Univariate regression analysis of the clinical data of 604 VLBW infants revealed that the following were significantly associated with the risk of AKI occurring in VLBW infants: GA; type of delivery; birth weight; 5-min Apgar score; RBC count, Hb concentration, Ca concentration, and P concentration within 3 days of birth; and history of respiratory failure, sepsis, brain injury, PAH, PDA, myocardial injury, or neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (Table 4). Here, GSTM1 is linked to Patent ductus arteriosus.
