Primary risk factors for AKI were blood loss (p < 0.001), postoperative hypoalbuminemia (p = 0.050), and potentially nephrotoxic drugs prior to admission (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin-II receptor antagonists, diuretics, antibiotics, NSAIDs) (p = 0.003). The gene discussed is ACE; the disease is acute kidney injury.
