Objective. To evaluate the prevalence, predictors, prognostic value of cardiorenal interrelations in patients with acute cardiovascular disease (CVD), and to develop an algorithm for stratification these patients at risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Materials and methods. 566 patients (pts) were examined: 278 with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and 288 with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). The levels of electrolytes, glucose, urea, creatinine were evaluated, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was determined according to the formula CKD-EPI. Chest x-ray, electrocardiography at admission and in dynamics, echocardiography at admission with assessment of systolic and diastolic myocardial functions were performed. Chronic kidney disease (CKD), AKI, ADHF, NSTE-ACS were diagnosed according to Russian and international Guidelines. Mann-Whitney test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were considered significant if p<0.05. Results. Different variants of cardiorenal interrelations were revealed in 366 (64.7%) pts. CKD was diagnosed in 259 (45.8%), with more than half of the cases (61%) diagnosed for the first time at this hospitalization, 62 (11%) pts had signs of kidney damage of unknown duration (which did not allow to diagnose CKD). AKI occurred in 228 (40,3%) pts, more frequently in patients with ADHF vs with NSTE-ACS (43.5 and 37.2%). In all groups stage 1 of AKI was prevalent. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in pts with AKI vs without AKI (14.9 vs 3.6%, p<0.001). The risk of AKI was determined by kidney function and blood pressure levels at admission, and comorbidities. Conclusion. Prevalence of cardiorenal interactions in patients with acute CVD (ADHF and NSTE-ACS) was 64.7%. Development of AKI was associated with poor prognosis in both groups. Renal function and blood pressure levels on admission are the main predictors of AKI.

Abstract Background In patients with hypertensive acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), intravenous vasodilators are commonly used. However, little is known about optimal use in blood pressure (BP) management to avoid acute kidney injury (AKI). Purpose To investigate the association between systolic BP (SBP) changes in first 6 h and incidence of AKI within 48 h in patients with hypertensive ADHF. Methods Post-hoc analysis was performed on a prospectively enrolled cohort. We investigated 245 patients with ADHF and SBP >140 mmHg on arrival (mean age, 76 years; 40% female). We defined “SBP-fall” as maximum percent reduction in SBP 6h after intravenous treatment. AKI was defined as serum creatinine (SCr) ≥0.3 mg/dL, or urine output <0.5 mL/kg/h at 48 h. Results Mean SBP, SBP-fall and SCr level at arrival were 180 mmHg, 29.4%, and 1.21 mg/dL, respectively. Sixty-six patients experienced AKI. There were no significant differences in age, NYHA functional class, SBP and SCr at admission between AKI and Non-AKI group. AKI group had the greater SBP-fall compared with Non-AKI (36.7%versus 27.2%, p≤0.0001). Logistic regression analyses revealed that SBP-fall had an independent predictor of AKI (Table). In addition, SBP-fall had positive association with the number of concomitant used intravenous vasodilators in first 6 h (Figure). Logistic regression analyses for AKI Univariate Multivariate AUC OR 95% CI P OR 95% CI P Ages, years, per 10 years 1.04 0.82–1.33 0.17 0.75 SBP at arrival, per 10 mmHg 1.01 0.93–1.11 0.77 SBP-fall, per 10% 1.49 1.22–1.81 <0.001 1.54 1.24–1.91 <0.001 HR, per 10 beat/min 1.12 1.00–1.25 0.049 1.07 0.95–1.21 0.28 COPD 2.95 1.06–8.21 0.04 3.06 0.99–9.43 0.054 SCr, per 1 mg/dL 1.40 0.83–2.37 0.21 Furosemide i.v. 1.12 0.42–2.95 0.82 Carperitide 3.22 1.69–6.13 0.0002 4.39 2.16–8.93 <0.001 NTG/ISDN i.v. 0.97 0.54–1.74 0.92 CCB i.v. 1.86 0.76–4.53 0.18 OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; AUC, area under the curve; SBP, systolic blood pressure; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; SCr, serum creatinine; i.v., intravenous; NTG, nitroglycerin; ISDN, isosorbide dinitrate; CCB, calcium channel blocker. SBP-fall odds ration for AKI Conclusion In the first 6h of management for hypertensive ADHF patients, aggressive SBP reduction by the combination use of vasodilator agents predicted the incidence of AKI.

