Article Synopsis
- * Among 231 patients, those with rhabdomyolysis experienced more severe symptoms like confusion and pain, and had higher levels of damage markers for various organs compared to those without rhabdomyolysis.
- * Rhabdomyolysis was linked to a lower survival rate and was identified as an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury and death, highlighting the importance of detecting and treating rhabdomyolysis early in SFTS patients.

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common infectious disease that can lead to complications such as rhabdomyolysis (RM), a rare but potentially life-threatening condition involving muscle breakdown. RM can further complicate the clinical course by causing acute kidney injury (AKI). We present a case of Community-acquired pneumonia with AKI complicated by rhabdomyolysis in a resource-limited setting.
