Effect of Glutamine Administration After Cardiac Surgery on Kidney Damage in Patients at High Risk for Acute Kidney Injury: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, no specific treatment options are available, emphasizing the need for preventive measures. The aim of this study was to clarify the effect of glutamine on [TIMP2]*[IGFBP7] levels at the end of the intervention period.
