Serum MIF in Acute Kidney Injury

March 13, 2023 updated by: David M Baron, MD, PhD, Medical University of Vienna

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor in the Serum of Critically Ill Patients as an Early Marker for Acute Kidney Injury

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critical care patients. Currently no parameters are available for early prognosis of AKI. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been associated with AKI in clinical studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate the time course of MIF concentrations in patients with AKI.
