Background: The relationship between renal function and clinical outcomes in patients with intracranial hemorrhage is controversial. Aims: We investigated the associations of blood creatinine and urea nitrogen levels with hospital death and 1-year mortality in patients with intracranial hemorrhage treated in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: A total of 2,682 patients with intracranial hemorrhage were included from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III) database. Clinical variables, including admission creatinine, urea nitrogen, type of intracranial hemorrhage, underlying diseases and other blood biochemistry parameters, were collected. Multivariable correction analysis was conducted of the relationships between blood creatinine and urea nitrogen levels on admission with hospital death and 1-year mortality in the included patients with intracranial hemorrhage. Smooth curve and subgroup analyses were also performed for these associations. Results: A total of 2,682 patients had their blood creatinine and urea nitrogen levels measured within the first 24 h after ICU admission, with median values of 0.80 and 15.00 mg/dL, respectively. We observed steeply linear relationships between creatinine and urea nitrogen levels and the risk of in-hospital death and 1-year mortality, but the risk of in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality increased little or only slowly above creatinine levels > 1.9 mg/dL or urea nitrogen > 29 mg/d (the inflection points).
