Simultaneous detection of multiple urinary biomarkers in patients with early-stage diabetic kidney disease using Luminex liquid suspension chip technology.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Several urinary biomarkers have good diagnostic value for diabetic kidney disease (DKD); however, the predictive value is limited with the use of single biomarkers. We investigated the clinical value of Luminex liquid suspension chip detection of several urinary biomarkers simultaneously.

Methods

The study included 737 patients: 585 with diabetes mellitus (DM) and 152 with DKD. Propensity score matching (PSM) of demographic and medical characteristics identified a subset of 78 patients (DM = 39, DKD = 39). Two Luminex liquid suspension chips were used to detect 11 urinary biomarkers according to their molecular weight and concentration. The biomarkers, including cystatin C (CysC), nephrin, epidermal growth factor (EGF), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), retinol-bi
