Details including history, examination findings, and results of laboratory investigations were recorded.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 243 patients were enrolled in this study. The majority (91.3%) of the patients were males. The most common etiology of cirrhosis was alcohol in 58.4% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 142) followed by hepatitis B in 10.3% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 25) of patients. Pre-renal form of AKI was present in 54.4% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 132) of patients and hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) in 21.8% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 53) of patients. IgA nephropathy was the commonest (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 6) glomerular pathology in nonresponders with intrinsic renal disease. Majority of the patients belonged to stage II (46.9%) and stage I AKI (37%), while only 16.1% had stage III AKI. Various stages of AKI showed a significant correlation (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05) with Child\u2013Turcotte\u2013Pugh (CTP) score and Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD)-Na score.

Pre-renal factors were the most common cause of AKI in cirrhotics. Stages of AKI showed significant correlation with liver prognostic scores.
