Background: Serum lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio (LAR) is associated with poor outcomes in malignancy and pneumonia. However, there are few studies suggesting that LAR is associated with the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with sepsis, which was investigated in this study.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database.
Human serum albumin (HSA) is a commonly used medication for the treatment of sepsis. However, there is no conclusive evidence as to whether different concentrations of HSA are associated with patient prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the association between different concentrations of HSA and 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis.

However, the association between RAR and prognosis in patients with sepsis remains unclear, which was investigated in this study.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV version 2.
