Elevation of urinary liver-type fatty acid binding protein after cardiac catheterization related to cardiovascular events

PURPOSE: Contrast medium (CM) induces tubular hypoxia via endothelial damage due to direct cytotoxicity or viscosity. Urinary liver-type fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) increases along with tubular hypoxia and may be a detector of systemic circulation injury. The aim of this study was to evaluat...
