Open Radical Cystectomy

Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is replacing open radical cystectomy (ORC) and requires clamping of the ureters, resulting in a predisposition to postrenal acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated the association between ureteral clamping or its duration and acute/chronic postoperative kidney function. Patients who underwent radical cystectomy (robotic or open) at two tertiary institutions during 2002–2021 were retrospectively enrolled. In those who underwent RARC, the maximum postoperative percentage serum creatinine level (%sCre) change was plotted against ureteral clamping duration. They were divided into two groups using the median clamping time (210 min), and the maximum %sCre change and percentage estimated glomerular filtration rate (%eGFR) change at 3–6 months (chronic) were compared between the ORC (no clamp), RARC < 210, and RARC ≥ 210 groups. In 44 RARC patients, a weak correlation was observed between the duration of ureteral clamping and %Cre change (R2 = 0.22, p = 0.001). Baseline serum creatinine levels were comparable between the groups. However, %sCre change was significantly larger in the RARC ≥ 210 group (N = 17, +32.1%) than those in the RARC < 210 (N = 27, +6.1%) and ORC (N = 76, +9.5%) groups (both, p < 0.001). Chronic %eGFR change was comparable between the groups. Longer clamping of the ureter during RARC may precipitate AKI; therefore, the clamping duration should be minimized.

Abstract BackgroundThe presence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in pre-eclampsia complicates treatment including; increasing length of hospital stay and a need to access services like dialysis which are largely expensive in resource-limited settings. We aimed to determine incidence and predictors of acute kidney injury among women with severe pre-eclampsia at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital in southwestern Uganda. MethodsWe carried out a hospital-based prospective cohort study from 16 November 2018 to 18 April 2019, among pregnant women with severe preeclampsia followed up in the hospital. We enrolled 70 mothers with severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia; we excluded patients with a history of chronic renal disease, chronic hypertension, and gestational hypertension.Data on socio-demographics, laboratory parameters, health system, obstetric and medical factors were collected. Baseline serum creatinine, complete blood count, and CD4 T-cell count were all done at admission (0-hour). Second serum creatinine was done at 48-hours to determine the presence of AKI. AKI was defined as a rise in serum creatinine of 0.3mg/dl or more from the baseline. The proportion of women diagnosed with acute kidney injury among the total number of women with severe pre-eclampsia was reported as incidence proportion. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was used to establish the association of acute kidney injury and severe pre-eclampsia.ResultsIncidence of acute kidney injury was high (41.4%) among women with severe pre-eclampsia. Antenatal care attendance was protective 0.36 (0.16, 0.80), p<0.013 at bivariate analysis but had no statistical significance at multivariate analysis. Eclampsia was an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury. (aRR 2.74 (1.06, 7.08), P<0. 037.ConclusionThe incidence of acute kidney injury in patients with preeclampsia is high. Eclampsia is an independent risk factor of acute kidney injury.

Advanced Cirrhosis

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of advanced cirrhosis. Type 1 hepatorenal syndrome is the best-known and most severe form of AKI, and it has a precise definition and a set of specific diagnostic criteria. More recently, it has become recognized that milder degrees of renal dysfunction also have a negative impact on patient outcome in various patient populations. Key Messages: Several definitions and criteria for staging the severity of AKI have been proposed, including the RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of Function and End-Stage Renal Disease) group, the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN), and the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) group. All of them incorporate some changes of serum creatinine and urine output in the definition and staging of AKI. The hepatology community has mostly embraced the AKIN diagnostic and staging criteria and has applied them in the prognostication of patients with advanced cirrhosis. However, the AKIN criteria have not been strictly applied in all studies on cirrhosis. This is partly related to the fact that changes in urine output are difficult to assess in advanced cirrhosis, and partly related to the difficulty in defining the baseline serum creatinine from which the change in serum creatinine is calculated. This has led to some confusion in the interpretation of results of the various studies on AKI in cirrhosis. More recently, some investigators have suggested incorporating the AKIN criteria with setting a lower limit of serum creatinine of 1.5 mg/dl in determining the diagnosis and prognosis of AKI in cirrhosis. Conclusions: This is an ongoing debate as to how best to define AKI in cirrhosis. In the near future there should be prospective clinical trials that will clarify which diagnostic and staging criteria of AKI will best serve the cirrhotic population.

