Description
Yuzhan Lin and co-authors use a basic bedside number — how much urine a sepsis patient makes in a day — to forecast who will not leave the ICU alive. Kidneys falter early in sepsis, and output is charted hourly everywhere. Their 2024 study mines a multi-center critical care database of more than seven thousand sepsis patients.
The link is graded and bends: more urine, lower twenty-eight-day mortality, in a smooth dose-response rather than a single cutoff. Each modest step up in daily volume trims the risk a little. Models adjust for the usual severity confounders before the claim is made. Intensivists get confirmation that an old-fashioned number, watched as a trend, still earns its place on the chart.
