Acute kidney injury in hospitalized COVID-19 patients: predictors, risk factors, mortality, and renal recovery from a bi-center cohort in Palestine

Paper C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

Doctors at two hospitals in Palestine reviewed COVID-19 patients to see how many had sudden kidney injury, what made it more likely, how many died, and how many got kidney function back. Sudden kidney injury means the kidneys stop filtering well over hours or days, which is different from the slow decline of chronic kidney disease. Because this looks back at records rather than testing a treatment, it shows which patients were at higher risk, not what caused the injury. No abstract was available, so the patient count and recovery numbers are not in hand.
