Nonlinear association of stress hyperglycemia ratio with primary outcomes in the total study population AKI acute kidney injury. A, Stress hyperglycemia ratio and composite of cardiac events; B, Stress hyperglycemia ratio and major acute kidney injury; C, Stress hyperglycemia ratio and major systemic infection. All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, baseline systolic blood pressure, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate, baseline N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, admission department (Department of Cardiology /others), Charlson Comorbidity Index, with or without ischemic heart disease at baseline, whether use of insulin at baseline (Yes vs no), and whether use of venous loop diuretics at baseline (Yes vs no).
