The creatinine-to-body weight ratio predicts mortality in critically ill patients with heart failure: a retrospective cohort study of the MIMIC-IV database

CWR demonstrates a robust biphasic association with mortality, identifying 0.05 as a critical threshold separating a risk-plateau phase from extreme high-risk. Its stable prognostic value suggests CWR may integrate acute hemodynamic and chronic metabolic stress, though prospective validation is warranted.

Abstract

CWR demonstrates a robust biphasic association with mortality, identifying 0.05 as a critical threshold separating a risk-plateau phase from extreme high-risk. Its stable prognostic value suggests CWR may integrate acute hemodynamic and chronic metabolic stress, though prospective validation is warranted.
