NCT ID NCT06041334

First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study looks at whether two substances in urine (TIMP-2 and MMP-2) can predict kidney damage in people with spina bifida. Researchers will compare these biomarkers with standard tests that measure bladder and kidney function. If successful, it could lead to a simpler, non-invasive way to monitor kidney health. The study involves 50 participants who provide urine samples during their regular check-ups.
