The Diagnostic Value of the Random Urine Potassium‒Creatinine Ratio to the Synchronous Serum Potassium Concentration Squared for Renal Potassium Loss in Hypokalemia Patients

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Few parameters are available for diagnosing renal potassium loss in emergency patients or patients receiving treatment. This study aimed to investigate the ratio of random urine potassium‒creatinine to the synchronous serum potassium concentration squared ([UK/UCr]/SK2) and compare it with other parameters in the diagnostic ability of renal
