From: Prediction of clinical outcomes after kidney transplantation from deceased donors with acute kidney injury: a comparison of the KDIGO and AKIN criteria

Fig. 2

Diagnosis of AKI or AKI stage in DDs according to the (a) KDIGO or (b) AKIN criteria. Please note that 39 donors belonging to the AKI by KDIGO only group as shown in Fig. 1 belonged to the non-AKI group in patient distribution by the AKIN criteria; hence the proportion of AKI was higher in the donor distribution according to the KDIGO criteria in comparison with the AKIN criteria. c The AKI stage in KDIGO showed a significant association with that in the AKIN criteria (Pearson’s correlation coefficient; 0.669, p < 0.001). However, there was discordance between these two criteria in 35.1% (72/205) of the total DDs. AKI, acute kidney injury; DDs, deceased donors; KDIGO, kidney disease: improving global outcome; AKIN, acute kidney injury network
