Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE The recent rise in acute kidney injury (AKI) incidence, with approximately 30% attributed to potentially preventable adverse drug events (ADEs), poses challenges in evaluating drug-induced AKI due to polypharmacy and other risk factors. This study seeks to consolidate knowledge on the drugs with AKI potential from four distinct sources: (i) bio(medical) peer-reviewed journals; (ii) spontaneous reporting systems (SRS); (iii) drug information databases (DIDs); and (iv) NephroTox website. By harnessing the potential of these underutilised sources, our objective is to bridge gaps and enhance the understanding of drug-induced AKI. METHODS By searching Medline, studies with lists of drugs with AKI potential established through consensus amongst medical experts were selected. A final list of 63 drugs was generated aggregating the original studies. For these 63 drugs, the AKI reporting odds ratios (RORs) using three SRS databases, the average frequency of ADEs from four different DIDs and the number of published studies identified via NephroTox was reported. RESULTS Drugs belonging to the antivirals, antibacterials, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pharmacological classes exhibit substantial consensus on AKI potential, which was also reflected in strong ROR signals, frequent to very frequent AKI-related ADEs and a high number of published studies reporting adverse kidney events as identified via NephroTox. Renin-angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitors and diuretics also display comparable signal strengths, but this can be attributed to expected haemodynamic changes. More variability is noted for proton-pump inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS By integrating four disjointed sources of knowledge, we have created a novel, comprehensive resource on drugs with AKI potential, contributing to kidney safety improvement efforts.

A pharmacovigilance study on clinical factors of active vitamin D 3 analog-related acute kidney injury using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report Database. Sci Rep 2024; 14:21356.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) due to vitamin D therapy for osteoporosis is encountered in clinical practice, but epidemiological studies are scarce. We aimed to determine the association between AKI and vitamin D therapy and to identify risk factors for AKI using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database. We used reporting odds ratios (RORs) to detect signals and evaluate risk factors using multiple logistic regression analysis. Among 298,891 reports from April 2004 to September 2023, 1071 implicated active vitamin D3 analogs as suspect drugs for adverse events. There was a significant association between AKI and active vitamin D3 analogs (ROR [95% confidence interval {CI}], eldecalcitol: 16.75 [14.23-19.72], P < 0.001; alfacalcidol: 5.29 [4.07-6.87], P < 0.001; calcitriol: 4.46 [1.88-10.59], P < 0.001). The median duration of administration before AKI onset was 15.4 weeks. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed a significant association between AKI and age ≥ 70 years (odds ratio [95% CI], 1.47 [1.04-2.07]; P = 0.028), weight < 50 kg (1.55 [1.12-2.13]; P = 0.007), hypertension (1.90 [1.42-2.54]; P < 0.001), and concomitant use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (1.58 [1.10-2.25], P = 0.012) and magnesium oxide (1.96 [1.38-2.78]; P < 0.001). Our results suggest that active vitamin D3 analogs are associated with AKI development. Physicians prescribing these medications to patients with risk factors should consider the possibility of AKI, especially during the first 6 months.

Silverii GA. Optimizing metformin therapy in practice: Tailoring therapy in specific patient groups to improve tolerability, efficacy and outcomes. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26 Suppl 3:42-54. [PMID: 38987983 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
Metformin is the first-line medication for type 2 diabetes. It is effective and safe, provided some caution is taken in specific populations. In patients with chronic kidney disease, metformin may provide long-term benefits, and it is a first-line therapy for diabetes, but the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) must be assessed regularly, to minimize the risk for metformin accumulation. When eGFR is 30-60 mL/min/1.73m2, the dose should be reconsidered, and sick-days education provided. Metformin should be discontinued when eGFR falls below 30 mL/min/1.73m2. Metformin accumulation may increase the risk for lactic acidosis if concomitant risk factors for hyperlactataemia (liver or respiratory insufficiency, sepsis, acute heart failure) are present; in these conditions, metformin is contraindicated, even although the available evidence is reassuring. Patients on metformin often complain of gastrointestinal side effects (mainly diarrhoea and nausea) during therapy initiation, but they may sometimes occur after years of stable therapy. These usually resolve if the dose is carefully titrated, or by switching to the extended-release formulation. Patients with obesity may benefit from the significant, although modest, metformin-associated weight loss and appetite reduction. During pregnancy, metformin is associated with a reduction of pregnancy complications, especially in obese women, but some concern remains, because metformin crosses the placenta, and it is associated with a significantly lower mean birth weight than insulin. In the elderly, gastrointestinal tolerability and renal function must be reassessed more often. Vitamin B-12 should be screened regularly in long-time metformin users because metformin may induce clinical vitamin B-12 deficiency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vancomycin is a renally eliminated, nephrotoxic, glycopeptide antibiotic with a narrow therapeutic window, widely used in intensive care units (ICU). We aimed to predict the risk of inappropriate vancomycin trough levels and appropriate dosing for each ICU patient. METHODS Observed vancomycin trough levels were categorized into sub-therapeutic, therapeutic, and supra-therapeutic levels to train and compare different classification models. We included adult ICU patients (≥ 18 years) with at least one vancomycin concentration measurement during hospitalization at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, from January 2007 to December 2017. RESULT The final cohort consisted of 5337 vancomycin courses. The XGBoost models outperformed other machine learning models with the AUC-ROC of 0.85 and 0.83, specificity of 53% and 47%, and sensitivity of 94% and 94% for sub- and supra-therapeutic categories, respectively. Kinetic estimated glomerular filtration rate and other creatinine-based measurements, vancomycin regimen (dose and interval), comorbidities, body mass index, age, sex, and blood pressure were among the most important variables in the models. CONCLUSION We developed models to assess the risk of sub- and supra-therapeutic vancomycin trough levels to improve the accuracy