Intermediate and Long-term Outcomes of Survivors of Acute Kidney Injury Episodes: A Large Population-Based Cohort Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background The long-term prognosis after acute kidney injury (AKI) is variable. It is unclear how the prognosis of AKI and its relationship to prognostic factors (baseline kidney function, AKI severity, prior AKI episodes, and recovery of kidney function) change as follow-up progresses. Study Design Observational cohort study. Setting & Participants The Grampian Laboratory Outcomes Morbidity and Mortality Study II (GLOMMS-II) is a large regional population cohort with complete serial biochemistry and outcome data capture through data linkage. From GLOMMS-II, we followed up 17,630 patients hospitalized in 2003 through to 2013. Predictors AKI identified using KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) serum creatinine criteria, characterized by baseline kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] ≥ 60, 45-59, 30-44, and <30mL/min/1.73m 2 ), AKI severity (KDIGO stage), 90-day recovery of kidney function, and prior AKI episodes. Outcomes Intermediate- (30-364 days) and long-term (1-10 years) mortality and long-term renal replacement therapy. Measurements Poisson regression in time discrete intervals. Multivariable Cox regression for those at risk in the intermediate and long term, adjusted for age, sex, baseline comorbid conditions, and acute admission circumstances. Results Of 17,630 patients followed up for a median of 9.0 years, 9,251 died. Estimated incidences of hospital AKI were 8.4% and 17.6% for baseline eGFRs≥60 and <60mL/min/1.73m 2 , respectively. Intermediate-term (30-364 days) adjusted mortality HRs for AKI versus no AKI were 2.48 (95% CI, 2.15-2.88), 2.50 (95% CI, 2.04-3.06), 1.90 (95% CI, 1.51-2.39), and 1.63 (95% CI, 1.20-2.22) for eGFRs≥60, 45 to 59, 30 to 44, and <30mL/min/1.73m 2 , respectively. Among 1-year survivors, long-term HRs were attenuated: 1.44 (95% CI, 1.31-1.58), 1.25 (95% CI, 1.09-1.43), 1.21 (95% CI, 1.03-1.42), and 1.08 (95% CI, 0.85-1.36), respectively. The excess long-term hazards in AKI were lower for lower baseline eGFRs ( P for interaction = 0.01). Limitations Nonprotocolized observational data. No adjustment for albuminuria. Conclusions The prognostic importance of a discrete AKI episode lessens over time. Baseline kidney function is of greater long-term importance.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
