BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) in coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has high incidence and mortality. Risk factors for AKI in COVID-19 patients are not well explored. This systematic review provides a combination of available evidence regarding risk factors of AKI in COVID-19 patients. METHODS: A systematic research was performed in Medline, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and ScienceDirect journal databases from 2019 to August 2020. The study selection process was plotted using a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses flow diagram. RESULTS: Out of 553 studies found, four full-text studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in qualitative analysis. There are 2205 COVID-19 patients with AKI (36.44%) from 6051 COVID-19 patients. Age was a risk factors for AKI in two studies (odds ratio [OR] 1.03 [p < 0.001], OR 1.03 [p < 0.007]). Critical condition of patient is risk factors for AKI (OR 8.155 [p = 0.006]). Hirsch et al. stated that diabetes mellitus (OR 1.74 [p < 0.001]), cardiovascular disease (OR 1.48 [p < 0.001]), and hypertension (OR 1.25 [p = 0.02]) are also risk factors. Laboratory results such as elevated procalcitonin (PCT) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 showed positive association to AKI in COVID-19 patients (OR 4.822 [p = 0.037]; OR 13.451 [p = 0.016]). A higher sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score at admission is one of the risk factors (OR 1.498 [p = 0.027]). CONCLUSION: Demographics, clinical classification of COVID-19, comorbidities, SOFA score, PCT, and eGFR can help clinicians predict AKI in COVID-19 patients.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most challenging and serious complications of pregnancy and postpartum period that facing critical care nurses in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Having a uniform standard for identifying and classifying AKI would enhance critical care nurses’ ability to recognize these patients and leading to better outcomes.Objective: This work aimed to explore the risk factors and outcome of early identified acute kidney injury of critically obstetric patients in Obstetric ICU. Design. A descriptive cross sectional research design was used in this study. Participants: A total sample of 338 women admitted to Obstetric ICU at Woman Health Hospital, Assiut City, Egypt. Method: Three tools were used.Tool I was developed by the researcher and included demographic and obstetric history, lab parameters, complications and outcomes arising from AKI. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score as tool II to determine the extent of a patient's organ function or rate of failure. Measurement of serum creatinine and urine output were used to early identify AKI stages according to Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) Criteria (tool III). Results: The prevalence of AKI among obstetric patients admitted to obstetric ICU was 10.1%; of them 52.9% needed renal replacement therapy and the mortality rate was 29.4%. Postpartum hemorrhage was the most common cause of AKI and its prevalence was 41.2%. It was also found that 74.5% of AKI patients developed complications. Conclusion: AKI complicated 10.1% of total admitted women to the OICU in the studied period. Postpartum hemorrhage represents the most prevalent risk factors with a highly significant SOFA score compared to other risk factors as sever preeclampsia, eclampsia, HEELP & APH with acute fatty liver.

Abstract Objective:The incidence and mortality of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury is high. Many studies have explored the causes of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). However, its predictors are still uncertain; additionally, a complete overview is missing. A systematic review and a meta-analysis were performed to determine the predisposing factors for sepsis-induced AKI. Method: A systematic literature search was performed in the Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, PubMed and Web of Science databases, with an end date parameter of May 25, 2019. Valid data were retrieved in compliance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Result: Forty-seven observational studies were included for analysis. A cumulative number of 55911sepsis patients were evaluated. The incidence of AKI caused by septic shock is the highest. 30 possible risk factors were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that 20 factors were found to be significant. The odds ratio(OR),95% confidence interval (CI) and Prevalence of the most prevalent predisposing factors for sepsis-induced AKI were as the following: Septic shock[2.88(2.36-3.52), 60.47%], Hypertension[1.43(1.20-1.70),38.39%), Diabetes mellitus[1.59(1.47-1.71),27.57%],Abdominal infection[1.44(1.32-1.58),30.87%], Vasopressors use[2.95(1.67-5.22),64.61%],vasoactive drugs use [3.85(1.89-7.87),63.22%], Mechanical ventilation[1.64(1.24-2.16),68.00%), Positive blood culture[1.60(1.35-1.89), 41.19%], Smoke history[1.60(1.09-2.36),43.09%]. Other risk factors include cardiovascular, coronary artery disease, liver disease, unknow infection, diuretics use, ACEI or ARB, gram-negative bacteria and organ transplant. Conclusion: A large number of factors are associated with AKI development in sepsis patients. Our review can guide risk-reducing interventions, clinical prediction rules, and patient-specific treatment and management strategies for sepsis-induced acute kidney injury.

Abstract Background Administration of iodinated contrast is common but may be associated with contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), particularly in at-risk patients. There is no recent systematic review of potentially modifiable risk factors. Methods We searched MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (to 30 th June 2019) for observational studies assessing risk factors associated with CI-AKI. Twelve potentially modifiable risk factors were finally included in this thematic review and meta-analysis. Random or fixed meta-analysis was performed to derive the adjusted odds ratio (aOR), and the population attributable risk (PAR) was calculated for each risk factor globally and by region. Findings We included 157 studies (2,297,863 participants). The global incidence of CI-AKI was 5.4%. The potentially modifiable risk factors included high contrast volume (PAR 33%), eight cardiovascular risk factors (diuretic use, multivessel coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndrome, hypertension, hypotension, heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction and intra-aortic balloon pump use) (combined PAR 76.2%) and three noncardiovascular risk factors (renal dysfunction, diabetes mellitus and anaemia) (combined PAR 47.4%) with geographical differences.

