NCT ID NCT00026702
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to find substances in blood and urine that could signal kidney damage earlier than current tests. Researchers compared samples from healthy volunteers, people with low fluid levels, those at high risk for kidney failure, and patients with acute kidney failure. The goal was to develop faster, more accurate detection methods to start treatment sooner and prevent further harm.
