Description

Kidney injury strikes often after lung transplant surgery, and urine markers may flag it a day or more before the standard blood test moves. Vittorio Scaravilli and co-authors tested early markers in this 2026 study of patients who received two new lungs. Standard criteria miss the earliest window when treatment could still help.

Urine was tested for a protein pair that rises when kidney tubules are stressed, defining a hidden injury state with normal blood values. The team checked how well that state and other marker patterns sorted patients by later kidney injury and outcomes. Early sorting could trigger protective steps, like adjusting drugs, while injury is still reversible. The single-center design calls for confirmation elsewhere.
