Abstract Background Patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) are vulnerable to contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), but few prediction models are currently available. Objectives We aimed to establish a simple nomogram for CI-AKI risk assessment for patients with CHF undergoing coronary angiography. Methods A total of 1876 consecutive patients with CHF (defined as New York Heart Association functional class II-IV or Killip class II-IV) were enrolled and randomly (2:1) assigned to a development cohort and a validation cohort. The endpoint was CI-AKI defined as serum creatinine elevation of ≥0.3 mg/dL or 50% from baseline within the first 48–72 hours following the procedure. Predictors for the nomogram were selected by multivariable logistic regression with a stepwise approach. The discriminative power was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and was compared with the classic Mehran score in the validation cohort. Calibration was assessed using the Hosmer–Lemeshow test and 1000 bootstrap samples. Results The incidence of CI-AKI was 9.06% (n=170) in the total sample, 8.64% (n=109) in the development cohort and 9.92% (n=61) in the validation cohort (p=0.367). The simple nomogram including four predictors (age, intra-aortic balloon pump, acute myocardial infarction and chronic kidney disease) demonstrated a similar predictive power as the Mehran score (area under the curve: 0.80 vs 0.75, p=0.061), as well as a well-fitted calibration curve. Conclusions The present simple nomogram including four predictors is a simple and reliable tool to identify CHF patients at risk of CI-AKI, whereas further external validations are needed.

Objectives: We investigated the risk factors for contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) after coronary angiography (CAG) in patients with acute heart failure (AHF), especially with regard to the volume status. Background: Heart failure is a well-known risk factor for CIAKI after CAG. In HF patients, renal perfusion decreases with systemic congestion. Thus, the standard prevention strategy with isotonic solution infusion may be inappropriate while decongestion may be beneficiary in AHF patients undergoing CAG. Deviation from dry body weight suggests imbalanced volume status. Methods: A total of 199 AHF patients who underwent CAG were eligible for the analysis. Absolute deviation of body weight (

Abstract Background: Risk stratification is recommended as the key step to prevent contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) by allowing for prevention among at-risk patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients with hypoalbuminemia are prone to CA-AKI and do not have their own risk stratification tool. Therefore, we developed and validated a model for predicting CA-AKI in patients with hypoalbuminemia undergoing CAG/PCI.Methods: A total of 1272 consecutive patients with hypoalbuminemia undergoing CAG/PCI were enrolled and randomly assigned (2:1 ratio) to a development cohort (n = 848) and a validation cohort (n = 424). CA-AKI was defined as a serum creatinine (SCr) increase of ≥ 0.3 mg/dL or 50% from baseline within the first 48 to 72 hours following CAG/PCI. A prediction model was established with independent predictors according to multivariate logistic regression and a stepwise approach, showing as a nomogram. The discrimination of the nomogram was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and was compared to the classic Mehran CA-AKI score. Calibration was assessed using the Hosmer–Lemeshow test.Results: Overall, 8.4% (71/848) of patients in the development cohort and 11.2% (48/424) of patients in the validation cohort experienced CA-AKI. The simple nomogram included estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum albumin (ALB), age and the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP); showed better predictive ability than the Mehran score (C-index 0.756 vs. 0.693, p = 0.02); and had good calibration (Hosmer–Lemeshow test p = 0.187). Conclusions: Our data suggested that the simple model might be a good tool for predicting CA-AKI in high-risk patients with hypoalbuminemia undergoing CAG/PCI, but our findings require further external validation.Trial registration number NCT01400295

Purpose. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major and severe complication following donation-after-circulatory-death (DCD) liver transplantation (LT) and is associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. However, the risk factors and the prognosis factors of AKI still need to be further explored, and the relativity of intraoperative hepatic blood inflow (HBI) and AKI following LT has not been discussed yet. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between HBI and AKI and to construct a prediction model of early acute kidney injury (EAKI) following DCD LT with the combination of HBI and other clinical parameters. Methods. Clinical data of 132 patients who underwent DCD liver transplantation at the first hospital of China Medical University from April 2005 to March 2017 were analyzed. Data of 105 patients (the first ten years of patients) were used to develop the prediction model. Then we assessed the clinical usefulness of the prediction models in the validation cohort (27 patients). EAKI according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria based on serum creatinine increase during 7-day of postoperative follow-up. Results. After Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression and simplification, a simplified prediction model consisting of the Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) score (p=0.033), anhepatic phase (p=0.014), packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion (p=0.027), and the HBI indexed by height (HBI/h) (p=0.002) was established. The C-indexes of the model in the development and validation cohort were 0.823 [95% CI, 0.738-0.908] and 0.921 [95% CI, 0.816-1.000], respectively. Conclusions. In this study, we demonstrated the utility of HBI/h as a predictor for EAKI following DCD LT, as well as the clinical usefulness of the prediction model through the combination of the CTP score, anhepatic phase, pRBC transfusion and HBI/h.

