Core Tip	This manuscript aims to review the latest achievements in the diagnosis and treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI). Despite much progress in recent years, especially in the development of novel biomarkers, serum creatinine still plays the major role. Creatinine is not only the mainstay of definition, diagnosis and prediction of AKI, but also the most important predictor of outcome after cardiac surgery, including mortality and morbidity as well as hospital length of stay.
