    Genome-wide association study of acute kidney injury after coronary bypass graft surgery identifies susceptibility loci. 

    Duke Perioperative Genetics and Safety Outcomes (PEGASUS) Investigative Team; Ji, Y; Kertai, Miklos David; Kraus, William Erle; Li, YJ; Li, YW; Mathew, Joseph P; ... (13 authors) (Kidney Int, 2015-10)
    Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common, serious complication of cardiac surgery. Since prior studies have supported a genetic basis for postoperative AKI, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for AKI following ...
