NGAL, KIM-1, and NAG measurements in prediction of mortality risk scores and organ failure

Parameters AUC (95% interval confidence)
Risk mortality score Organ failure (+1)
NGAL 0.695 (0.603–0.786) 0.841 (0.764–0.917)
KIM-1 0.745 (0.661–0.829) 0.839 (0.769–0.909)
NAG 0.694 (0.597–0.791) 0.739 (0.644–0.833)
Risk mortality score
With septic non-AKI With septic AKI
NGAL 0.811 (0.688–0.933) 0.839 (0.731–0.946)
KIM-1 0.951 (0.907–0.995) 0.553 (0.379–0.727)
NAG 0.707 (0.557–0.857) 0.634 (0.472–0.796)
Organ failure (+1)
With septic non-AKI With septic AKI
NGAL 0.669 (0.537–0.802) 0.578 (0.420–0.737)
KIM-1 0.763 (0.649–0.877) 0.620 (0.465–0.775)
NAG 0.641 (0.498–0.785) 0.659 (0.505–0.813)

Results are presented for the whole sample and for subgroups of septic patients with and without AKI. ROC – curve analysis, NGAL – neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin [ng/ml], KIM-1 – kidney injury molecule-1 [ng/ml], NAG – N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase [U/l].
