Background: The exact definition of Acute kidney injury (AKI) for patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) is unknown.
Aim: To compare the power of the "Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function, and End-stage kidney disease" (RIFLE), Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN), Creatinine kinetics (CK), and Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) to determine AKI incidence/stage and their association with the in-hospital mortality rate of patients with TBI.
Methods: This retrospective study collected the data of patients admitted to the intensive care unit for neurotrauma from 2001 to 2012, and 1648 patients were included.
Background: To investigate the effects of inhibition of NF-κB activation on left ventricular (LV) remodelling in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI).
Methods: The acute MI model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery. Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) (20mg/kg, Qd) was administered intraperitoneally to inhibit NF-κB activation.
