Objective This study aimed to identify the risk factors for death in patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury. Methods A retrospective study was conducted in 158 patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury in a mixed medical intensive care unit from January 2009 to March 2020. The patients were divided into those who survived and those who died on the basis of whether they survived after 28 days. Demographic and clinical parameters were collected. Multivariate logistic regression was performed. Results Sixty-nine (43.7%) patients died within 28 days after admission to the intensive care unit. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the oxygenation index (odds ratio [OR]: 0.979, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.970–0.989), acute kidney injury (OR: 4.787, 95% CI: 1.674–13.693), norepinephrine dose (OR: 1.706, 95% CI: 1.375–2.117), and abdominopelvic cavity infection (OR: 0.257, 95% CI: 0.076–0.866) were significantly associated with mortality within 28 days after admission in patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury. Conclusions Patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury have a high mortality rate. A high oxygenation index, occurrence of acute kidney injury, high norepinephrine dose, and occurrence of abdominopelvic cavity infection are independent risk factors for 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a major global health threat with a great number of deaths worldwide. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients admitted to the intensive care unit. We aimed to assess the incidence, risk factors and in-hospital outcomes of AKI in COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We conducted a retrospective observational study in the intensive care unit of Tongji Hospital, which was assigned responsibility for the treatments of severe COVID-19 patients by the Wuhan government. AKI was defined and staged based on Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Mild AKI was defined as stage 1, and severe AKI was defined as stage 2 or stage 3. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate AKI risk factors, and Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association between AKI and in-hospital mortality. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 119 patients with COVID-19 were included in our study. The median patient age was 70 years (interquartile range, 59–77) and 61.3% were male. Fifty-one (42.8%) patients developed AKI during hospitalization, corresponding to 14.3% in stage 1, 28.6% in stage 2 and 18.5% in stage 3, respectively. Compared to patients without AKI, patients with AKI had a higher proportion of mechanical ventilation mortality and higher in-hospital mortality. A total of 97.1% of patients with severe AKI received mechanical ventilation and in-hospital mortality was up to 79.4%. Severe AKI was independently associated with high in-hospital mortality (OR: 1.82; 95% CI: 1.06–3.13). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that high serum interleukin-8 (OR: 4.21; 95% CI: 1.23–14.38), interleukin-10 (OR: 3.32; 95% CI: 1.04–10.59) and interleukin-2 receptor (OR: 4.50; 95% CI: 0.73–6.78) were risk factors for severe AKI development. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Severe AKI was associated with high in-hospital mortality, and inflammatory response may play a role in AKI development in critically ill patients with COVID-19.

Abstract Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has emerged as a major global health threat with a great number of deaths worldwide. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients admitted to the intensive care unit. We aimed toassess the incidence, risk factors and in-hospital outcomes of AKI in COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care unitMethods: we conducted a retrospective observational study in intensive care unit of Tongji hospital, which was assigned responsibility for the treatments of severe COVID-19 patients by Wuhan government. The AKI was defined and staged based onKidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Mild AKI was defined as stage 1, and severe AKI was defined as stage 2 or stage 3. We used logistic regression analysis to evaluate AKI risk factors and the association between AKI and in-hospital mortality.Results: A total of 150 patients with COVID-19 were included in our study. The median age of patients was 70 (interquartile range, 60-80) years and 62.7% were male. 70 (46.7%) patients developed AKI during hospitalization, corresponding to the 17.3% in stage 1 and 9.3% in stage 2 and 20.0% in stage 3, respectively. Compared to patients without AKI, patients with AKI had higher proportion of mechanical ventilation mortality and higher in-hospital mortality. 95.5% patients with severe AKI received mechanical ventilation and in-hospital mortality was up to 79.5%. Severe AKI was independently associated with high in-hospital mortality (OR: 4.30; 95% CI: 1.83-10.10). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that high serum interleukin-6 (OR: 2.54; 95%CI: 1.00-6.42) and interleukin-10 (OR: 3.02; 95%CI: 1.17-7.82) were risk factors for severe AKI development.Conclusions: severe AKI was associated with high in-hospital mortality and inflammatory response may play a role in AKI development in critically ill patients with COVID-19.

Background. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common serious problem affecting critically ill patients in intensive care unit (ICU). It increases their morbidity, mortality, length of ICU stay, and long-term risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods. A retrospective study was carried out in a tertiary hospital in Jordan. Medical records of patients admitted to the medical ICU between 2013 and 2015 were reviewed. We aimed to identify the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of AKI. Acute kidney injury network (AKIN) classification was used to define and stage AKI. Results. 2530 patients were admitted to medical ICU, and the incidence of AKI was 31.6%, mainly in stage 1 (59.4%). In multivariate analysis, increasing age (odds ratio (OR) = 1.2 (95% CI 1.1–1.3), P = 0.0001) and higher APACHE II score (OR = 1.5 (95% CI 1.2–1.7), P = 0.001) were predictors of AKI, with 20.4% of patients started on hemodialysis. At the time of discharge, 58% of patients with AKI died compared to 51.3% of patients without AKI (P = 0.05). 88% of patients with AKIN 3 died by the time of discharge compared to patients with AKIN 2 and 1 (75.3% and 61.2% respectively, P = 0.001). Conclusion. AKI is common in ICU patients, and it increases mortality and morbidity. Close attention for earlier detection and addressing risk factors for AKI is needed to decrease incidence, complications, and mortality.