of drug dosing in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Background Drugs are a frequent cause of nephrotoxicity, especially in the context of acute kidney disease (AKD), with a significant number of cases being drug-associated. The WHO's VigiBase is a powerful tool for identifying drugs described and associated with the development of AKD. Methods We retrieved data from the period 1968 to 2022 regarding notifications of adverse drug reactions (ADR). The extracted medications were evaluated for their nephrotoxicity based on the bibliographic score (BS) developed through pre-selected references. The main medications involved were classified as 'non-nephrotoxic', 'potentially nephrotoxic', and 'nephrotoxic'. We utilized the IC025 and reporting odds ratio (ROR) disproportionality indexes to study the relationship between medications and the odds of being included in an AKD notification. Results During the period, a total of 33,932,051 notifications were obtained, revealing 435,677 cases related to drug-associated AKD following MedDRA term filtering, predominantly affecting males aged 45-64. We identified 8,991 active ingredients or suspected combinations associated with AKD development, with the ATC class A - Alimentary Tract and Metabolism being the most frequently described. Among the medications most strongly associated with this phenotype, classes J and N stood out. Among the most notable medications collected, 8.3% were classified as "non-nephrotoxic," 16.7% as "potentially nephrotoxic," and 75% as "known nephrotoxic." Notable active ingredients included cobicistat + elvitegravir + emtricitabine + tenofovir disoproxil (IC025 8.7; ROR 786.96), inotersen (IC025 7.7; ROR 604.57), emtricitabine + tenofovir disoproxil (IC025 7.9; ROR 432.36), esomeprazole (IC025 6.8; ROR 184.23), and pantoprazole (IC025 6.3; ROR 109.86), with proton pump inhibitors dominating the top four positions among the most frequently involved medications. Conclusion AKD is a frequent adverse reaction in VigiBase, with a significantly high reported mortality rate. Evaluation of the notifications revealed medications with a high disproportionality index and a strong association with AKD. We also highlight the potential nephrotoxic role of less suspected medications. This study emphasizes the need to consider AKD as a condition potentially associated with iatrogenic etiology, highlighting various medications and their respective involvement in the various possible manifestations of AKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-induced delirium is known risk factors associated with increased morbidity and mortality in older patients. The objective was to evaluate the risk of drug-related delirium in older patients based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Delirium reports in older patients (age ≥65) extracted from the FAERS database using Open Vigil 2.1. The reported odds ratio and the proportional reported ratio were calculated to detect the adverse reaction signal of delirium. Combined with published evidence, suspected drugs were categorized as known, possible, or new potential delirium-risk-increasing drugs. RESULTS Of the 130,885 reports (including 28,850 delirium events and 1,857 drugs) analyzed for this study, 314 positive signal drugs were detected. Positive signal drugs are mainly concentrated on the drug of nervous system, cardiovascular system , alimentary tract and metabolism and anti-infectives for systemic use. Of the positive signal drugs, 26.11% (82/314) were known delirium-risk increasing drugs, 44.90% (141/314) were possible and 28.98% (91/314) were new potential. CONCLUSION Drug-induced delirium risk is prevalent in older patients, according to the FAERS. The risk level of drug-induced delirium should be taken into account to optimize drug therapy in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nephrotoxin exposure is significantly associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) development. A standardized list of nephrotoxic medications to surveil and their perceived nephrotoxic potential (NxP) does not exist for non-critically ill patients. OBJECTIVE This study generated consensus on the nephrotoxic effect of 195 medications used in the non-intensive care setting. METHODS Potentially nephrotoxic medications were identified through a comprehensive literature search, and 29 participants with nephrology or pharmacist expertise were identified. The primary outcome was NxP by consensus. Participants rated each drug on a scale of 0-3 (not nephrotoxic to definite nephrotoxicity). Group consensus was met if ≥ 75% of responses were one single rating or a combination of two consecutive ratings. If ≥ 50% of responses indicated "unknown" or not used in the non-intensive care setting, the medication was removed for consideration. Medications not meeting consensus for a given round were included in the subsequent round(s). RESULTS A total of 191 medications were identified in the literature, with 4 medications added after the first round from participants' recommendations. NxP index rating consensus after three rounds was: 14 (7.2%) no NxP in almost all situations (rating 0); 62 (31.8%) unlikely/possibly nephrotoxic (rating 0.5); 21 (10.8%) possibly nephrotoxic (rating 1); 49 (25.1%) possibly/probably nephrotoxic (rating 1.5); 2 (1.0%) probably nephrotoxic (rating 2); 8 (4.1%) probably/definite nephrotoxic (rating 2.5); 0 (0.0%) definitely nephrotoxic (rating 3); and 39 (20.0%) medications were removed from consideration. CONCLUSIONS NxP index rating provides clinical consensus on perceived nephrotoxic medications in the non-intensive care setting and homogeneity for future clinical evaluations and research.

Abstract
The United States Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) logged 27,140 rhabdomyolysis cases from 2004 to 31 March 2020. We used FAERS to identify 14 drugs frequently reported in 6583 rhabdomyolysis cases and to investigate whether mitochondrial toxicity is a common pathway of drug-induced rhabdomyolysis by these drugs. Preliminary screening for mitochondrial toxicity was performed using the acute metabolic switch assay, which is adapted here for use in murine L6 cells. Fenofibrate, risperidone, pregabalin, propofol, and simvastatin lactone drugs were identified as mitotoxic and underwent further investigation, using real-time respirometry (Seahorse Technology) to provide more detail on the mechanism of mitochondrial-induced toxicity. To confirm the human relevance of the findings, fenofibrate and risperidone were evaluated in primary human skeletal muscle-derived cells (HSKMDC), using the acute metabolic switch assay and real-time respirometry, which confirmed this designation, although the toxic effects on the mitochondria were more pronounced in HSKMDC. Overall, these studies demonstrate that the L6 model of acute modification may find utility as an initial, cost-effective screen for identifying potential myotoxicants with relevance to humans and, importantly, that drug-induced mitochondrial dysfunction may be a common mechanism shared by some drugs that induce myotoxicity.

