Abstract:
Acute kidney injury(AKI) can lead to remote organ damage.The specific mechanism by which the AKI results in distant organ damage is yet to be determined.In animal models,it has become increasingly clear that AKI is not an isolated event but results in remote organ dysfunction involving the heart,lungs,liver,and brain.This review summarizes the effects of AKI on remote organs.
