The pathophysiology of sepsis alters drug pharmacokinetics, resulting in inadequate drug
exposure and target-site concentration. Suboptimal exposure leads to treatment failure and …

Fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) and blood urea nitrogen-to-albumin ratio (BAR) are
inflammatory biomarkers that have been associated with clinical outcomes of multiple …

To better understand the role of the urea-to-creatinine ratio in chronic kidney disease
patients, we assessed the epidemiology of the urea-to-creatinine ratio among hospitalised …

Urine biochemistry (UB) remains a controversial tool in acute kidney injury (AKI) monitoring,
being considered to be of limited value both in terms of AKI diagnosis and prognosis …

Introduction Augmented renal clearance (ARC) increases vancomycin (VCM) clearance.
Therefore, higher VCM doses are recommended in patients with ARC; however, impacts of …

Introduction Persistent critical illness (PCI) is a syndrome in which the acute presenting
problem has been stabilized, but the patient's clinical state does not allow ICU discharge …

Abstract Background and Objectives Urinary biomarkers such as low molecular weight
proteins and small molecular weight metabolites are crucial in the diagnosis of kidney injury …

Chronic critical illness, persistent inflammation, and protein catabolism are unfortunately
common problems that continue to be seen in all ICUs or settings. Despite the advances in …

Objective This study analyzed the long-term arteriovenous fistula (AVF) patency rate and its
determinants in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Methods General data and …

Introduction We aimed to determine the correlation between the serum urea‐to‐creatinine
