Endothelium-related biomarkers enhanced prediction of kidney support therapy in critically ill patients with non-oliguric acute kidney injury.

ABSTRACT: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common condition in hospitalized patients who often requires kidney support therapy (KST). However, predicting the need for KST in critically ill patients remains challenging. This study aimed to analyze endothelium-related biomarkers as predictors of KST need in critically ill patients with stage 2 AKI. A prospective observational study was conducted on 127 adult ICU patients with stage 2 AKI by serum creatinine only. Endothelium-related biomarkers, including vascular cell adhesion protein-1 (VCAM-1), angiopoietin (AGPT) 1 and 2, and syndecan-1, were measured. Clinical parameters and outcomes were recorded. Logistic regression models, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, continuous net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discriminati