BackgroundWe sought to determine whether intensive systolic BP (SBP) lowering was harmful in Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) participants with CKD (eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m2) and lower baseline diastolic BP (DBP).MethodsWe related baseline DBP with the SPRINT primary composite end point (myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, acute decompensated heart failure, or cardiovascular death) and all-cause death. We examined the effect of intensive SBP lowering on these outcomes across the range of baseline DBPs using Cox regression with treatment by baseline DBP interaction terms.ResultsAmong 2646 SPRINT participants with CKD, lower baseline DBP was associated with a higher adjusted hazard of the primary composite end point and all-cause death. For example, participants with baseline DBP of 61 mm Hg (mean baseline DBP in the lowest tertile) experienced a 37% (95% CI, 7% to 75%) higher hazard of the primary outcome relative to participants with baseline DBP of 75 mm Hg (mean baseline DBP for overall). The benefit of intensive SBP lowering was consistent across a range of baseline DBPs on rates of the primary composite end point (linear interaction P value =0.56) and all-cause death (linear interaction P value =0.20).ConclusionsAmong SPRINT participants with baseline CKD, lower DBP was associated with higher rates of the primary composite end point and all-cause death. However, DBP did not seem to modify the benefit of intensive SBP lowering on the primary composite end point or all-cause death. Our results suggest that lower DBP should not necessarily impede more intensive SBP lowering in patients with mild to moderate CKD.

Abstract Background The Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) found that intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering reduced the rates of cardiovascular events and mortality but increased the risk of certain adverse events, in patients with and without chronic kidney disease at baseline. However, it is unclear whether intensive BP management is well-tolerated and modifies risk uniformly across the entire spectrum of renal function. Purpose To assess the relationship between renal function, treatment response to intensive BP lowering, and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes. Methods SPRINT was a randomized, controlled trial in which 9,361 individuals ≥50 years of age, at high CV risk but without diabetes who had a systolic BP (SBP) 130–180 mmHg, were randomized to intensive (target SBP <120mmHg) or standard antihypertensive treatment (target SBP <140mmHg). The primary efficacy endpoint was the composite of acute coronary syndromes, stroke, acute decompensated heart failure, or death from CV causes. The primary safety endpoint was the composite of serious adverse events (SAE). Renal function was assessed using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), calculated with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation. We first assessed whether a linear association was present between eGFR and clinical endpoints using restricted cubic splines. We then examined the prognostic implications of eGFR, unadjusted and adjusted for demographic, clinical, and laboratory variables. We further explored the effects of intensive BP lowering across the eGFR spectrum. Results Baseline eGFR was available for 9,324 (>99%) individuals. Mean eGFR was similar between the two groups (intensive group 71.8 ml/min/1.73m2 vs. standard group 71.7 ml/min/1.73m2; P=0.92). Median follow-up was 3.3 years (range 0–4.8), with 561 primary efficacy events (6%) and 3,522 SAE (38%) recorded during the study period. Baseline eGFR was non-linearly associated with the risk of the primary efficacy endpoint, death from CV causes, death from any cause, acute decompensated heart failure, SAE, electrolyte abnormality, and acute kidney injury (test for non-linearity, P<0.05; test for overall trend, P<0.001) and remained significantly associated with all tested endpoints upon multivariable adjustment (P<0.05). Baseline eGFR significantly modified the effects of intensive BP lowering on the primary efficacy endpoint (P=0.02), acute decompensated heart failure (P=0.01), SAE (P=0.01), and acute kidney injury (P=0.04). The Figure shows treatment effects (hazard ratios) across the spectrum of eGFR for these four endpoints. P-values are for the interaction between eGFR and treatment effect. Significant interactions were not detected for other endpoints. Figure 1 Conclusions In SPRINT, lower eGFR was associated with a greater risk of both CV events and SAE. Patients with higher eGFR appeared to derive more benefit from intensive BP lowering while the relationship with safety events was complex.
