Based on multivariate analysis, advanced age (OR: 1.855; p = 0.011), preoperative hypertension (OR: 1.91; p = 0.017), coronary heart disease (OR: 6.773; p < 0.001), preoperative albumin (OR: 0.924; p = 0.015), D-Dimer (OR: 1.001; p = 0.038), plasma creatinine (OR: 1.025; p = 0.001), cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) duration (OR: 1.011; p = 0.001), repeat CPB (OR: 6.195; p = 0.010), intraoperative red blood cell transfusion (OR: 2.560; p < 0.001), urine volume (OR: 0.406 p < 0.001) and vasoactive–inotropic score (OR: 1.135; p = 0.009) were independent risk factors for AKI. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is Hypertension.
