Figure 2. Comparison of the urinary levels of NGAL (A), MCP-1 (B), L-FABP (C), IL-18 (D), osteopontin (E), cystatin C (F), and clusterin (G) among healthy volunteers (8 measurements of 8 subjects), AKI-free group (11 measurements of 11 subjects) and AKI group (20 measurements of 20 subjects).

Figure 2

Data were from urinary samples on postoperative day 1 immediately before the administration of tacrolimus in liver transplant patients (AKI-free group and AKI group). Data were normalized to urinary creatinine concentration and plotted on a logarithmic Y axis. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test. *<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001. NGAL, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; MCP-1, monocyte chemotactic protein-1; L-FABP, liver-type fatty acid-binding protein; IL-18, interleukin-18, N.D., not detected.