Abstract
Proton Pump Inhibitors are used widely to manage many gastric acid-related conditions such as gastroesophageal disease, gastritis, esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, peptic ulcer disease, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-associated ulcers, and Helicobacter pylori eradication, around the globe. This review article focuses on adverse effects associated with the long-term use of proton pump inhibitors. Various observational studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses have established the adverse effects associated with the long-term use of proton pump inhibitors including renal disorders (acute interstitial nephritis, acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease), cardiovascular risks (major adverse cardiovascular events, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, and stroke), fractures, infections (Clostridium difficile infection, community-acquired pneumonia, and Coronavirus disease 2019), micronutrient deficiencies (hypomagnesemia, anemia, vitamin B12 deficiency, hypocalcemia, hypokalemia), hypergastrinemia, cancers (gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, hepatic cancer), hepatic encephalopathy, and dementia. Clinicians including prescribers and pharmacists should be aware of the adverse effects of taking proton pump inhibitors for an extended period of time. In addition, the patients taking proton pump inhibitors for long-term should be monitored for the listed adverse effects. The American Gastroenterological association recommends a few non-pharmacological measures and the use of histamine 2 blockers to lessen gastrointestinal symptoms of gastroesophageal reflex disease and the utilization of proton pump inhibitors treatment if there is a definitive indication. Additionally, the American Gastroenterological association's Best Practice Advice statements emphasize deprescribing when there is no clear indication for proton pump inhibitors therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative acute kidney injury (AKI) caused by ischemia-reperfusion (IR) is a significant contributor to mortality and morbidity after major surgery. Furosemide is commonly used in postoperative patients to promote diuresis and reduce tissue edema. However, the effects of furosemide on renal microcirculation, oxygenation and function are poorly understood during perioperative period following ischemic insult. Herein, we investigated the effects of furosemide in rats subjected IR insult. METHODS 24 Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 groups, with 6 in each; Sham-operated Control (C), Control + Furosemide (C + F), ischemia/reperfusion (IR), and IR + F. After induction of anesthesia (BL), supra-aortic occlusion was applied to IR and IR + F groups for 45 min followed by ongoing reperfusion for 15 min (T1) and 2 h (T2). Furosemide infusion was initiated simultaneously in the intervention groups after ischemia. Renal blood flow (RBF), vascular resistance (RVR), oxygen delivery (DO2ren) and consumption (VO2ren), sodium reabsorption (TNa+), oxygen utilization efficiency (VO2/TNa+), cortical (CμO2) and medullary (MμO2) microvascular oxygen pressures, urine output (UO) and creatinine clearance (Ccr) were measured. Biomarkers of inflammation, oxidative and nitrosative stress were measured and kidneys were harvested for histological analysis. RESULTS IR significantly decreased RBF, mainly by increasing RVR, which was exacerbated in the IR + F group at T2 (2198 ± 879 vs 4233 ± 2636 dyne/s/cm5, p = 0.07). CμO2 (61.6 ± 6.8 vs 86 ± 6.6 mmHg) and MμO2 (51.1 ± 4.1 vs 68.7 ± 4.9 mmHg, p < 0.05) were both reduced after IR and did not improve by furosemide. Moreover, VO2/TNa+ increased in the IR + F group at T2 with respect to the IR group (IR: 3.3 ± 2 vs IR + F: 8.2 ± 10 p = 0.07) suggesting a possible deterioration of oxygen utilization. Ccr did not change, but plasma creatinine increased significantly in IR + F groups. Histopathology revealed widespread damage both in the cortex and medulla in IR, IR + F and C + F groups. CONCLUSION Renal microvascular oxygenation, renal function, renal vascular resistance, oxygen utilization and damage were not improved by furosemide administration after IR insult. Our study suggests that furosemide may cause additional structural and functional impairment to the kidney following ischemic injury and should be used with caution.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary care provides an opportunity to prevent community acquired, medicine or drug-induced acute kidney injury. One of the barriers to proactive prevention of medicine-induced kidney injury in primary care is the lack of a list of nephrotoxic medicines that are most problematic in primary care, particularly one that provides a comparison of risks across medicines. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to consolidate evidence on the risks associated with medicines and acute kidney injury, with a focus on medicines used in primary care. METHOD We searched the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases to identify published studies of all medicines associated with acute kidney injury identified from spontaneous report data. For each medicine positively associated with acute kidney injury, as identified from spontaneous reports, we implemented a sequence symmetry analysis (SSA) and a case-control design to determine the association between the medicine and hospital admission with a primary diagnosis of acute kidney injury (representing community-acquired acute kidney injury). Administrative claims data held by the Australian Government Department of Veterans' Affairs for the study period 2005-2019 were used. RESULTS We identified 89 medicines suspected of causing acute kidney injury based on spontaneous report data and a reporting odds ratio above 2, from Japan, France and the US. Spironolactone had risk estimates of 3 or more based on spontaneous reports, SSA and case-control methods, while furosemide and trimethoprim with sulfamethoxazole had risk estimates of 1.5 or more. Positive association with SSA and spontaneous reports, but not case control, showed zoledronic acid had risk estimates above 2, while candesartan telmisartan, simvastatin, naproxen and ibuprofen all had risk estimates in SSA between 1.5 and 2. Positive associations with case-control and spontaneous reports, but not SSA, were found for amphotericin B, omeprazole, metformin, amlodipine, ramipril, olmesartan, ciprofloxacin, valaciclovir, mycophenolate and diclofenac. All with the exception of metformin and omeprazole had risk estimates above 2. CONCLUSION This research highlights a number of medicines that may contribute to acute injury; however, we had an insufficient sample to confirm associations of some medicines. Spironolactone, furosemide, and trimethoprim with sulfamethoxazole are medicines that, in particular, need to be used carefully and monitored closely in patients in the community at risk of acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a disease caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and has represented one of the greatest challenges humanity has faced in recent years. The virus can infect a large number of organs, including the lungs and upper respiratory tract, brain, liver, kidneys, and intestines, among many others. Although the greatest damage occurs in the lungs, the kidneys are not exempt, and acute kidney injury (AKI) can occur in patients with COVID-19. Indeed, AKI is one of the most frequent and serious organic complications of COVID-19. The incidence of COVID-19 AKI varies widely, and the exact mechanisms of how the virus damages the kidney are still unknown. For this reason, the purpose of this review was to assess current findings on the pathogenesis, clinical features, therapy, and mortality of COVID-19 AKI.

