ABSTRACT: Diuretics have been one of the well-known nephrotoxic drugs which can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI). However, there are few real-world studies on the incidence of AKI in hospitalized patients received diuretics. In the present study, a single-center retrospective study was conducted in our center.
