Abstract Background: Saline hydration with addition of mannitol have commonly being strategy to avoid cisplatin induced acute kidney injury. While the initial reports demonstrated that mannitol diuresis decreased cisplatin induced renal injury, others have shown renal injury to be worsened.Objective: To compare the risk of acute kidney injury in cancer patients receiving high dose cisplatin with addition and without addition of mannitol.Method: This was an ambispective cohort study based on consecutive sampling at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital and Mochtar Riady Comprehensive Cancer Centre (MRCCC) Siloam Hospitals. The data was obtained from September 2017 to February 2018. The choice of mannitol administration based on responsible physician clinical judgement. The outcome was any increment more than 0,3 mg/dl or 1,5 times from baseline of serum creatinine. Analysis was done by using SPSS statistic for univariate, bivariate and multivariate logistic regression to obtain crude risk ratio and adjusted risk ratio of cisplatin induced acute kidney injury probability of mannitol addition on hydration.Result: Data from 110 patients (57,3% male) with a median age of 44,5 years (range 19 to 60 years) were collected; 47 received saline alone and 63 received saline with addition of mannitol. Acute kidney injury were higher in mannitol vs non mannitol group. Bivariate analysis showed higher probability of post chemotherapy AKI in mannitol group (RR 2,168; 95% CI 0,839-5,6). On multivariate analysis the adjusted RR was 3,52 (95% CI 1,11-11,162; p value = 0,033) by controlling age.Conclusion: The addition of mannitol on hydration had higher risk of AKI after high dose cisplatin chemotherapy.

ObjectivesIt is unknown whether preoperative use of ACE inhibitors (ACE-I) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) affects the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery. We assessed the impact of preoperative ACE-I/ARB use on risk of AKI after CRC surgery.DesignObservational cohort study. Patients were divided into three exposure groups—current, former and non-users—through reimbursed prescriptions within 365 days before the surgery. AKI within 7 days after surgery was defined according to the current Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome consensus criteria.SettingPopulation-based Danish medical databases.ParticipantsA total of 9932 patients undergoing incident CRC surgery during 2005–2014 in northern Denmark were included through the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group Database.Outcome measureWe computed cumulative incidence proportions (risk) of AKI with 95% CIs for current, former and non-users of ACE-I/ARB, including death as a competing risk. We compared current and former users with non-users by computing adjusted risk ratios (aRRs) using log-binomial regression adjusted for demographics, comorbidities and CRC-related characteristics. We stratified the analyses of ACE-I/ARB users to address any difference in impact within relevant subgroups.ResultsTwenty-one per cent were ACE-I/ARB current users, 6.4% former users and 72.3% non-users. The 7-day postoperative AKI risk for current, former and non-users was 26.4% (95% CI 24.6% to 28.3%), 25.2% (21.9% to 28.6%) and 17.8% (17.0% to 18.7%), respectively. The aRRs of AKI were 1.20 (1.09 to 1.32) and 1.16 (1.01 to 1.34) for current and former users, compared with non-users. The relative risk of AKI in current compared with non-users was consistent in all subgroups, except for higher aRR in patients with a history of hypertension.ConclusionsBeing a current or former user of ACE-I/ARBs is associated with an increased risk of postoperative AKI compared with non-users. Although it may not be a drug effect, users of ACE-I/ARBs should be considered a risk group for postoperative AKI.

