However, the rate of AKI in patients of different severities and independent predictive factors associated with AKI are not well understood.Patients and Methods: We enrolled 107 severely or critically ill elderly patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in Wuhan, China. AKI was defined according to the 2012 KDIGO criteria. We explored the association between AKI and in-hospital mortality using logistic regression. A predictive nomogram was formulated to predict the AKI development of patients with COVID-19 based on multivariate logistic regression.Results: A total of 107 elderly patients were enrolled during the study period. The mean age was 70 (64– 78) years, and 69 (64.5%) were men. For the 107 patients, the degree of severity of COVID-19 was categorized as 37 patients with the severe type (34.6%) and 70 patients with the critical type (65.4%). Overall, 48 of the 107 patients (44.9%) developed AKI during their hospitalization, while AKI occurred in 7 (18.9%) out of the 37 severe patients and 41 (44.9%) out of the 70 critical patients. Of the AKI patients, 35.4% (17/48) required continuous renal replacement therapy, including 14.3% of AKI patients in severe cases and 39.0% of AKI patients in critical cases. Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated that patients with AKI had a significantly higher risk for in-hospital mortality than severely and critically ill patients without AKI. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that AKI (OR = 33.74; 95% CI = 3.34– 341.29; P = 0.003), septic shock (OR = 15.58; 95% CI = 2.08– 116.78; P = 0.008), invasive mechanical ventilation (OR = 18.44; 95% CI = 2.35– 144.69; P = 0.006), and oxygenation index (OR = 0.99; 95% CI = 0.98– 1.000; P = 0.014) were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality. A nomogram was established based on the multivariate analysis results. The C-index for the developed AKI model was 0.935 (95% CI, 0.892– 0.978); when 10-fold cross validation was used to validate the model, the corrected C-index was 0.825.Conclusion: AKI is common among COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU and is recognized as a marker of disease severity. The proposed nomogram accurately predicted AKI development in ICU patients with COVID-19 based on individual characteristics. Therefore, the strategy for kidney protection against severe or critical pneumonia is appropriate.Keywords: coronavirus disease 2019, acute kidney injury, diagnosis, nomogram, in-hospital mortality Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Subject The topic of the resource Diagnosis, acute kidney injury, Coronavirus disease 2019, nomogram, in-hospital mortality Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Biotemas Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Geriatrics
