In their seminal work, Parikh and Coca (2010) explore the classification systems of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), emphasizing the distinctions in prerenal azotemia within clinical practice and research. The authors aim to clarify the definitions and diagnostic criteria essential for effective patient management and research methodologies. By analyzing existing frameworks, they provide valuable insights that can enhance the understanding and treatment of kidney-related conditions, advocating for consistent and precise definitions in the field of nephrology.
