DIAGNOSIS OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE BY QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-TRANSLATIONAL MODIFICATIONS OF PLASMA PROTEINS

摘要

The present invention relates to methods for diagnosing and/or monitoring the onset or progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a patient by the analysis of post-translational modification of plasma proteins. The present invention provides improved means for diagnosing chronic kidney disease (CKD), and especially for the early recognition of CKD.
