BACKGROUND: The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) is associated with poor outcomes in critically ill patients. However, the relationship between SHR and mortality in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) remains unclear. METHODS: The data of patients with SA-AKI, identified based on the KDIGO criteria, were retrospectively collected from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center between 2008 and 2019. SHR was calculated as follows: (glycemia [mmol/L]) / (1.59 × HbA1c [%] - 2.59). Primary outcomes were 30-day and 1-year mortality. The cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Multivariable-adjusted logistic and Cox models and restricted cubic spline curves were used to analyze the correlation between SHR and all-cause mortality. Post-hoc subgroup analysis was performed to compare the effects of SHR across different subgroups. RESULTS: 1161 patients with SA-AKI were identified and categorized into four SHR quartiles as follows: Q1 (0.26, 0.90), Q2 (0.91, 1.08), Q3 (1.09, 1.30), and Q4 (1.31, 5.42). The median age of patients was 69 years, with 42.7% of the patients being women and 20.2% of the patients having chronic kidney disease. The 30-day and 1-year mortality were 22.1% and 35.0% respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated a gradual decrease in survival probability with increasing SHR quartiles. An increased SHR exhibited a strong correlation with 30-day mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1.50;...
