Linear correlation between white blood cell counts and the progression and prognosis of acute kidney injury.

ABSTRACT: IntroductionWhite blood cell count, a cost-effective blood test marker, is used extensively for the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. Nevertheless, its association with the progression and prognosis of acute kidney injury remains unclear.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted using data from a multicenter randomized trial on an acute kidney injury early warning system. Univariate analysis, multivariate logistic regression, and smooth curve fitting were used to evaluate the association between the white blood cell count and the progression and prognosis of acute kidney injury.ResultsA total of 5471 patients were included in the study. White blood cell counts were significantly associated with 14-day acute kidney injury progression (adjusted odds ratio: 1.04, 95% confidence interva
