Abstract:neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, higher levels of ferritin, CRP and d-Dimer were found to be statistically significant factors in development of AKI. Mortality was found to be significantly higher in patients with AKI (12%) compared to patients without AKI (0.8%). Conclusions: AKI is common among patients hospitalised with COVID-19 and is associated with high mortality. Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, serum ferritin, CRP and d-Dimer are early markers to predict the development of AKI and assess the severity of … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
