Background: Acetaminophen serves as a standard antipyretic and analgesic agent in the intensive care unit (ICU). However, the association between its administration and acute kidney injury (AKI) among critically ill patients remains controversial, particularly lacking research in patients with Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). Our aim was to explore the potential relationship between early acetaminophen administration and AKI in critically ill patients with concurrent CDI.

Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing heart valve surgery is a common complication requiring special treatment, including renal replacement therapy (RRT). Effective prevention remains the most effective tool to reduce this important clinical problem. The aim of the study was to evaluate the predictive abilities of selected perioperative parameters in predicting AKI requiring RRT in the early postoperative period in patients undergoing cardiac valve surgery.

Cisplatin nephrotoxicity is a significant clinical issue, and currently, no approved drug exists to prevent cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). This study investigated whether sodium phenylbutyrate (4-PBA), a chemical chaperone, can prevent cisplatin-induced AKI. Six consecutive days of intraperitoneal injections of 4-PBA were administered in a murine model before and after the cisplatin challenge.

Cisplatin is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent in the treatment of a wide array of cancers. Due to its active transport into the kidney proximal tubule cells, cisplatin treatment can cause a buildup of this nephrotoxic compound in the kidney, resulting in acute kidney injury (AKI). About 30% of patients receiving cisplatin chemotherapy develop cisplatin-induced AKI.

The TyG index serves as a valuable tool for evaluating insulin resistance. An elevated TyG has shown a strong association with the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI). Nevertheless, existing literature does not address the relationship between the TyG index and acute kidney injury in patients with sepsis.
