ABSTRACT: Background
The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has been demonstrated as an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI) in certain populations. However, this relationship in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) remains unclear. Our study sought to elucidate the relationship between SHR and AKI in patients with CHF.Methods
A total of 8268 patients with CHF were included in this study. We categorized SHR into distinct groups and evaluated its association with mortality through logistic or Cox regression analyses. Additionally, we applied the restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis to explore the relationship between SHR as a continuous variable and the occurrence of AKI. The primary outcome of interest in this investigation was the incidence of AKI during hos
