Urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and other biomarkers in infants with urinary tract infection and in febrile controls

Pediatric Nephrology Oct 11, 2017

Valdimarsson S, et al. - This study appraised eight urine biomarkers, including neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), as diagnostic tools for urinary tract infection (UTI) in infants.