Abstract
The number of fractures related to osteoporosis is expected to increase. Therefore, clarifying the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with each type of anti-osteoporotic drug may avoid discontinuation of osteoporosis pharmacotherapy due to onset of AKI. This cross-sectional study using disproportional analysis and a pharmacovigilance database assessed the risk of AKI with various anti-osteoporotic drugs by analyzing data entered into the US Food and Drug Administration's Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from April 2014 to March 2021 and the Medical Data Vision (MDV) database in Japan in November 2021. All anti-osteoporotic drugs were investigated, including bisphosphonates, selective estrogen receptor modulators, denosumab, romosozumab, abaloparatide, and teriparatide. In the analysis of FAERS data, disproportionality for decreasing AKI was observed for oral ibandronate [reporting odds ratios (ROR) 0.22, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.09-0.45, P < 0.01], bazedoxifene (ROR 0.26, 95% CI 0.05-0.77, P = 0.01), and intravenous ibandronate (ROR 0.39, 95% CI 0.14-0.86, P = 0.01). In the analysis of the MDV data, the incidence of AKI was lower in patients taking intravenous ibandronate [odds ratio (OR) 0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.89, P = 0.03], and the incidence of AKI was higher in patients taking oral alendronate (OR 2.40, 95% CI 2.08-2.77, P < 0.01). Risk of AKI may differ even among oral anti-osteoporotic drugs, and the evidence of this association should be assessed further in future drug safety studies. This article is protected by copyright.

Abstract
Introduction The approach to evaluating nephrotoxins in studies of drug-associated acute kidney injury varies. Some studies use a list of under ten drugs for evaluation whereas others include over 100 drugs. Drugs are typically assigned a binary classification, nephrotoxic or not nephrotoxic. This oversimplifies the nephrotoxic potential of the drugs under investigation. Objective This study aimed to assign a nephrotoxin potential for 167 drugs used in the adult critical care setting. Methods A three-round, international, interdisciplinary, web-based modified-Delphi study was used to evaluate nephrotoxins used in adult critically ill patients. Twenty-four international experienced clinicians were identified through the Acute Disease Quality Initiative group and professional affiliations. Included individuals represented the fields of intensive care, nephrology, and pharmacy. One hundred and fifty-nine medications were identified from the literature, with eight additional medications added after the first round, for a total of 167 medications. The primary outcome was consensus achieved for nephrotoxicity ratings. Scores were evaluated each round to determine if a consensus was met. Results Our nephrotoxin potential index rating indicated that 20 drugs were nephrotoxicity probable or probable/definite per consensus. Nephrotoxic potential was assessed based on the standard use of medications in intensive care and the following consensus scores: 0 = no nephrotoxic potential, 1 = possible nephrotoxic potential, 2 = probable nephrotoxic potential, 3 = definite nephrotoxic potential. Conclusions The nephrotoxin potential index rating allows for prioritization of targeted drugs with greater nephrotoxic potential for institutional nephrotoxin stewardship programs. Furthermore, the nephrotoxin potential index rating provides homogeneity for research and guidance on detailed assessments by severity for each drug.

Abstract
One of the largest spontaneous adverse events reporting databases in the world is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Unfortunately, researchers face many obstacles in analyzing data from the FAERS database. One of the major obstacles is the unstructured entry of drug names into the FAERS, as reporters might use generic names or trade names with different naming structures from all over the world and, in some cases, with typographical errors. Moreover, report duplication is a known problem in spontaneous adverse event-reporting systems, including the FAERS database. Hence, thorough text processing for database entries, especially drug name entries, coupled with a practical case-deduplication logic, is a prerequisite to analyze the database, which is a time- and resource-consuming procedure. In this study, we provide a clean, deduplicated, and ready-to-import dataset into any relational database management software of the FAERS database up to September 2021. Drug names are standardized to the RxNorm vocabulary and normalized to the single active ingredient level. Moreover, a pre-calculated disproportionate analysis is provided, which includes the reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Chi-squared analysis with Yates correction (x2), and information component (IC) for each drug-adverse event pair in the database.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, it was believed to be a direct respiratory virus. But, its deleterious effects were observed on different body systems, including kidneys. AIM OF WORK In this review, we tried as much as we can to summarize what has been discussed in the literature about the relation between SARS-CoV-2 infection and kidneys since December, 2019. METHODS Each part of the review was assigned to one or two authors to search for relevant articles in three databases (Pubmed, Scopus and Google scholar) and collected data were summarized and revised by two independent researchers. CONCLUSION The complexity of COVID-19 pandemic and kidney could be attributed to the direct effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the kidneys, different clinical presentation, difficulties confronting dialysis patients, restrictions of the organ transplant programs, poor outcomes and bad prognosis in patients with known history of kidney diseases who got infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Pharmacovigilance improves patient safety by detecting and preventing adverse drug events. However, challenges exist that limit adverse drug event detection, resulting in many adverse drug events being underreported or inaccurately reported. One challenge includes having access to large data sets from various sources including electronic health records and wearable medical devices. Artificial intelligence, including machine learning methods, such as natural language processing and deep learning, can detect and extract information about adverse drug events, thus automating the pharmacovigilance process and improving the surveillance of known and documented adverse drug events. In addition, with the increased demand for telehealth services, for managing both acute and chronic diseases, artificial intelligence methods can play a role in detecting and preventing adverse drug events. In this review, we discuss two use cases of how artificial intelligence methods may be useful to improve the quality of pharmacovigilance and the role of artificial intelligence in telehealth practices.