Abstract Background and Aims Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is the main complication of contrast media administration in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG). This complication may be accelerated by concurrent renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers . Current literature is inconclusive. We investigated the impact of RAAS blockade on the occurrence of CIN in patients undergoing CAG. Method We prospectively enrolled 158 patients who underwent CAG with or without percutaneous coronary intervention from December 2017 to February 2018 at a cardiology department . CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine level >25% or 0.5 mg/dL after 48 hours postcardiac catheterization. Results Of 158 patients (females=36.1%, mean age 60.0 ± 11 years) who underwent CAG , 15 (9,5%) developed CIN . Eighty one patients (51,2%) were chronic RAAS blockade users. There was no significant difference between the two groups, RAAS blockade 'used' versus 'not-used', in the incidence of postprocedural CIN (7,5% vs 11,5%, p=0,38). However , the pre-contrast use of RASS blockers decrease the risk of CIN in patients with chronic renal failure (12,5% vs 66,6% , p=0,042) . Conclusion RAAS blockade isn’t associated with a significantly higher incidence of CIN, whereas it has the potential to mitigate the incidence of CIN in patients with chronic renal failure. This low cost intervention could be considered when referring a patient for cardiac catheterization.

Objectives: This meta-analysis investigated the impact of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockade on the occurrence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). Methods: Twelve studies comparing the use of RAAS blockade in a total of 4,493 patients undergoing a contrast-using procedure were included. The primary endpoint was the overall postprocedural incidence of CIN. Results: In the overall pooled analysis, there was no significant difference between the two groups, RAAS blockade ‘used' versus ‘not-used', in the incidence of postprocedural CIN in the random-effects model (OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.77-2.11, p = 0.351, I2 = 61.9%). In the stratified analysis, however, for chronic RAAS blockade users, the continuation of the drug was significantly associated with a higher incidence of CIN compared with discontinuation (OR 2.06, 95% CI 1.62-2.61, p < 0.001, I2 = 0.0%). A hazard of continuation was marked in a subgroup of older patients or in patients with chronic kidney disease. For drug-na9ve patients, however, administration of RAAS blockade before contrast procedures did not reduce the development of CIN significantly (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.23-1.16, p = 0.108, I2 = 34.2%). Conclusion: Discontinuation of RAAS blockade in chronic users is associated with a significantly lower incidence of CIN, whereas administration of RAAS blockade as a preventive measure for na9ve patients did not show a significant effect on the incidence of CIN. i 2014 S.

Here, we have studied the impact of administration of rat placental cryoextract (PCE), drug blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) with enalapril and spironolactone and their combination on the rat kidney tissue structure and excretory function at different stages of chronic renal failure (CRF) development using the glycerol model. In 3 weeks after glycerol introduction, the animals from all the groups showed low values of glomerular filtration rate, impaired blood flow in renal cortex, tubular epithelial dystrophy, inflammation and edema of interstitium, indicating the onset of CRF development. Tubulo-interstitial nephritis and nephrosclerosis were dominated in untreated rats 16 weeks later. The use of RAAS drug blockade, as well as a comprehensive therapy with RAAS blockers and placental cryoextract stopped the inflammatory processes in renal tissue, restored blood circulation and normalized excretory function, which persisted for up to 16 weeks of observation.

Introduction: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) remains as a common complication of angiographic procedure. Carperitide, an antagonist of secretion of rennin, aldosterone and vasopressin with natriuretic effects, has renal protective effects. Hypothesis: Carperitide may be effective in preventing CIN. Methods: We prospectively studied 170 consecutive patients with chronic renal failure (serum creatinine(SCr) concentration >1.3mg/dl)who underwent coronary angiography. The patients were randomly assigned to either 1.3ml/kg/hr of lactated Ringer’s infusion plus carperitide 0.042μg/kg/min (Carperitide group N=86) or lactated Ringer’s infusion alone (Control group N=84). The administration was initiated 6 hours prior to the procedure and continued for 48 hours after angiography. The concentration of SCr and cystatin C were measured at baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, and 1 month following the angiography. Results: The SCr concentration increased gradually up to one month in the Control group, whereas remained almost unchanged in the Carperitide group (p=0.001 for the trend, Figure ). The cystatin C concentration also showed the same trend (p=0.013 for the trend, Figure ). When CIN was defined as an increase of ≥0.5 mg/dl or ≥25% in the SCr at 48 hours after angiography, CIN developed in 7 of 84 patients (8%) in the Control group and 1 of 86 patients (1%) in the Carperitide group (P=0.047). Multivariate analysis disclosed that carperitide infusion (OR 0.097, P=0.041) and quantity of contrast media (OR 14.06, P=0.004) were significantly related to the development of CIN. Conclusions: Carperitide is effective in preventing CIN in patients with chronic renal failure.
