“…Conditions that allow for rapid recovery of renal medullary blood flow and quick regained renal function subsequently based on the age and renal volume. 12,26 Previous publications separated AKI duration into several groups including transient azotemia (53 days) and acute tubular necrosis (44 days); short ( 2 days), medium (3-6 days) and long (!7 days); the 1st, 2nd and 3rd tertiles of AKI duration and a renal replacement therapy group. 12,13,27 However, we must be aware of potential bias or confounding in our study because the initiation of renal replacement therapy may fail to control the internal validity of AKI duration, and patients with AKI undergoing renal replacement therapy are excluded.…”

“…The increased incidence of AKI in the elderly is thought to be multifactorial, and it is attributable in part to anatomic and physiologic changes in the aging kidney, to an increased burden of comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes mellitus) affecting kidney function, to more frequent exposure to medications and interventions that alter renal hemodynamics or are nephrotoxic, and to alterations in drug metabolism and clearance associated with aging. [9,10] Taken together, the loss of renal functional reserve in the elderly is considered an increased risk for the development of AKI. [11] T h e p r e s e n c e o f b a s e l i n e p r o t e i n u r i a i s a n independent risk factor for AKI.…”

“…hospitalized). 65,66 Sepsis, nephrotoxic drugs, hypoperfusion, and obstructive uropathy are among the most frequently observed contributing factors. The data as to whether age per se is a risk factor for nonrecovery remain somewhat controversial.…”

“…The data as to whether age per se is a risk factor for nonrecovery remain somewhat controversial. Schmitt et al 66 found that, in a meta-analysis of patients with AKI receiving intermittent RRT, the risk of nonrecovery was 50% greater in elderly patients than younger patients. Contrary to that, Schiffl and Fischer 61 showed that, in a cohort of 425 patients in the ICU with AKI, patients with complete or partial recovery did not differ significantly in their mean age.…”
