Fig. 3

Notes: Adults included in the study were categorized in two groups based on their initial exposure to COVID-19 antigens in the period over December 2020 to August 2023. The vaccination group: those whose first recorded COVID-19 vaccination preceded any infection formed the vaccination group; The infection group: those whose first documented COVID-19 infection occurred prior to any vaccination. Patients were followed from the index date to 30 days to observe AKI incidence. The probability of developing AKI in the infection group was significantly higher than that in the vaccination group from day 0 to day 30(Log-Rank test, P < 0.001). Abbreviation: AKI acute kidney injury.
