Abstract in brief

  • The study assessed how heat strain, dehydration, and mechanical load during a 353 km endurance trail run affect markers of acute kidney injury (AKI) in amateur athletes, finding significant changes in serum biomarkers, urine analysis, and perceived exertion levels.
  • Biomarker changes such as creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and urine proteins increased post-run and were correlated with mechanical load indicators, suggesting that intense physical effort can overload the kidneys.
  • Participants showed signs of kidney stress, including proteinuria and hematuria, along with increased pain and exertion, indicating that prolonged endurance running can lead to temporary AKI, primarily related to mechanical and physiological stress on the body.
