Core Tip	Renal resistive index (RRI) is the most common Doppler ultrasound variable for measuring intrarenal vascular resistance. Higher RRI indicates renal vascular constriction in patients with advanced cirrhosis due to haemodynamic and neuro-hormonal alterations. This study aimed to evaluate the association of the RRI with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, it aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of RRI in distinguishing between different phenotypes of AKI and identify predictors of high RRI. The results of our study suggest that RRI can be an important tool for evaluating renal dysfunction in cirrhosis patients. In our study cohort of 200 cirrhosis patients, RRI correlated well with AKI, predicted its occurrence, differentiated between AKI phenotypes, and independently predicted mortality among AKI patients.