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant increases in short- and long-term morbidity and mortality. Drug-induced AKI is a major concern in the present healthcare system. Our spontaneous reporting system (SRS) analysis assessed links between AKI, along with patients’ age, as healthcare-associated risks and administered anti-infectives. We also generated anti-infective-related AKI-onset profiles. Method We calculated reporting odds ratios (RORs) for reports of anti-infective-related AKI (per Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database and evaluated the effect of anti-infective combination therapy. The background factors of cases with anti-infective monotherapy and combination therapy (≥ 2 anti-infectives) were matched using propensity score. We evaluated time-to-onset data and hazard types using the Weibull parameter. Results Among 534,688 reports (submission period: April 2004–June 2018), there were 21,727 AKI events. The reported number of AKI associated with glycopeptide antibacterials, fluoroquinolones, third-generation cephalosporins, triazole derivatives, and carbapenems were 596, 494, 341, 315, and 313, respectively. Crude RORs of anti-infective-related AKI increased among older patients and were higher in anti-infective combination therapies [anti-infectives, ≥ 2; ROR, 1.94 (1.80–2.09)] than in monotherapies [ROR, 1.29 (1.22–1.36)]. After propensity score matching, the adjusted RORs of anti-infective monotherapy and combination therapy (≥ 2 anti-infectives) were 0.67 (0.58–0.77) and 1.49 (1.29–1.71), respectively. Moreover, 48.1% of AKI occurred within 5 days (median, 5.0 days) of anti-infective therapy initiation. Conclusion RORs derived from our new SRS analysis indicate potential AKI risks and number of administered anti-infectives.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with cancer chemotherapy can be life-threatening. Inhibitors of rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma kinase B (BRAF)-mutants and mitogen-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK) administered as combination therapy are effective against BRAF-mutant melanoma, but drug-associated AKI events were reported after marketing. Here, we examined the nephrotoxicity of two BRAF inhibitors, vemurafenib and dabrafenib, and two MEK inhibitors, cobimetinib and trametinib, in a real-world setting and human kidney cells. Target drug-associated AKI signals were detected by reporting odds ratio (ROR) derived from report data in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System database. In-vitro cytotoxicity was evaluated in proximal renal tubular epithelial cells (RPTEC), glomerular endothelial cells (GEnC), and glomerular epithelial cells (GEpC). RESULTS AKI RORs associated with vemurafenib [ROR, 3.28; confidence interval (CI), 2.91-3.69] and cobimetinib (ROR, 4.40; CI, 3.55-5.45) were higher than those associated with dabrafenib (ROR, 1.35; CI, 1.15-1.60) and trametinib (ROR, 1.32; CI, 1.11-1.56). Vemurafenib reduced cell viability and increased cell death in RPTEC and GEpC at 10 μM, which was below the mean maximum concentration in blood under steady-state condition [115.7 μM (56.7 μg/mL)]. No vemurafenib-associated cytotoxicity was detected in GEnC. Mean maximum concentrations of cobimetinib, dabrafenib and trametinib did not induce cell death. CONCLUSION This work revealed that vemurafenib had stronger cytotoxic effects on tubular and glomerular epithelial cells than the other BRAF and MEK inhibitors. Hence, we recommend careful monitoring for clinical signs of kidney injury in patients treated with vemurafenib.

[PMID: 33917573 PMCID: PMC8067485 DOI: 10.3390/ph14040336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2021] [Revised: 03/29/2021] [Accepted: 03/30/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused more than 100,000,000 cases of coronavirus infection in the world in just a year, of which there were 2 million deaths. Its clinical picture is characterized by pulmonary involvement that culminates, in the most severe cases, in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, COVID-19 affects other organs and systems, including cardiovascular, urinary, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems. Currently, unique-drug therapy is not supported by international guidelines. In this context, it is important to resort to adjuvant therapies in combination with traditional pharmacological treatments. Among natural bioactive compounds, palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) seems to have potentially beneficial effects. In fact, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized an ongoing clinical trial with ultramicronized (um)-PEA as an add-on therapy in the treatment of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. In support of this hypothesis, in vitro and in vivo studies have highlighted the immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and pain-relieving effects of PEA, especially in its um form. The purpose of this review is to highlight the potential use of um-PEA as an adjuvant treatment in SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug-induced acute kidney injury (D-AKI) is one of the important types of AKI. The incidence of D-AKI in China has rarely been studied. OBJECTIVE This study aims to explore the disease burden, related drugs, and risk factors of D-AKI. METHODS A nationwide cross-sectional survey was conducted in adult patients from 23 academic hospitals in 17 provinces in China. Suspected AKI was screened based on serum creatinine changes in accordance with the 2012 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes Clinical Practice Guideline for AKI, patients who met the diagnosis of hospital-acquired AKI in January and July of 2014 were defined. Suspected AKI was firstly evaluated for the possibility of D-AKI by pharmacists using the Naranjo Scale and finally defined as D-AKI by nephrologists through reviewing AKI clinical features. RESULTS Altogether 280,255 hospitalized patients were screened and 1,960 cases were diagnosed as hospital-acquired AKI, among which 735 cases were defined as having D-AKI (37.50%, 735/1,960) with an in-hospital mortality rate of 13.88% and 54.34% of the survivors did not achieve full renal recovery. 1,642 drugs were related to AKI in these patients. Anti-infectives, diuretics, and proton pump inhibitors were the top 3 types of drugs relevant to D-AKI, accounting for 66.63% cumulatively. Besides age, AKI staging, severe disease, hypoalbuminemia, plasma substitute, and carbapenem related D-AKI were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality of D-AKI patients. CONCLUSION In China, D-AKI has caused a substantial medical burden. Efforts should be made to pursue nephrotoxic drug stewardship to minimize attributable risk and improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of D-AKI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Between 2012 and 2017, the FDA approved 29 therapies for a cardiovascular disease (CVD) indication. Due to the limited literature on patient safety outcomes for recently approved CVD medications, this study investigated adverse drug reports (ADRs) reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). METHODS A disproportionality analysis of spontaneously reported ADR was conducted. Reports in FAERS from Quarter 1, 2012, through Quarter 1, 2019, were compiled, allowing a 2-year buffer following drug approval in 2017. Top 10 reported ADRs and reporting odds ratios (ROR; confidence interval (CI)), a measure of disproportionality, were analyzed and compared to drugs available prior to 2012 as appropriate. RESULTS Of 7,952,147 ADR reports, 95,016 (1.19%) consisted of reports for newly approved CVD medications. For oral anticoagulants, apixaban had significantly lower reports for anemia and renal failure compared to dabigatran and rivaroxaban but greater reports for neurological signs/symptoms, and arrhythmias. Evaluating heart failure drugs, sacubitril/valsartan had greater reports for acute kidney injury, coughing, potassium imbalances, and renal impairment but notably, lower for angioedema compared to lisinopril. Assessing familial hypercholesterolemia drugs, alirocumab had greater reports for joint-related-signs/symptoms compared to other agents in this category. A newer pulmonary arterial hypertension treatment, selexipag, had greater reports of reporting for bone/joint-related-signs/symptoms but riociguat had greater reports for hemorrhages and vascular hypotension. CONCLUSION Pharmacovigilance studies allow an essential opportunity to evaluate the safety profile of CVD medications in clinical practice. Additional research is needed to evaluate these reported safety concerns for recently approved CVD medications.

