- RPUD measured by CT can predict SIRS after decompression in stone-related obstructive uropathy.
- In a study of 247 patients, higher RPUD values were associated with increased SIRS risk (OR=2.061, p<0.001).
- An RPUD cutoff of 10.5 HU predicted SIRS with 77.8% sensitivity and 74.9% specificity (AUC=0.830).
