简要总结
About 20% of patients admitted to the ICUs have obesity. Obesity, apart from its well-known cardio-vascular and metabolic adverse effects, also potentiates cytokine release, leading to a low-grade inflammatory state. Obesity has been associated with a higher risk of early SA-AKI, and studies have shown an association between obesity and the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with critical illness. Though obesity is known to be a risk factor for AKI and CKD, whether it specifically causes SA-AKI has not been extensively studied. Traditionally, the classification of obesity has been based on BMI. However, it is difficult to measure BMI in critically ill ICU patients to determine obesity class, as equipment to measure the weights in supine patients is often unavailable in resource-limited settings.The purpose of the study is to determine if central obesity (as assessed by B-mode ultrasound of intra-abdominal fat thickness and pre-peritoneal fat thickness) is associated with AKI in patients with sepsis. Investigating this association could reveal potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets to enhance patient outcomes in a critical care environment.

入选标准
- •1 Patients aged above 18 years, 2 Patients of sepsis as diagnosed by the SOFA score based on Sepsis 3 criteria and having AKI based on KDIGO guideline criteria (SA-AKI).
- •3 Admitted or transferred to ICUs.
排除标准
- •1 Patients with a previously diagnosed chronic kidney disease (CKD) of any stage.
- •2 Patients presenting with acute kidney injury (AKI) of more than 2 days’ duration (acute kidney disease, AKD), as the cause of AKD will be difficult to ascertain due to limitations in prospective follow-up.
