Consequence of Elevated Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 Levels in Acute Kidney Injury, Renal Recovery and Overall Survival in Intensive Care Unit Patients After Major Surgery

The main goal of our study was to investigate the role of increased fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels on renal recovery and overall survival. We conducted a prospective case‐control cohort study, which included 121 adult cases who developed AKI after major surgical procedures. The subjects...

Description
Summary:The main goal of our study was to investigate the role of increased fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels on renal recovery and overall survival. We conducted a prospective case‐control cohort study, which included 121 adult cases who developed AKI after major surgical procedures. The subjects were followed‐up until the last enrolled patient survived 180 days or until the time of death. Higher FGF23 levels positively correlated with serum creatinine levels (P
