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.