Abstract
Drugs are the third leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients. Nephrotoxin stewardship ensures a structured and consistent approach to safe medication use and prevention of patient harm. Comprehensive nephrotoxin stewardship requires coordinated patient care management strategies for safe medication use, ensuring kidney health, and avoiding unnecessary costs to improve the use of nephrotoxins, renally eliminated drugs, and kidney disease treatments. Implementing nephrotoxin stewardship reduces medication errors and adverse drug events, prevents or reduces severity of drug-associated AKI, prevents progression to or worsening of chronic kidney disease, and alleviates financial burden on the health care system.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were widely used. Observational studies suggested increasing risk of kidney injury in patients with PPIs treatment. We gathered six PPI regimens and adverse reports of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) based on US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database from 2004 to 2019. We employed reporting odds ratio (ROR) to detect signals. Finally, we identified 3187 PPIs-associated AKI cases and 3457 PPIs-associated CKD cases. We detected significant signals between PPIs and AKI as well as CKD. The signal strength was stronger for CKD (ROR = 8.80, 95% CI 8.49–9.13) than AKI (ROR = 3.95, 95% CI 3.81–4.10), while dexlansoprazole performed stronger association for CKD (ROR = 34.94, 95% CI 30.89–39.53) and AKI (ROR = 8.18, 95% CI 7.04–9.51) than the other five PPIs. The median time from PPIs use to event occurrence was 23 days for AKI and 177 days for CKD. PPIs-associated AKI resulted larger proportion of death, life-threatening, hospitalization and disability events than PPIs-associated CKD. By mining the FAERS big data, we provided more information between PPIs use and the AKI and CKD events. PPIs rational use should be repeatedly stressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown conflicting observations regarding the correlation between sodium-glucose-cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and acute renal failure. Although wide use has contributed to the accumulation of safety information on SGLT2i, the examination of the countries reporting cases of SGLT2i use and influence of concomitant drugs has been insufficient in studies using spontaneous adverse event reporting databases. OBJECTIVE We aimed to re-examine the correlation between SGLT2i and acute renal failure using the latest United States Food and Drug Administration's Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) records and to conduct a stratified analysis for the reporting countries (Japan or other countries), as well as the concomitant use of drugs such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEis) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) with SGLT2i. PATIENTS AND METHODS The reporting odds ratio (ROR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for cases recorded on FAERS from January 2013 to March 2020 were calculated. We then limited the cases to patients using SGLT2i and receiving treatment for diabetes mellitus and then calculated the ROR. A stratified analysis was performed for reporting countries (Japan or other countries), and the presence or absence of concomitant use of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) to examine their influence on the correlation between SGLT2i and acute renal failure. RESULTS Of the 5,337,069 cases of adverse events recorded on FAERS, 410,569 were cases in which patients had received treatment for diabetes. The ROR for SGLT2i calculated from the total analysis subjects was 4.16 (95% CI 4.01-4.31), suggesting its correlation with acute renal failure. Similar results were obtained for the cases in which patients had received treatment for diabetes. However, the stratified analysis of these diabetes-treatment cases for reporting countries showed no correlation between SGLT2i and acute renal failure in cases reported in Japan with ROR 0.58 (95% CI 0.49-0.69). In contrast, a correlation was suggested in cases reported in countries other than Japan with ROR 1.91 (95% CI 1.83-1.98). Moreover, the stratified analysis for the concomitant use of an ACEi or ARB showed that the ROR tended to be low in the cases with one of these drugs. CONCLUSION Examination with the signal detection method using FAERS suggested the correlation between SGLT2i and the onset of acute renal failure. However, when focusing on the cases reported in Japan, such a correlation was not suggested. In addition, this study indicated that the signal of acute renal failure tends to be reduced in cases with the concomitant use of either an ACEi or ARB. Through this study we suggest that patients should be closely monitored when they take SGLT2i without an ACEi or ARB.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major health problem with poor prognosis. However, little is known about elderly community-acquired-AKI (CA-AKI). This study aimed to investigate the incidence, clinical characteristics, outcomes and use of suspected nephrotoxic medications after CA-AKI in the elderly. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 36,445 patients aged over 60 years were recruited from 2013 to 2016. Through an electronic database, we collected the demographic and medical history data, and admission lab results from all patients. RESULTS A total of 2371 patients with CA-AKI were identified. The incidence of CA-AKI was 26.03% in the elderly. The proportion of CA-AKI patients with chronic comorbidities and Charlson comorbidity index score were higher than that of non-AKI patients. After CA-AKI, the proportions of exposure to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), iodine contrast agent, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) were significantly decreased (p < 0.001). However, the proportion of other possible nephrotoxic drugs (including aminoglycosides, glycopeptide antibiotics, antifungal agents, beta lactam antibiotics, diuretic, ferralia, adrenergic receptor agonists and drugs for cardiac insufficiency therapy) still increased after CA-AKI (p < 0.001). Compared with non-AKI patients, CA-AKI patients had higher percentage of cardiogenic shock, multiple organ failure, transferring to intensive care unit, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, hemodialysis, and mortality (p < 0.001). Moreover, CA-AKI patients had worse prognosis when more kinds of suspected nephrotoxic drugs were used (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The incidence of CA-AKI in the elderly was high, with more complex chronic complications and