Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutrophil and albumin are well-known biomarkers of inflammation, which are highly related to contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI). We aim to explore the predictive value of neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR) for CA-AKI and long-term mortality in patients without chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS We retrospectively observed 5083 consenting patients from January 2012 to December 2018. CA-AKI was defined as an increase in serum creatinine ≥50% or 0.3 mg/dL within 48 h after contrast medium exposure. RESULTS The incidence of CA-AKI was 5.6% (n=286). The optimal cut-off value of NPAR for predicting CA-AKI was 15.7 with 66.8% sensitivity and 61.9% specificity [C statistic=0.679; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.666-0.691]. NPAR displayed higher area under the curve values in comparison to neutrophil percentage (p < 0.001) and neutrophil-to-albumin ratio (NAR) (p < 0.001), but not albumin (p = 0.063). However, NPAR significantly improved the prediction of CA-AKI assessed by the continuous net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) compared to neutrophil percentage (NRI=0.353, 95% CI: 0.234-0.472, p < 0.001; IDI=0.017, 95% CI: 0.010-0.024, p < 0.001) and albumin (NRI=0.141, 95% CI: 0.022-0.260, p = 0.020; IDI=0.009, 95% CI: 0.003-0.015, p = 0.003) alone. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, multivariate analysis showed that NPAR >15.7 was a strong independent predictor of CA-AKI (odds ratio =1.90, 95% CI: 1.38-2.63, p < 0.001). Additionally, NPAR >15.7 was significantly associated with long-term mortality during a median of 2.9 years of follow-up (hazard ratio =1.68, 95% CI: 1.32-2.13; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS NPAR was an independent predictor of CA-AKI and long-term mortality in patients without CKD undergoing elective PCI.

[PMID: 16395531 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-005-0081-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2005] [Revised: 10/16/2005] [Accepted: 11/07/2005] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the effects of iodinated contrast media on blood components and endothelium based on experimental and clinical studies and to produce clinically relevant guidelines for reducing thrombotic and hematologic complications following the intravascular use of contrast media. A report was drafted after review of the literature and discussions among the members of the Contrast Media Safety Committee of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology. The final report was produced following discussion at the 12th European Symposium on Urogenital Radiology in Ljubljana, Slovenia (2005). Experimental data indicate that all iodinated contrast media produce an anticoagulant effect and that this effect is greater with ionic contrast media. Several of the in vitro and experimental in vivo studies on haematological effects of contrast media have not been confirmed by clinical studies. Low- or iso-osmolar contrast media should be used for diagnostic and interventional angiographic procedures, including phlebography. Meticulous angiographic technique is the most important factor for reducing the thrombotic complications associated with angiographic procedures. Drugs and interventional devices that decrease the risk of thromboembolic complications during interventional procedures minimize the importance of the effects of contrast media.

Addition of heparin to contrast media is associated with increased bleeding and peripheral vascular complications during percutaneous coronary intervention with bivalirudin and drug-eluting stents. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2005; 5:64-70. [PMID: 15464942 DOI: 10.1016/j.carrad.2004.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2004] [Revised: 06/16/2004] [Accepted: 06/16/2004] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonionic radiographic contrast media (CM) is reported to be thrombogenic while performing diagnostic or interventional procedures. To avoid thrombosis, heparin is often added to the CM. Bivalirudin, used to replace heparin during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is reported to be associated with reduced bleeding complications. We aimed to evaluate the impact of adding heparin to the CM during PCI in patients (pts) who underwent sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation when bivalirudin was utilized as the sole antithrombotic agent. METHODS A total of 664 pts with 756 lesions underwent standard PCI with SES for various coronary artery lesions. Pts were treated with either bivalirudin only (the bivalirudin group; 0.75 mg/kg bolus and 1.75 mg/kg/h infusion, n = 323 pts) or bivalirudin (same dose) plus low-dose heparin added to the CM (the heparin mix group; mean dose = 2101.8+/-882.5 U, n = 341 pts) during PCI. The periprocedural, in-hospital, and 30-day clinical outcomes were compared. RESULTS Baseline clinical and angiographic parameters were similar between both groups. Periprocedural, in-hospital, and 1-month clinical outcomes, including thrombotic complications, were similar between the two groups. There was no difference in the periprocedural thrombosis rate between the groups. In the heparin mix group, the overall incidence of hematoma was significantly higher (3.8% vs. 8.5%, P = .01), there was a trend toward higher rates of blood transfusion (2.6% vs. 6.6%, P = .06) and overall vascular complications (0.01% vs. 5.3%, P <.001), including pseudoaneurysm (PSA; 0.0% vs. 2.6%, P = .004), and pts who required surgical repair (0.3% vs. 1.8%, P = .07). CONCLUSIONS The routine addition of low-dose heparin to CM during contemporary PCI does not add any protection value and is associated with higher rates of bleeding and vascular complications.
