Kidney Damage Examination

Kidney Damage Examination includes urine total protein (U-TP), urinary microalbumin (U-malb), urinary immunoglobulin G (U-IgG), urinaryα1-microalbumin (Uα1-M), urinary osmotic pressure, urinary retinol binding protein (U-TRF), urinary gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (U-GGT), and urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (U-NAG), among which U-NAG is the one of the special tests of Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital.

Kidney Damage Examination

U-TP	Index of glomerular barrier function damage
U-malb	Index of early impairment of glomerular barrier function
U-IgG	Abundant IgG in urine indicates glomerular basement membrane loses the selective function
Uα1-M	More sensitive than β2-microalbumin to show the early lesion of nephrons, especially of renal tubules
U-TRF	Sensitive index of early renal tubular impairment
U-GGT	Index of renal tubular inflammatory lesion, especially autoimmune damage
U-NAG	Sensitive index of proximal convoluted tubule injuries
urinary osmotic pressure	Reflecting the concentration and dilution function of renal tubules, especially     of distal tubules