poor clinical outcomes. The use of most suspected nephrotoxic drugs still increased and was associated with worse prognosis after CA-AKI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug-induced QTc-prolongation is a well-known adverse drug reaction (ADR), however there is limited knowledge of other drug-induced arrhythmias. PURPOSE The objective of this study is to determine the drugs reported to be associated with arrhythmias other than QTc-prolongation using the FAERS database, possibly identifying potential drug causes that have not been reported previously. METHODS FAERS reports from 2004 quarter 1 through 2019 quarter 1 were combined to create a dataset of approximately 11.6 million reports. Search terms for arrhythmias of interest were selected from the Standardized MedDRA Queries (SMQ) Version 12.0. Frequency of the cardiac arrhythmias were determined for atrial fibrillation, atrioventricular block, bradyarrhythmia, bundle branch block, supraventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation and linked to the reported causal medications. Reports were further categorized by prior evidence associations using package inserts and established drug databases. A reporting odds ratio (ROR) and confidence interval (CI) were calculated for the ADRs for each drug and each of the 6 cardiac arrhythmias. RESULTS Of the 11.6 million reports in the FAERS database, 68,989 were specific to cardiac arrhythmias of interest. There were 61 identified medication-reported arrhythmia pairs for the 6 arrhythmia groups with 33 found to have an unknown reported association. Rosiglitazone was the most frequently medication reported across all arrhythmias [ROR 6.02 (CI: 5.82-6.22)]. Other medications with significant findings included: rofecoxib, digoxin, alendronate, lenalidomide, dronedarone, zoledronic acid, adalimumab, dabigatran, and interferon beta-1b. CONCLUSION Upon retrospective analysis of the FAERS database, the majority of drug-associated arrhythmias reported were unknown suggesting new potential drug causes. Cardiac arrhythmias other than QTc prolongation are a new area of focus for pharmacovigilance and medication safety. Consideration of future studies should be given to using the FAERS database as a timely pharmacovigilance tool to identify unknown adverse events of medications.

Abstract
Kidney involvement in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is common, and can range from the presence of proteinuria and haematuria to acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT; also known as kidney replacement therapy). COVID-19-associated AKI (COVID-19 AKI) is associated with high mortality and serves as an independent risk factor for all-cause in-hospital death in patients with COVID-19. The pathophysiology and mechanisms of AKI in patients with COVID-19 have not been fully elucidated and seem to be multifactorial, in keeping with the pathophysiology of AKI in other patients who are critically ill. Little is known about the prevention and management of COVID-19 AKI. The emergence of regional 'surges' in COVID-19 cases can limit hospital resources, including dialysis availability and supplies; thus, careful daily assessment of available resources is needed. In this Consensus Statement, the Acute Disease Quality Initiative provides recommendations for the diagnosis, prevention and management of COVID-19 AKI based on current literature. We also make recommendations for areas of future research, which are aimed at improving understanding of the underlying processes and improving outcomes for patients with COVID-19 AKI.

Abstract
Kidney involvement in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is common, and can range from the presence of proteinuria and haematuria to acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT; also known as kidney replacement therapy). COVID-19-associated AKI (COVID-19 AKI) is associated with high mortality and serves as an independent risk factor for all-cause in-hospital death in patients with COVID-19. The pathophysiology and mechanisms of AKI in patients with COVID-19 have not been fully elucidated and seem to be multifactorial, in keeping with the pathophysiology of AKI in other patients who are critically ill. Little is known about the prevention and management of COVID-19 AKI. The emergence of regional 'surges' in COVID-19 cases can limit hospital resources, including dialysis availability and supplies; thus, careful daily assessment of available resources is needed. In this Consensus Statement, the Acute Disease Quality Initiative provides recommendations for the diagnosis, prevention and management of COVID-19 AKI based on current literature. We also make recommendations for areas of future research, which are aimed at improving understanding of the underlying processes and improving outcomes for patients with COVID-19 AKI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite the long-term renoprotective effects of Metformin, a recent study on data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported a possible nephrotoxic effect, contributing to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). We investigated the association between metformin and AKI in patients admitted with the AKI-prone condition of acute infection and compared results with corresponding results of other antidiabetics. METHODS In a nationwide register-based case-control study, we identified Danish patients with type 2 diabetes hospitalized with acute infection between 2008 and 2018. Cases of AKI had an increase in plasma creatinine ≥ × 1.5 during admission, controls did not. Antidiabetics were identified up to 6 months before admission. Odds ratio (OR) of each antidiabetic was computed in separate multiple logistic regression models adjusted for relevant medication and comorbidities and results compared. RESULTS We included 46,811 patients, hereof 9454 AKIs (20%) and 2186 (4.7%) severe AKIs. Overall, 56% were males, median age (IQR) was 73 (65-81). Sixty percent received metformin, 13% sulfonylurea, 31% insulin and 8% dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i), with equal distribution between cases and controls. Metformin was associated with increased OR (CI) for AKI, 1.07 (1.02-1.12), equally to sulfonylurea, 1.10 (1.03-1.18) and DPP-4i, 1.11 (1.02-1.20), but not insulin, 0.99 (0.93-1.05). In severe AKI, results for metformin were 1.27 (1.25-1.40) but increased equivalently to other antidiabetics. CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 2 diabetes hospitalized with acute infection, metformin was not independently associated with AKI, since other antidiabetics were also significantly associated, indicating confounding by indication.

