Long-term risk of sepsis among survivors of acute kidney injury.

abstract：:BACKGROUND: That thrombocytopenia results in increased mortality or transfusion requirements has not been confirmed by previous studies. We performed a case-control study in which 36 patients who developed severe thrombocytopenia of less than 50x109 platelets/l were carefully matched for the severity of underlying dis...
