From: Tubular reabsorption and local production of urine hepcidin-25
Serum hepcidin-25 versus estimated urinary excretion of hepcidin-25 in patients 1–2 and 12–24 hours post surgery. There is no correlation indicating a threshold of serum hepcidin-25 above which urinary excretion steeply increases. Spearman’s rho is 0.91 for 8 patients at day 1 and 0.16 for patients at day 2.
