This single-center study reveals that sRAGE couldn't predict AB severity or outcome in children hospitalized at PICU. Nevertheless, it significantly increased in the presence of any lung consolidation and had a positive correlation with classical biomarkers. The utility of sRAGE in this population could be probably elucidated with a better understanding of AGE-RAGE axis.
