The significance of plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 in predicting acute renal injury in rats by 胡蓉, 董佩, 雷莉, 杨玲, 胡大军

“…The value with the 48 h group decreased little compared with that with the 24 h group（P> 0.05）.（4） Compared with the 0 h group, the urinary KIM-1 value with the 1 h group had no significant difference（P>0.05）; the values with the 2 h, 4 h, 8 h,12 h, 24 h and 48 h groups increased significantly（P<0.05）, and the values with the above groups increased gradually with time going, with the highest value with the 48 h group.（5） Slight renal tubular injury were observed in the rats 1 h after injecting FA, and the tubular injury severity and the affected area increased with time going, without observed tubular injury under an optical microscope at each time point. …”
