Kim-1 预测窒息后AKI 的AUC 值分别为0.878(95%CI 0.775~0.981,P<0.01)和0.899(95%CI 0.829~0.969,P<0.01);新生儿窒息后12 h 内的尿Netrin-1、尿Kim-1、Scr 分别呈明显正相关(P<0.05)。结论 窒息新生儿发生AKI时尿Netrin-1 和Kim-1 水平明显增高;尿Netrin-1 和Kim-1 可作为早期判断窒息后AKI 的指标。

Diagnostic values of urinary netrin-1 and kidney injury molecule-1 for acute kidney injury induced by neonatal asphyxia

Objective To investigate the values of urinary netrin-1 and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by neonatal asphyxia. Methods A total of 80 full-term neonates with asphyxia were enrolled (mild asphyxia: 34 neonates; severe asphyxia: 46 neonates). Forty normal full-term neonates were selected as the control group. Urinary samples were collected from the neonates in the three groups within 12 hours and 13-48 hours after birth. ELISA was applied to measure urinary levels of netrin-1 and KIM-1. Peripheral venous blood samples were also collected to measure serum creatinine (Scr) level. Results Compared with the control group, the asphyxia group had significantly higher urinary levels of netrin-1 and KIM-1 within 48 hours after birth and a significantly higher Scr level within 13-48 hours after birth (P<0.05). The neonates in the AKI group had significantly higher urinary levels of netrin-1 and KIM-1 and Scr level within 48 hours after birth than those in the non-AKI group (P<0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve for urinary netrin-1 and KIM-1 levels within 12 hours after birth to predict AKI after asphyxia were 0.878 (95% CI: 0.775-0.981; P<0.01) and 0.899 (95% CI: 0.829-0.969; P<0.01), respectively. Any two indicators of urinary netrin-1 level, urinary KIM-1 level, and Scr level within 12 hours after neonatal asphyxia had a positive correlation (P<0.05). Conclusions Urinary netrin-1 and KIM-1 levels increase significantly when neonates with asphyxia develop AKI. Urinary netrin-1 and KIM-1 can be used as indicators for the early diagnosis of AKI after asphyxia.
