Aspirin increases the risk of acute kidney injury in critical patients with chest trauma: a retrospective cohort study
Abstract
Purpose Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are increasingly utilized in trauma patients, particularly
those with critical chest trauma who are susceptible to significant blood loss, leading to renal hypoperfusion. Acute
kidney…

Prothrombin time predicting time‐dependent and risk‐stratified mortality
in polytrauma patients
Abstract
Background Polytrauma is associated with a high mortality rate and often accompanied by coagulopathy. Pro‐
thrombin time (PT) is a prognostic factor for mortality in polytrauma patients.
The aim was to analyze the time- and…
