Clinical phenotyping of polymyxin-associated nephrotoxicity and phenotype-specific prognostic utility of neutrophil-to-platelet ratio in carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) infections remain therapeutically challenging, often necessitating last-line polymyxin therapy despite substantial nephrotoxicity. Conventional risk assessments for polymyxin-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently overlook patient heterogeneity. We sought to delineate clinical phenotypes of polymyxin-associated AKI and determine whether the...
