Role of Some Biochemical Indices for Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury in Intensive Care Unit Patients in Upper Egypt

1. We will investigate the relation between the triglyceride-glucose index and the development of AKI in ICU. 2. To detect whether the TGI is a predictor of poor outcome (requirement of renal replacement therapy, or 14-day in-hospital mortality, and length of hospital stay) in ICU. 3. Compare TGL, Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and clinical score (sequential organ failure assessment SOFA score) as predictors of poor outcome in ICU.
