Urinary N-acetyl-b-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) levels of twenty healthy full-term newborns and of seventeen full-term newborns with perinatal asphyxia were evaluated within the first 48 hours of life. Urinary NAG levels and NAG indices (urinary NAG/urinary creatinine ratio) were sig-nificantly higher in newborns with perinatal asphyxia than control group (p
Abstract
Urinary N-acetyl-b-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) levels of twenty healthy full-term newborns and of seventeen full-term newborns with perinatal asphyxia were evaluated within the first 48 hours of life. Urinary NAG levels and NAG indices (urinary NAG/urinary creatinine ratio) were sig-nificantly higher in newborns with perinatal asphyxia than control group (p
