“…[10] However, a recent study on trauma patients aged ≥75 years found that AKI was associated with the magnitude of injury and shock, rather than the patient's comorbidities, as well as the risk of death. [11] In our study, age was analyzed as a potential risk factor; however, we did not find that it was a significant factor.…”

“…Patients aged >65 years are mainly admitted to trauma ICUs for low-energy falls and for admissions relating to their comorbidities, which may affect baseline renal function [10] . However, a recent study on trauma patients aged ≥75 years found that AKI was associated with the magnitude of injury and shock, rather than the patient's comorbidities, as well as the risk of death [11] . In our study, age was analyzed as a potential risk factor; however, we did not find that it was a significant factor.…”

“…Second, compared with the CENTER-TBI study [ 8 ], our patients were older (and older age is a well-known risk factor for developing AKI [ 3 ]). In injured patients aged ≥75 years, AKI was associated with the severity of injury and shock rather than comorbidities and with increased risk of death [ 14 ]. On the other hand, patients in the CENTER-TBI database were more severely injured, as noted by their higher ISS, and had major extracranial injuries in 62% of the patients, which constitutes an exclusion criterion in our sample of isolated TBI patients, as done by Luu et al [ 9 ].…”

“…Patients with renal trauma following traumatic injuries experience longer hospital stays and higher mortality rates [6, 7]. While the incidence and mechanisms behind kidney injury are well known, the mortality from kidney injury and the risk factors behind these deaths remains unclear [6-9]. Identification of highest risk patients for early death would facilitate implementation of preventive and potential therapeutic strategies.…”
