Subclinical and clinical acute kidney injury share similar urinary peptide signatures and prognosis

Intensive Care MedPublished Secondary analysis of the FROG-ICU cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Biomarker-defined sAKI is a common and severe condition observed in patients within intensive care units with a urinary peptide signature that is similar to that of AKI, along with a comparable prognosis.

Study context

Population
ICU patients with all biomarkers measured at inclusion1,154 without acute kidney injury (AKI)

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Urinary peptide signature
  • sAKI signatures, regardless of biomarker used, similar to AKIKDIGO signatures (inflammation, haemolysis, endothelial dysfunction)

Further findings

Mortality, non-AKIKDIGO subgroup (median age 60 years [48, 71]) — non-AKIKDIGO
27.8%
