All other workup was negative including urine eosinophils, urine casts, urine culture, urine drug screen, ANA, serum and urine electrophoresis, and renal ultrasound.[shmabstracts.com]
General Investigation The patient usually needs a complete workup.[myvmc.com]
Renal ultrasound may be ordered as part of the workup for acute renal failure, however, there are no pathognomonic signs for AIN on ultrasound. F. Over-utilized or “wasted” diagnostic tests associated with this diagnosis.[clinicaladvisor.com]

A blood film was positive for Plasmodiumfalciparum. His creatinine was 616 µmol/L coming from a normal baseline of 89 µmol/L. He had a urine protein:creatinine ratio of 346 mg/mmol (4.4 g/L). He required dialysis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There are no established criteria for the administration of corticosteroids in the treatment of drug-induced AIN.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Severe allergic reactions from bortezomib treatment including AIN have not been described in the literature. We report a 47-year-old white man who developed biopsy-proven allergic AIN after treatment with bortezomib for his C3 glomerulonephritis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract Telithromycin, a ketolide antibiotic used for the treatment of community-acquired respiratory infections, is widely prescribed in primary care practice.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Cefepime therapy was ceased and treatment with ciprofloxacin was given to complete the treatment course. Renal function improved only partially with conservative management without any corticosteroid use.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis of benign renal glycosuria is excellent and reversible. Acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is one of the main causes of acute renal failure and may often result in tubular dysfunction.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In general, the prognosis for drug-induced AIN is good, and at least partial recovery of kidney function is normally observed. Early recognition is crucial because patients can ultimately develop chronic kidney disease.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis The overall prognosis for AIN is excellent. Most patients’ renal function recovers upon cessation of the offending agent. The improvement occurs within 6-8 weeks.[myvmc.com]

Many etiologies of AIN have been recognized--including allergic/drug-induced, infectious, autoimmune/systemic, and idiopathic forms of disease. The most common etiology of AIN is drug-induced disease, which is thought to underlie 60-70% of cases.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
While the most common etiology being drug-induced, other causes are infectious, autoimmune, and idiopathic forms of disease.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiologically, renal glycosuria is of 3 types-benign renal glycosuria, glycosuria with diabetes mellitus (including gestational diabetes) and tubular defects (Fanconi syndrome). Prognosis of benign renal glycosuria is excellent and reversible.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A careful medication history and renal biopsy were essential in identifying the etiology of the acute kidney injury in this patient with a complex renal history.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
By and large, drug-induced AIN is currently the commonest etiology of AIN, with antimicrobials and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs being the most frequent offending agents.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
