Abstract
Background: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is not only a sensitive marker of acute kidney injury but may also be a prognostic marker of acute heart failure (AHF). This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum NGAL and all-cause death (ACD) and the composite outcome of ACD or AHF readmissions in patients with AHF.
Methods: The Embase, Cochrane Library, and PubMed databases were searched for articles focusing on serum NGAL and ACD and the composite outcome of ACD or AHF readmissions in patients with AHF. The hazard ratios (HRs) were pooled with random-effects models.
Results: The results from 2428 patients from seven studies were pooled in this article. Higher NGAL was relevant to an increased risk of ACD (HR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.38 to 2.61) and the composite outcome of ACD or AHF readmissions (HR, 2.92; 95% CI, 1.62 to 5.27) in patients with AHF.
Conclusions: Serum NGAL has prognostic value for ACD and the composite outcome of ACD or AHF readmissions in AHF.

期刊介绍:
RCM is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal. RCM publishes research articles, review papers and short communications on cardiovascular medicine as well as research on cardiovascular disease. We aim to provide a forum for publishing papers which explore the pathogenesis and promote the progression of cardiac and vascular diseases. We also seek to establish an interdisciplinary platform, focusing on translational issues, to facilitate the advancement of research, clinical treatment and diagnostic procedures. Heart surgery, cardiovascular imaging, risk factors and various clinical cardiac & vascular research will be considered.
