ABSTRACT: Background
Sepsis is the most common trigger for AKI and up to 40% of mild or moderate septic AKI would progress to more severe AKI, which is associated with significantly increased risk for death and later CKD/ESRD. Early identifying high risk patients for AKI progression is a major challenge in patients with septic AKI.Methods
This is a prospective, multicenter cohort study which enrolled adult patients with sepsis and initially developed stage 1 or 2 AKI in the intensive care unit from January 2014 to March 2018. AKI was diagnosed and staged according to 2012 KDIGO-AKI guidelines. Renal cell arrest biomarkers (urinary TIMP2*IGFBP7, u[TIMP-2]*[IGFBP7]) and renal damage biomarkers (urinary KIM-1[uKIM-1] and urinary IL-18 [uIL-18]) were measured at time of AKI clinical diag