Abstract
To perform an in-depth analysis of opioid-related ADRs reported by consumers, manufacturers and healthcare professionals. Delving into the depth and breadth of reported opioid-related adverse drug reactions (ADRs) provides an opportunity to strategize better clinical management and alleviate safety concerns. Retrospective pharmacovigilance disproportionality analysis for opioid-related ADRs in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database was performed. Detailed analysis of patient (sex, age) and report (year of report; reporter: healthcare worker vs consumer) characteristics were conducted using reports from 2004 quarter 1 to 2018 quarter 4. Reporting odds ratios and confidence intervals (RORs,CI) were calculated. Of the 1 916 674 ADR reports, 300 985 indicated opioids as the primary medication. There was a surge in opioid-related ADRs reported in 2018 with six times more reports compared to 2004 and twice the number of reports compared to 2017. The largest ROR among the 20 common ADRs was depression and suicide-self-injury (ROR 3.12, 95% CI 3.01-3.22) for reports in age group ≥65 compared to age group 18 to 64, and lack of efficacy (ROR 6.80, 95% CI 6.61-7.00) for males compared to females. ADRs with the largest RORs for consumers included lack of efficacy/effect (ROR 3.37, 95% CI 3.28-3.46), administration site reactions (ROR 3.21, 95% CI 3.11-3.32), depression and suicide self-injury (ROR 2.26, 95% CI 2.14-2.38) compared to healthcare professionals. Important aspects of opioid ADR voluntary reporting included suicidal ideation in elderly patients and lack of efficacy, especially in male patients. This examination provides insight to better manage safety concerns of opioids.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) develops in 8% to 16% of hospital admissions. These patients exhibit a 4- to 10-fold increase in mortality and prolonged hospital stays. There is a dearth of information on the economics of AKI, especially in critically ill patients whose health-care costs are already high. It is important that pharmacists understand the economic impact of AKI to optimally prevent and treat AKI occurrence, thus reducing total hospital costs. Authors used MEDLINE, PubMed, and Google Scholar searches up to April 2019. Inpatient AKI affects an estimated 498 000 patients in the United States with its annual cost from $4.7 to $24.0 billion. Average patient costs of AKI in the intensive care unit are generally double than those of non-AKI patients. High AKI severity portends a higher cost. Total hospital costs in patients with AKI ranged from $29 700 in cardiac surgery patients to $80 400 in cardiogenic shock. Incremental increases of cost range from $9400 in major surgery patients and up to $81 000 in nonsurviving dialysis patients. The enormity of the clinical and economic impact of AKI should be a call to action by pharmacists to expeditiously select patient-specific therapies to prevent and treat AKI, and thus reduce its economic burden on an already fragile health-care system.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the application of various components of the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) bundle in managing patients at high-risk for AKI progression ([TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] >0.3) in the real-world setting. METHODS Patients with a [TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] test ordered between 5/23/16-2/28/18 were evaluated. We reviewed the medical record for evidence of implementation of the KDIGO bundle in response to biomarker test results. Evidence including explicit documentation in physicians' note discussing [TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] results and implicit evidence from review of dose adjusted medications, discontinued nephrotoxins and therapeutic drug monitoring. RESULTS 105 [TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] tests were conducted in 100 patients (54% female; mean age 55.4 ± 16.8; 89% in the ICU). Sixty-one patients had a value of >0.3 and 46 (75.4%) of these patients received at least one management strategy consistent with KDIGO. By contrast, nine patients (23.1%) with [TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] ≤0.3 received one or more components of the KDIGO bundle (p < .001). CONCLUSION In a real-world setting the use of urinary [TIMP2]•[IGFBP7] as an AKI risk screening tool resulted in differential application of various components of the KDIGO bundle for patient management for those with a positive test result.

Abstract
Early administration of rasburicase to enhance uric acid (UA) elimination has been adopted without robust evidence in support of its impact on clinical outcomes in tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), specifically, the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI). This was a retrospective cohort study of adult lymphoma patients at intermediate or high risk for TLS. Excluded patients had AKI or were on dialysis at hospital admission. The incidence of new AKI in the setting of TLS was described along with predictors of its development, including early rasburicase use. In 383 included patients, the incidence of new-onset AKI during hospitalization was 6%. Predictors included age, history of renal or cardiovascular disease, and UA >8 mg/dL. Rasburicase use did not significantly impact the risk of developing AKI (HR 2.3; p = .11). The UA level at the time of administration did not modify the effect of rasburicase on prevention of AKI (p = .36 for the interaction term).

Abstract
Breakpoint cluster region‐Abelson murine leukemia (BCR‐ABL) inhibitors markedly improve the prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia. However, high treatment adherence is necessary for successful treatment with BCR‐ABL inhibitors. Therefore, an adequate understanding of the adverse event profiles of BCR‐ABL inhibitors is essential. Although many adverse events are observed in trials, an accurate identification of adverse events based only on clinical trial results is difficult because of strict entry criteria or limited follow‐up durations. In particular, BCR‐ABL inhibitor‐induced impaired glucose metabolism remains controversial. Pharmacovigilance evaluations using spontaneous reporting systems are useful for analyzing drug‐related adverse events in clinical settings. Therefore, we conducted signal detection analyses for BCR‐ABL inhibitor‐induced impaired glucose metabolism by using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database. Signals for an increased reporting rate of impaired glucose metabolism were detected only for nilotinib use, whereas these signals were not detected for other BCR‐ABL inhibitors. Subgroup analyses showed a clearly increased nilotinib‐associated reporting rate of impaired glucose metabolism in male and younger patients. Although FAERS‐ and JADER‐based signal detection analyses cannot determine causality perfectly, our study suggests the effects on glucose metabolism are different between BCR‐ABL inhibitors and provides useful information for the selection of appropriate BCR‐ABL inhibitors.