Abstract Background Sepsis is the most common contributing factor towards development of acute kidney injury (AKI), which is strongly associated to poor prognostic outcomes. There are numerous epidemiological studies about sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI), however current literature is limited with the majority of studies being conducted only in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting. The aim of this study was to assess the epidemiology of S-AKI in all hospitalized in-patients.Methods This was a retrospective population-based study using a large regional population database in Beijing city from January, 2005 to December, 2017. It included patients with S-AKI. Patients with pre-existing end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), previous history of kidney transplantation, or being pregnant were excluded. Patients’ demographic characteristics, incidence, risk factors and outcomes of S-AKI were analyzed. The differences between different time periods, different levels of hospitals, and types of the hospitals (i.e. traditional Chinese medicine hospitals (TCMHs) and Western medicine hospitals (WMHs)) were also compared using Mann-Whitney U test.Results A total of 19,579 patients were included. The overall incidence of S-AKI in all in-patients was 48.1%. The risk factors for AKI included: age (P < 0.001), male (P < 0.001), treatment in a level-II hospital (P < 0.001) and so on. The overall mortality rate in this cohort was 55%. The risk factors for mortality included: age (P < 0.001), female (P < 0.001), pre-existing chronic kidney disease (CKD) (P = 0.023) and so on. The incidence of S-AKI increased over time, but the mortality rate did not. Compared with level-II hospitals, the incidence of S-AKI was similar in tertiary hospitals, but the mortality rate was significantly higher.Although patients treated in TCMHs had a shorter hospital stay and a lower cost of care, this cohort had a higher mortality rate when compared with patients treated in WMHs.Conclusions AKI is a common complication in all hospitalized patients with sepsis, and its incidence increases over time, especially when ICU admission is required. Exploring interventional strategies to address modifiable risk factors will be important to reduce incidence and mortality of S-AKI.

Abstract Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the incidence and some of risk factors of AKI after cardiac surgery using all three diagnostic criteria (AKIN,RIFLE, and KIDGO).Method: We searched for published literature in the English language in MEDLINE via PubMed, EMBASETM via Ovid, The Cochrane Library, and Trip database. For literature published in other languages, we searched national databases (Magiran and SID) , KoreaMed and LILACS, and we searched OpenGrey (www.opengrey.eu/) and the World Health Organization Clinical Trials Registry (who.int/ictrp) for unpublished literature and ongoing studies.To ensure the literature saturation, the list of the included research references or the relevant reviews found by searching was studied(MS). The keywords used in the search strategy were Acute kidney injury,acute renal failure, creatinine,cardiac surgery,heart surgury, Coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG),valve replacement,RIFLE (risk, injury, failure, loss, end-stage renal disease) ,Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN),KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) , which were combined using the AND, OR, and NOT operators.Results: A total of 33298 patients who had undergone the cardiac surgery were studied. Based on the random effect model the total prevalence of AKI in 33298 patients undergone the heart surgery was 26.3% (95% confidence interval[CI]:26.1%,26.6%, I2=99.5%). the total prevalence of AKI in patients undergone cardiac surgery based on AKIN criteria was 21.6% (95% CI –21.2%, 22.1%,I2=98.5%) of whom 21.6% (95% CI-21.2%,22.1%,I2=98.5%) were classified as AKIN stage 1, whereas 3% (95% CI-2.7%%,3.4%%,I2=90.6%) were classified as AKIN stage 2, and 3.2% (95% CI-3.0%%,3.4%%,I2=97.2%) were classified as AKIN stage 3. the total prevalence of AKI in patients undergone cardiac surgery based on RIFLE criteria was 26.0%% (95% CI –25.6%, 26.5%,I2=99.4%). total prevalence of AKI in patients undergone cardiac surgery based on KDIGO criteria was 34.7% (95% CI –33.8%, 35.7%,I2=98.4%). the highest prevalence of AKI in patients undergone cardiac surgery was in Brazil 45.7% (95% CI –43.6%, 47.8%) based on 3 articles included followed by USA with a prevalence of 29.6%(95% CI –28.7%, 29.4%) based on 7 articles included, Uruguay with a prevalence of 36.1%(95% CI –35%, 37.2%) based on 1 article, Canada with a prevalence of 16.7%(95% CI –15.7%, 17.6%) based on 4 articles included and Italy with a prevalence of 10.6%(95% CI –9.8%, 11.3%) based on 3 articles included.Conclusion: AKI after cardiac surgery is a common symptom, although most often more severe in elderly patients. The prevalence of AKI after cardiac surgery based on KDIGO criteria was found to be higher than RIFLE and AKIN. The prevalence of AKI regardless of the definition used showed a decreasing trend from 2009 to 2019. Our findings pointed to the superiority of the KDIGO criterion over RIFLE and AKIN for diagnosing and evaluating AKI after cardiac surgery. However, the widespread acceptance of consensus definitions ( RIFLE and AKIN criteria) for AKI is still reflected in the studies. In order to progress further, establishment of a uniform definition for AKI seems necessary.
