According to some studies, regardless of CM type, the amount of CM a patient receives is a powerful predictor of CA-AKI [ 24, 25].
Although it is not clear whether the APACHE II score is useful in clinical practice as a predictor of CA-AKI, it is certain that the more critically ill the patients in ICUs are, the more vulnerable they may be to AKI; thus, a more active prevention and treatment is needed for CA-AKI.
A large Danish case register study identified CA in 25 35% of patients with BD during their initial hospitalizations in the course of their illness, where the estimates varied with different computational methods 7. In this study, female gender was a significant predictor of CA, while marital status and age at first admission were not.
Univariate analyses were performed to estimate the significant predictors of CA dysfunction.
The present study identified 24 original articles involving investigation of the clinical usefulness of NSE and S-100B as prognostic predictors of CA patients after CPR.
UHF neighborhood income and ED usage rate were not significant predictors of CA-MRSA hospitalization in multilevel analyses for males or females (Table 2).
Given this clinical diversity, there may exist genetic differences that could serve as useful predictors of CA-MRSA-related disease phenotypes or virulence.
High lactate concentrations on admission were an independent predictor of poor neurological recovery post-CA, but the time course was not related to outcome.
Each clinical condition elicited a significant effect on 25D/1,25D (p < 0.0001) and adjusted multivariate analysis indicated levels of Cas, Ps, PTH, and 25D as predictors of 25D/1,25D.
The authors suggested that serum cortisol levels may serve as a predictor of survival in successfully resuscitated victims of CA [ 29].
However, data supporting the prognostic utility of MDCT-CA in patients with diabetes stem from only two studies, demonstrating that MDCT-CA is a predictor of major adverse cardiac events, yet with a limited midterm (20 and 33 months) follow-up (9, 10).
