Figure 1:

Decrease in eGFR associated with an increase in serum creatinine of 0.3 mg/dL or more in individuals with different levels on baseline serum creatinine. Baseline eGFR and eGFR after serum creatinine increase by 0.3 mg/dL was estimated in females aged 20 years using the 2009 CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation without using race correction. For the calculations, it was assumed that following the increase in serum creatinine that allowed the diagnosis of AKI, serum creatinine remained stable thereafter for at least a week.
