Introduction: We aimed to determine risk factors for nephrotoxicity and factors affecting mortality in patients who received colistin. Methodology: Critical patients who received colistin were enrolled. Pregnancy, age < 18 years, basal creatinine level > 2 mg/dL, colistin use for < 48 hours, and previous renal replacement therapy were exclusion criteria. KDIGO stages were determined according to creatinine levels. Patients were grouped as those with no acute kidney injury (Group N0) and those with acute kidney injury (Group N). Their demographic data, APACHE II and SOFA scores, treatments, and laboratory results were recorded. Results: A total of 91 patients were included: 27 in Group N0 and 64 in Group N. Demographic data were similar between groups; however, higher admission APACHE-II scores (OR:1.179, 95% CI:1.033-1.346, p = 0.015) and need for vasopressors (OR:5.486, 95% CI:1.522–19.769, p = 0.009) were found to be independent risk factors for nephrotoxicity. Higher APACHE II scores (OR:1.253, %95 CI:1.093-1.437, p = 0.001), presence of coronary artery disease (OR:7.720, % 95 CI: 1.613-36.956, p = 0.011), need for vasopressors (OR: 4.587, % 95 CI: 1.224 – 17.241, p = 0.024), hypoalbuminemia (OR: 4.721, % 95 CI: 1.088 – 20.469, p = 0.038), and higher direct bilirubin levels (OR: 1.806, % 95 CI: 1.055 – 3.092, p = 0.031) were independent risk factors for mortality. Conclusion: When use of colistin is considered in ICU patients, presence of modifiable risk factors for nephrotoxicity such as hypoalbuminemia, nephrotoxic drug administration, and presence of shock should be determined and managed to prevent nephrotoxicity.

Abstract Background After lung transplantation (LT), some patients are at risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), which is associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality. Method Among 161 patients who underwent LT at Severance hospital in Seoul, Korea from October 2012 to September 2017, 148 patients were retrospectively enrolled. Results 59 (39.8%) developed AKI within 1-month after LT. Stage I or II, and stage III AKI were recorded in 26 (17.5%) and 33 (22.2%), respectively. AKI III usually occurred within 7 days after transplantation (early vs. late AKI III, 72.5% vs 21.1%). Pre-operative anemia, units of red blood cells transfused during surgery, colistin intravenous infusion for treating multi drug resistant pathogens were independent risk factors for AKI development. Post-operative bleeding, grade 3 PGD within 72 hrs, and sepsis were more common in the AKI group. Patients with AKI III ([24/33] 72.7%) had significantly higher 1-year mortality than the no-AKI ([18/89] 20.2%), and AKI I or II group ([9/26] 34.6%), log-rank test, P < 0.001). Conclusion AKI was associated with worse post-operative outcome, 3-month, and 1-year mortality after LT. Severity of AKI was usually determined in early post op period after LT, so optimal post-operative management as well as recipients selection should be considered.

Abstract Background In December 2019, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak was reported from Wuhan, China. Information on the clinical course and prognosis of COVID-19 was not thoroughly described. We described the clinical courses and prognosis in COVID-19 patients. Methods Retrospective case series of COVID-19 patients from Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University in Wuhan, and Xi-shui Hospital, Hubei Province, China, up to February 10, 2020. Epidemiological, demographic and clinical data were collected. Clinical course of survivors and non-survivors were compared. Risk factors for death were analyzed. Results A total of 107 discharged patients with COVID-19 were enrolled. The clinical course of COVID-19 presented as a tri-phasic pattern. Week 1 after illness onset was characterized by fever, cough, dyspnea, lymphopenia and radiological multilobar pulmonary infiltrates. In severe cases, thrombocytopenia, acute kidney injury, acute myocardial injury or adult respiratory distress syndrome were observed. During week 2, in mild cases, fever, cough and systemic symptoms began to resolve and platelet count rose to normal range, but lymphopenia persisted. In severe cases, leukocytosis, neutrophilia and deteriorating multi-organ dysfunction were dominant. By week 3, mild cases had clinically resolved except for lymphopenia. However, severe cases showed persistent lymphopenia, severe acute respiratory dyspnea syndrome , refractory shock, anuric acute kidney injury, coagulopathy, thrombocytopenia and death. Older age and male sex were independent risk factors for poor outcome of the illness. Conclusions A period of 7–13 days after illness onset is the critical stage in COVID-19 course. Age and male gender were independent risk factors for death of COVID-19.

AbstractCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a newly emerged infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and has been pandemic all over the world. This study described acute kidney injury (AKI) at early stage of COVID-19 and its clinical significance. Three-hundred and fifty-five COVID-19 patients with were recruited and clinical data were collected from electronic medical records. Patient’s prognosis was tracked and risk factors of AKI was analyzed. Of 355 COVID-19 patients, common, severe and critical ill cases accounted for 63.1%, 16.9% and 20.0%, respectively. On admission, 56 (15.8%) patients were with AKI. Although AKI was more common in critical ill patients with COVID-19, there was no significant association between oxygenation index and renal functional indices among COVID-19 patients with AKI. By multivariate logistic regression, male, older age and comorbidity with diabetes were three important independent risk factors predicting AKI among COVID-19 patients. Among 56 COVID-19 patients with AKI, 33.9% were died on mean 10.9 day after hospitalization. Fatality rate was obviously higher among COVID-+19 patients with AKI than those without AKI (RR=7.08, P<0.001). In conclusion, male elderly COVID-19 patients with diabetes are more susceptible to AKI. AKI at early stage may be a negative prognostic indicator for COVID-19.

Purpose: Considerable evidence suggests that inflammation and malnutrition are common in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and correlated with mortality of various diseases. Despite this, few studies have reported the underlying predictive effects of inflammatory and nutritional markers in combination on the mortality of AKI patients. Herein, we aimed to explore the values of PCT and CRP as well as the ratios of PCT/Alb and CRP/Alb in the poor prognosis of patients with sepsis-induced AKI.Patients and Methods: A total of 171 patients with AKI, caused by abdominal infection-evoked sepsis, were retrospectively studied and divided into a survival group (107 cases) and a non-survival group (64 cases). Univariate analysis was used to compare the clinical data of the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of poor prognosis in patients with sepsis-induced AKI. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of PCT, CRP, PCT/Alb, and CRP/Alb in the poor prognosis of patients with sepsis-induced AKI.Results: Univariate analysis revealed that the values of PCT, CRP, CRP/Alb, and PCT/Alb were significantly different between AKI survival and non-survival groups, and further analysis found that PCT and PCT/Alb were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with sepsis-induced AKI after adjusting with age and gender. Of note, the predictive accuracy (0.864 vs. 0.807), specificity (83.2 vs. 69.2), and sensitivity (79.7 vs. 76.6) of PCT/Alb were all higher than that of the simple PCT.Conclusions: The ratio of PCT to Alb is an independent risk factor possessing a robust and accurate risk assessment for the poor prognosis of patients with sepsis-induced AKI, and it offers the potential to improve the management of this type of disease and a lower resultant mortality.

e17559 Background: Patients with advanced head and neck cancer (HNC) are commonly treated with chemoradiation with concomitant cisplatin. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is considered a dose-limiting toxicity of cisplatin. We aim to describe the incidence and risk factors of AKI. Methods: In our tertiary center, we retrospectively identified 261 patients with advanced HNC and adequate renal function who were treated curatively from 2008 to 2015 using radiotherapy and concurrent three-weekly cisplatin. Outcome was the first AKI episode, defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines as a ≥50% rise in serum creatinine compared to baseline. Several potential predictors were investigated by means of logistic regression analyses. Results: In our cohort (mean age 58 ± 8 years, 74.3% male), a total of 102 (39.1%) patients developed AKI. Factors significantly associated with AKI in the univariate analysis were: age, alcohol consumption, excessive smoking, diabetes, hypertension, diuretic use, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system blockers, and administration of furosemide when indicated during first cisplatin cycle. In the multivariable model smoking 6-25 and > 25 cigarettes per day (OR 1.85; 95% CI 1.01-3.39 and OR 3.22; 95% CI 1.34-7.70, respectively), diabetes (OR 2.58; 95% CI, 1.01-6.61), furosemide (OR 2.39; 95% CI, 1.36-4.18) , and hypertension (OR 2.79; 95% CI, 1.52-5.12) remained independent risk factors for AKI. Conclusions: The identified risk factors smoking, diabetes, and hypertension may have caused pre-existing kidney damage and therefore have predisposed to AKI. Co-administration of furosemide with cisplatin is a potentially reversible risk factor for AKI.

ObjectiveThe aim of our study was to assess the incidence and identify the predictive risk factors of acute kidney injury after cytoreductive surgery and cisplatin-based hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy.MethodsThis is a retrospective study from two centers evaluating patients with advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer who underwent cytoreductive surgery followed by cisplatin-based hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy from January 2007 to December 2013. Patients were classified into two groups according to the occurrence of acute kidney injury, defined as a glomerular filtration rate at post-operative day 7 25% lower than at day 0. We also evaluated acute kidney injury following Risk, Injury, Failure, Lost and End-stage kidney function criteria. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted in order to assess the association between different variables and the occurrence of acute kidney injury.ResultsSixty-six patients were included: 29 (44%) underwent first-line treatment and 37 (56%) were treated for recurrent disease. The incidence of post-operative acute kidney injury was 48%. After multivariate analysis, hypertension (OR 18.6; 95% CI 1.9 to 182.3; p=0.012) and low intra-operative diuresis (OR 0.5; 95% CI 0.4 to 0.8; p=0.001) were associated with acute kidney injury.ConclusionThe incidence of acute kidney injury after cytoreductive surgery and cisplatin-based hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy was high. Hypertension and low intra-operative diuresis were independent risk factors for this complication. Adequate peri-operative hydration, in order to maintain correct diuresis, could decrease the occurrence of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy.
