An Evaluation of Commonly Used Surrogate Baseline Creatinine Values to Classify AKI During Acute Infection.
INTRODUCTION: Classification of acute kidney injury (AKI) requires a premorbid baseline creatinine, often unavailable in studies in acute infection. METHODS: We evaluated commonly used surrogate and imputed baseline creatinine...

Multicentre evaluation of renal impairment in thoracic surgery (MERITS)
OBJECTIVES: To measure the unit-level variation in Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) incidence post-thoracic surgery over a contemporary 1-year period. Secondary aims include examining the associations with sex, age group, operation...

Identifying drug combinations associated with acute kidney injury using association rules method

Background: Older adults are at an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) because of aging, multiple comorbidities, and polypharmacy. Objectives: The aim of this case-crossover study was to apply association rule (AR)...

Urine Klotho Is Lower in Critically Ill Patients With Versus Without Acute Kidney Injury and Associates With Major Adverse Kidney Events.
OBJECTIVE: Klotho and Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF)-23 were recently postulated as candidate biomarkers and/or therapeutic targets in acute kidney injury (AKI). We examined whether urine Klotho and serum intact FGF23 levels...

Bend sprinting performance
Athletes in inner lanes may be disadvantaged during athletic sprint races containing a bend portion because of the tightness of the bend. We empirically investigated the veracity of modelled estimates of this disadvantage and...

How sprinters accelerate beyond the velocity plateau of soccer players

Forces applied to the ground during sprinting are vital to performance. This study aimed to understand how specific aspects of ground reaction force waveforms allow some individuals to continue to accelerate beyond the...

Choice of sprint start performance measure affects the performance-based ranking within a group of sprinters
Sprint start performance has previously been quantified using several different measures. This study aimed to identify whether different measures could influence the performance-based ranking within a group of 12 sprinters, and...

Detecting meaningful body composition changes in athletes using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) imaging is considered to provide a valid and reliable estimation of body composition when stringent scanning protocols are adopted. However, applied practitioners are not always able to...
