摘　　要：To the Editor:Globally,acute kidney injury(AKI)is a common life-threatening condition.AKI is more prevalent in elderly patients,with increasing mortality rates.Compared with younger patients,older patients with AKI have a higher risk of persistent injury and poorer prognoses.[1]Older individuals often have comorbidities,increasing their susceptibility to AKI.Kidney Disease:Improving Global Outcomes(KDIGO)criteria define and stage AKI based on the higher stage of AKI defined by either serum creatinine(SCr)level or urine output(UO).[2]However,the record of UO is difficult to access in clinic,the data on the value of UO combined with SCr for AKI diagnosis or prognosis in elderly patients are lacking.Therefore,the objectives of this study were to investigate whether UO would influence the classification of AKI and improve the accuracy of prediction of the clinical prognosis in elderly patients.