Introduction: Occurrence of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is high in hospitalised and critically ill patients. Most of the cases reported by the developed countries are Hospital Acquired Acute Kidney Injury (HA-AKI). AKI is a major medical complication in the developing world also and is due to predominantly community acquired causes, where the epidemiology differs from that in developed countries. Many studies have reported that Community Acquired Acute Kidney Injury (CA-AKI) and HA-AKI differ in mortality, need for renal replacement and residual renal injury. Aim: To know the difference in need for renal replacement therapy and in-hospital mortality between patients diagnosed with CA-AKI and HA-AKI using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Materials and Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted from January 2018-December 2018 after obtaining Institutional Ethical Clearance by comparing 50 cases of CA-AKI and 50 cases of HA-AKI admitted by the General Medicine Department as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Serum Creatinine (S.Cr) at admission, after 48 hours and at the time of discharge were measured. Serial urine output measurements were done. Need for dialysis was noted in both the groups. Both groups were compared based on need for dialysis, difference in mortality and residual renal injury at the time of discharge. Chi-square and student t-tests were applied respectively and p-value ≤0.05 was considered as significant. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17.0 was used for data entry and analysis. Results: the CA-AKI and HA-AKI groups were comparable in age and gender but differed in some co-morbidities. CA-AKI group had underlying hepatobiliary disorders and Non steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) abuse more often than HA- AKI group. There was a significant reduction in S.Cr over the duration of hospital stay in CA-AKI (mean S.Cr at admission was 4.85 mg/dL, at 48 hours 2.05 mg/dL and at discharge 1.20 mg/dL). S.Cr increased after 48 hours of admission from baseline and declined later in HA-AKI but did not reach baseline in many patients in comparison to CA-AKI group (mean S.Cr at admission was 1.10 mg/dL, at 48 hours 2.38 mg/dL, at discharge 1.57 mg/dL). The highest stage of AKI was stage 3 in CA-AKI group (22 vs 11 of HA-AKI). HA-AKI group had more number of patients in stage 2 AKI (26 vs 18 of CA-AKI). There was no significant difference in mortality and requirement of haemodialysis between CA-AKI and HA-AKI groups. Conclusion: There was no difference between the two groups in terms of mortality and need for renal replacement therapy but there was significant residual renal injury in HA-AKI group.

Abstract Background It is unclear whether increased vancomycin area under the curve (AUC) contributes to acute kidney injury (AKI) risk. Methods This retrospective cohort study was undertaken to determine whether vancomycin AUC > 550 is associated with a higher rate of AKI than an AUC < 550. Patients treated with vancomycin for at least 4 days at the St. Louis VA from 1/1/2016–9/31/2018 were included. The primary outcome was AKI (defined as an increase in serum creatinine by 0.3 mg/dL or 50% from baseline). Secondary outcomes included length of stay, readmission, or mortality in 30 days, AKI rate with concurrent antibiotics, and AKI rate with comorbidities. The AUC was calculated as daily dose (in mg) divided by vancomycin clearance. The variables of age ≥ 70, vancomycin AUC ≥ 550, creatinine clearance (CrCl) < 50 mL/minute, concomitant antibiotic administration, vancomycin treatment ≤ 7 days, and the presence of comorbidities were included in a bivariate analysis. Variables with a P-value of <0.2 were included in a multivariate logistic regression model. Results Two hundred patients were included in the analysis; 100 patients with an AUC ≥ 550, and 100 with an AUC < 500. Only mean vancomycin dose (1722.50 mg vs. 2361.25 mg; P < 0.05), mean AUC (465.88 vs. 696.45; P < 0.05), and peak SCr (1.22 mg/dL vs. 1.48 mg/dL; P = 0.015) were significantly different between groups; AUC < 550 vs. AUC ≥ 550, respectively. Acute kidney injury occurred in 22% (44/200) of all patients; 42% (42/100) with a calculated AUC ≥ 550 developed AKI compared with 2% (2/100) of patients with an AUC < 550 (P < 0.05). The secondary outcomes of concomitant nephrotoxic agents, length of stay, readmission at 30 days, and 30-day mortality were not significantly different between groups. Only age ≥ 70, vancomycin AUC ≥ 550, CrCl < 50 mL/minute, concomitant piperacillin–tazobactam administration, and the presence of comorbidities were included in the multivariate regression. Age ≥ 70, CrCl < 50 mL/minute, and AUC ≥ 550 [OR 49.5 (95% CI 10.1 – 242.3; P < 0.05)] were found to be independently associated with risk for developing AKI. Conclusion Patients with a calculated vancomycin AUC ≥ 550 were found to have a significantly higher rate of AKI compared with those with an AUC < 550.

