Association of Urine α1-Microglobulin with Kidney Function Decline and Mortality in HIV-Infected Women

[摘要] Background and objectives Despite advances in therapy, HIV-infected individuals remain at higher risk for kidney dysfunction than uninfected individuals. It was hypothesized that urine levels of α1-microglobulin, a biomarker of proximal tubular dysfunction, would predict kidney function decline and mortality risk in HIV-infected and uninfected women.
