Change in Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Dynamics in Response to Elevated Cold-Inducible RNA-Binding Protein in Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury

Figure 1

Elevated CIRP after CPB was associated with increased incidence of AKI. (a) The ΔCIRP levels in patients who experienced CPB were 4.3-fold higher than those who did not. (b) The ΔCIRP levels were positively correlated with the CPB time (, , and ). (c) Incidence of AKI stratified by median serum ΔCIRP concentration. CIRP: cold-inducible RNA-binding protein; CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass. ; .