Abstract Background/Objective Sepsis can be associated with increased production of reactive oxygen species that deplete antioxidant molecules and increase the consumption of vitamin C, which correlates with multiorgan failure and death. Intravenous vitamin C may protect several microvascular functions, including capillary blood flow, microvascular permeability barrier, and arteriolar responsiveness to vasoconstrictors and vasodilators. This study was conducted to assess the practice of administering high-dose vitamin C in critically ill patients with sepsis or septic shock at our institution retrospectively.Methods We conducted an electronic health record (EHR)-based, retrospective, before-after study. The primary objective was to assess the efficacy of using a high-dose vitamin C regimen in decreasing hospital mortality. A two-sided P-value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results A total of 84 patient records were included in this study. Administration of high-dose vitamin C, thiamine, and hydrocortisone was associated with higher hospital mortality (64.3% versus 42.9%; P = 0.049), higher ICU mortality (59.5% versus 42.9%; P = 0.07), shorter ICU length of stay (three versus seven days; P = 0.53), higher incidence of acute kidney injury (61.9% versus 26.2%; P = 0.001), and a higher requirement for renal replacement therapy (76.9% versus 45.5%; P = 0.06).Conclusion Administration of high-dose vitamin C, thiamine, and hydrocortisone in critical care patients with sepsis or septic shock was associated with higher hospital mortality and higher incidence of acute kidney injury.

A 77-year-old man was admitted with severe acute kidney injury and nephrotic syndrome. He was started on eltrombopag for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura 6 weeks earlier. An ultrasound of the kidneys was normal and an auto-antibody screen was negative. The use of the Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale indicated a probable relationship (score of 5) between the patient’s development of acute renal failure and eltrombopag therapy. Literature review identified only one other case of nephrotic syndrome and acute kidney injury associated with eltrombopag therapy in which a kidney biopsy revealed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Due to the challenges faced during the prevailing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and persistent low platelet counts a renal biopsy was not undertaken. On stopping eltrombopag, the patients renal function stabilised and he successfully went into remission following treatment with high dose corticosteroids and diuretics. This report of a serious case of reversible renal failure and nephrotic syndrome after treatment with eltrombopag may serve to inform clinicians about the possible severe renal adverse effects of eltrombopag before its commencement for future use.

Background: The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with COVID-19 and its association with mortality and disease severity is understudied in the Canadian population. Objective: To determine the incidence of AKI in a cohort of patients with COVID-19 admitted to medicine and intensive care unit (ICU) wards, its association with in-hospital mortality, and disease severity. Our aim was to stratify these outcomes by out-of-hospital AKI and in-hospital AKI. Design: Retrospective cohort study from a registry of patients with COVID-19. Setting: Three community and 3 academic hospitals. Patients: A total of 815 patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19 between March 4, 2020, and April 23, 2021. Measurements: Stage of AKI, ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, and in-hospital mortality. Methods: We classified AKI by comparing highest to lowest recorded serum creatinine in hospital and staged AKI based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) system. We calculated the unadjusted and adjusted odds ratio for the stage of AKI and the outcomes of ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, and in-hospital mortality. Results: Of the 815 patients registered, 439 (53.9%) developed AKI, 253 (57.6%) presented with AKI, and 186 (42.4%) developed AKI in-hospital. The odds of ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, and death increased as the AKI stage worsened. Stage 3 AKI that occurred during hospitalization increased the odds of death (odds ratio [OR] = 7.87 [4.35, 14.23]). Stage 3 AKI that occurred prior to hospitalization carried an increased odds of death (OR = 5.28 [2.60, 10.73]). Limitations: Observational study with small sample size limits precision of estimates. Lack of nonhospitalized patients with COVID-19 and hospitalized patients without COVID-19 as controls limits causal inferences. Conclusions: Acute kidney injury, whether it occurs prior to or after hospitalization, is associated with a high risk of poor outcomes in patients with COVID-19. Routine assessment of kidney function in patients with COVID-19 may improve risk stratification. Trial registration: The study was not registered on a publicly accessible registry because it did not involve any health care intervention on human participants.
