Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyDerivation and validation of cutoffs for clinical use of cell cycle arrest biomarkers.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a deadly condition. Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP)-2 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)7 are two recently discovered urinary biomarkers for AKI. We now report on the development, and diagnostic accuracy of two clinical cutoffs for a test using these markers. ⋯ Clintrials.gov # NCT01209169 (Sapphire) and NCT01846884 (Opal).
