Summary

This study looked at 197 emergency room patients with rhabdomyolysis (severe muscle breakdown) to see if a blood marker called NGAL can predict acute kidney failure within 48 hours. Researchers measured NGAL levels and tracked kidney outcomes. The goal is to find a faster way to identify patients at risk, so treatment can start sooner.
