We identified all adults (aged \u226540\u2009years) hospitalized for AECOPD during the study period. Among them, we further identified patients with a concurrent diagnosis of new AKI. The outcome measures were any-cause readmissions within 30\u2009days and 90\u2009days after hospitalization for AECOPD. To determine associations between AKI and readmission risk, we constructed Cox proportional hazards models examining the time-to-readmission. We also identified the primary reason of readmission.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We identified 356,990 patients hospitalized for AECOPD. The median age was 71\u2009years and 41.9% were male. Of these, 24,833 (7.0%) had a concurrent diagnosis of AKI. Overall, patients with AKI had significantly higher risk of 30-day all-cause readmission compared to those without AKI (hazard ratio 1.47; 95% CI 1.43\u20131.51;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).
