Key Points

This research aims to investigate the relationship between acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and acute kidney injury (AKI) at admission and their impact on patient mortality rates.
Analyzed patient data using multi-variable logistic regression to assess mortality rates associated with AKI and ACS.
Evaluated inpatient, 30-day, and 90-day mortality rates among patients with and without ACS and AKI.
Compared recovery rates from AKI between both groups.
Patients with ACS showed higher incidences of AKI on admission, resulting in increased inpatient, 30-day, and 90-day mortality rates.
The presence of AKI and ACS together had a synergistic effect on mortality rates.
Recovery rates from AKI were similar in patients with and without ACS despite the increased mortality.

Explores the link between acute kidney injury and mortality in acute coronary syndrome patients, indicating significant risks on admission.
