J-shaped association between blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine ratio and mortality in critically ill patients with acute pancreatitis: a retrospective cohort study using the MIMIC-IV database
This study identified a non-linear relationship between the BUN/Cr ratio and 365-day mortality in critically ill patients with AP, suggesting that the BUN/Cr ratio may serve as an easily accessible, cost-effective, and accurate prognostic marker for this population.