Introduction. Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a critical issue for cancer patients despite recent treatment improvements. This study aimed to assess the incidence of AKI in cancer patients and its related risk factors. Methods. A Retrospective cohort study was conducted at tertiary hospitals in the period 2016–2018. A data abstraction sheet was used to collect related variables from patients’ records. During admission, the incidence of AKI was assessed using creatinine measurements. RIFLE criteria were used to classify it into five categories of severity: risk, injury, failure, loss, and end-stage renal disease. Results. Using RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-stage renal disease) criteria, 6.9% of admissions were complicated with AKI. The severity of these fell into the categories of risk, injury, and failure, 3.3%, 1.7%, and 1.9%, respectively. In the multivariate model, the odds for developing AKI was significantly higher for patients with congestive heart failure (AOR = 17.1, 95% CI 1.7–80.1), chronic kidney disease (adjusted OR = 6.8, 95% CI 1.4–32.2 ( P value 0.017)), sepsis (AOR = 4.4, 95% CI 1.9–10.1), hypercalcemia (AOR = 8.4, 95% CI 1.3–46.1), and admission to the ICU (AOR = 5.8, 95% CI 2.1–16.2). In addition, the mortality rate was nearly seven times higher for patients complicated by AKI (relative risk = 7.6, 95% CI 3.2–18.2). Conclusion. AKI was significantly associated with congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, sepsis, ICU admission, and hypercalcemia in cancer patients, resulting in poorer outcomes and higher mortality rates. AKI assessment for hospitalized cancer patients should be performed regularly, especially for patients at increased risk.

Abstract Introduction The impact of therapeutic hypothermia on kidneys in cardiac arrest survivors with known congestive heart failure (CHF) is not known. Weak evidence suggests higher risk of acute kidney injury with hypothermia. Purpose The effect of hypothermia on organ function in cardiac arrest patients with preexisting CHF Methods This analysis includes 1417 comatose cardiac arrest survivors that achieved achieved return of spontaneous circulation on hospitalization and had a previous left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessment within last 1 year. Detailed chart review of these patients was performed. CHF was defined as either prior episode of congestive heart failure or presence of LVEF <50%. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for association of hypothermia and acute kidney injury as well as hemodialysis at discharge among patients with and without CHF were computed using multivariable adjusted logistic regression. Results Overall, 1417 cardiac arrest patients (mean age 62.5±14.6 years, 60.2% males, 67.2% white and 29.7% black) were included in this analysis, out of which 467 (33.0%) were treated with therapeutic hypothermia and known CHF was present in 624 (44%). AKI developed in 25.2% of CHF patients that were not treated with hypothermia while, only in 18.0% among CHF patients treated with hypothermia (OR 0.56; 95% CI 0.32–0.96, p=0.03). There was an decrease in trend of requiring hemodialysis at discharge among CHF patients treated with hypothermia compared with CHF patients that were not treated with hypothermia (8.1% vs. 19.62%, p=0.019) among CHF patients not treated with hypothermia. However, there was no significant result. Conclusions Hypothermia is associated with nephroprotective effects among patients with cardiac survivors with pre-existing CHF. Future research is needed to identify subgroups that derive benefit from therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest.

Introduction. Severe sepsis and septic shock are associated with substantial mortality. However, few studies have assessed the risk of septic shock among patients who suffered from urinary tract infection (UTI).Materials and Methods. This retrospective study recruited UTI cases from an acute care hospital between January 2006 and October 2012 with prospective data collection.Results. Of the 710 participants admitted for UTI, 80 patients (11.3%) had septic shock. The rate of bacteremia is 27.9%; acute kidney injury is 12.7%, and the mortality rate is 0.28%. Multivariable logistic regression analyses indicated that coronary artery disease (CAD) (OR: 2.521, 95% CI: 1.129–5.628,P=0.024), congestive heart failure (CHF) (OR: 4.638, 95% CI: 1.908–11.273,P=0.001), and acute kidney injury (AKI) (OR: 2.992, 95% CI: 1.610–5.561,P=0.001) were independently associated with septic shock in patients admitted with UTI. In addition, congestive heart failure (female, OR: 4.076, 95% CI: 1.355–12.262,P=0.012; male, OR: 5.676, 95% CI: 1.103–29.220,P=0.038, resp.) and AKI (female, OR: 2.995, 95% CI: 1.355–6.621,P=0.007; male, OR: 3.359, 95% CI: 1.158–9.747,P=0.026, resp.) were significantly associated with risk of septic shock in both gender groups.Conclusion. This study showed that patients with a medical history of CAD or CHF have a higher risk of shock when admitted for UTI treatment. AKI, a complication of UTI, was also associated with septic shock. Therefore, prompt and aggressive management is recommended for those with higher risks to prevent subsequent treatment failure in UTI patients.
