Article Synopsis
- * In a cohort of hospitalized patients, high levels of CK20 at the time of AKI diagnosis significantly increased the risk of both AKI-CKD progression and all-cause death within 90 days, outperforming other biomarkers.
- * The findings suggest that incorporating urinary CK20 measurements can enhance the accuracy of predicting adverse outcomes in AKI patients, indicating its potential utility in clinical practice.