Iodinated Contrast

BackgroundCombining non-contrast CT (NCCT), CT angiography (CTA), and CT perfusion (CTP) imaging (referred to as a CT stroke study, CTSS) provides a rapid evaluation of the cerebrovascular axis during acute ischemic stroke. Iodinated contrast-enhanced CT imaging is not without risk, which includes renal injury. If a patient's CTSS identifies vascular pathology, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is often performed within 24–48 h. Such patients may receive multiple administrations of iodinated contrast material over a short time period.ObjectiveWe aimed to evaluate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients who underwent a CTSS and DSA for evaluation of acute ischemic symptoms or for stroke intervention within a 48 h period between August 2012 and December 2014.MethodsWe identified 84 patients for inclusion in the analysis. Patients fell into one of two cohorts: AKI, defined as a rise in the serum creatinine level of ≥0.5 mg/dL from baseline, or non-AKI. Clinical parameters included pre- and post-imaging serum creatinine level, time between CTSS and DSA, and type of angiographic procedure (diagnostic vs intervention) performed.ResultsFour patients (4.7%) experienced AKI, one of whom had baseline renal dysfunction (defined as baseline serum creatinine level ≥1.5 mg/dL). The mean difference between baseline and peak creatinine values was found to be significantly greater in patients with AKI than in non-AKI patients (1.65 vs −0.09, respectively; p=0.0008).ConclusionsThis study provides preliminary evidence of the safety and feasibility of obtaining CTSS with additional DSA imaging, whether for diagnosis or intervention, to identify possible acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in many critically ill patients and is associated with high mortality. We examined whether proenkephalin could predict incident AKI and its improvement in septic patients. METHODS Plasma proenkephalin A 119–159 (penKid) was assayed in 956 patients with sepsis or septic shock enrolled in the multicenter Albumin Italian Outcome Sepsis (ALBIOS) trial to test its association with incident AKI, improvement of renal function, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), and mortality. RESULTS Median [Q1–Q3] plasma penKid concentration on day 1 [84 (20–159) pmol/L[ was correlated with serum creatinine concentration (r = 0.74); it was higher in patients with chronic renal failure and rose progressively with the renal Sequential Organ Failure Assessment subscore. It predicted incident AKI within 48 h (adjusted odds ratio, 3.3; 95% CI, 2.1–5.1; P &lt; 0.0001) or 1 week [adjusted hazard ratio, 2.1 (1.7–2.8); P &lt; 0.0001] and future RRT during the intensive care unit stay [odds ratio, 4.0 (3.0–5.4)]. PenKid was also associated with improvements in renal function in patients with baseline serum creatinine &gt;2 mg/dL, both within the next 48 h [adjusted odds ratio, 0.31 (0.18–0.54), P &lt; 0.0001] and 1 week [0.23 (0.12–0.45)]. The time course of penKid concentrations predicted AKI and 90-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS Early measurement and the trajectory of penKid predict incident AKI, improvement of renal function, and the need for RRT in the acute phase after intensive care unit admission during sepsis or septic shock. PenKid measurement may be a valuable tool to test early therapies aimed at preventing the risk of AKI in sepsis.

Background and Purpose: We determined the rates and predictors of acute kidney injury (AKI) and renal adverse events (AEs), and effects of AKI and renal AEs on death or disability in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods: We analyzed data from a multicenter trial which randomized 1000 intracerebral hemorrhage patients with initial systolic blood pressure ≥180 mm Hg to intensive (goal 110–139 mm Hg) over standard (goal 140–179 mm Hg) systolic blood pressure reduction within 4.5 hours of symptom onset. AKI was identified by serial assessment of daily serum creatinine for 3 days post randomization. Results: AKI and renal AEs were observed in 149 patients (14.9%) and 65 patients (6.5%) among 1000 patients, respectively. In multivariate analysis, the higher baseline serum creatinine (≥110 μmol/L) was associated with AKI (odds ratio 2.4 [95% CI, 1.2–4.5]) and renal AEs (odds ratio 3.1 [95% CI, 1.2–8.1]). Higher area under the curve for intravenous nicardipine dose was associated with AKI (odds ratio 1.003 [95% CI, 1.001–1.005]) and renal AEs (odds ratio 1.003 [95% CI, 1.001–1.006]). There was a higher risk to death (relative risk 2.6 [95% CI, 1.6–4.2]) and death or disability (relative risk 1.5 [95% CI, 1.3–1.8]) at 90 days in patients with AKI but not in those with renal AEs. Conclusions: Intracerebral hemorrhage patients with higher baseline serum creatinine and those receiving higher doses of nicardipine were at higher risk for AKI and renal AEs. Occurrence of AKI was associated higher rates of death or disability at 3 months. Registration: URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov . Unique identifier: NCT01176565.
