“…15,[17][18][19] In our study, age, male gender, history of chronic kidney disease, previous coronary revascularization, and increasing number of comorbidities were significantly associated with an increased risk of AKI, whereas after multivariable adjustment, only lower eGFR level remained as an independent predictor, similar to some other previous studies. [20][21][22][23] In our view, despite this finding, previous identification of other risk factors apart from low eGFR warrants further studies with different patient populations to better delineate the role of lower eGFR as a sole predictor of AKI.…”

“…Some have used an exposure termed "renal dysfunction" defined as preoperative serum creatinine concentration > 2 or > 2.5 mg/dL and showed that preoperative renal dysfunction is a risk marker for postoperative dialysis [7,11]. This methodology is limited by several factors relevant to the inaccuracy of serum creatinine use and the fact that a cutoff value of 2.5 mg/dL corresponds to very low renal function, that is, eGFR levels of 26 and 20 mL/min/1.73 m 2 for a 65-year-old male and female, respectively, which is the average age of such cohorts.…”

“…During the last 2 decades, the risk profile of patients referred for cardiac surgery has substantially changed, due to population aging and due to the broad application of percutaneous coronary interventions [7,10,11]. As a result, patients who undergo cardiac procedures present with multiple comorbidities, such as congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and diabetes.…”
