Abstract：Acute kidney injury(AKI) is a common syndrome.Serum creatinine and urine output are the most commonly used in clinical evaluation of kidney injury,but they are poor markers for early diagnosis of AKI,which results in delayed treatment and high mortality.Research in AKI has focused on identifying biomarkers for early detection.Since AKI in children and adults is not the same,investigation is needed to explore the role of potential biomarkers for prediction of AKI in pediatric cohorts.This review serves to update the topic of promising AKI biomarkers and focuses on pediatric biomarker's advantages and limitations to improve early detection in children.
