Trial summary

Urinary Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) has been recently reported to be related with the degree of hydronephrosis in pediatric ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) patients. We are trying to analyze whether it is related with the grade of renal injury in UPJO patients. Read more about this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The level of urinary NGAL and the degree of renal injury (time frame: 6 month after operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 May 2021.
