Li Q, Li G, Li D, Chen Y, Zhou F. Early and minimal changes in serum creatinine can predict prognosis in elderly patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation: A retrospective observational study. JOURNAL OF INTENSIVE MEDICINE 2024; 4:368-375. [PMID: 39035610 PMCID: PMC11258507 DOI: 10.1016/j.jointm.2023.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
Background Emerging evidence suggests that minimal acute kidney injury (stage 1 AKI) is associated with increased hospital mortality rates. However, for those who do not meet the AKI diagnostic criteria, whether a small increase in serum creatinine (SCr) levels is associated with an increased mortality rate in elderly patients is not known. Therefore, we aimed to investigate small elevations in SCr of <26.5 µmol/L within 48 h after invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) on the short-term mortality of critically ill patients in the geriatric population. Methods We conducted a retrospective, observational, multicenter cohort study enrolling consecutive elderly patients (≥75 years) who received invasive MV from January 2008 to December 2020. Recursive partitioning was used to calculate the ratio of SCr rise from baseline within 48 h after MV and divided into six groups, (1) <10%, (2) 10%-<20%, (3) 20%-<30%, (4) 30%-<40%, (5) 40%-<50%, and (6) ≥50%, where the reference interval was defined as the ratio <10% based on an analysis, which confirmed that the lowest mortality risk was found in this range. Clinical data and laboratory data were noted. Their general conditions and clinical characteristics were compared between the six groups. Prognostic survival factors were identified using Cox regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was employed for the accumulative survival rate. Results A total of 1292 patients (1171 men) with a median age of 89 (interquartile range: 85-92) with MV were suitable for further analysis. In all, 376 patients had any stage of early AKI, and 916 patients had no AKI. Among 916 non-AKI patients, 349 patients were in the ratio <10%, 291 in the 10%-<20% group, 169 in the 20%-<30% group, 68 in the 30%-<40% group, 25 in the 40%-<50% group, and 14 in the ≥50% group. The 28-day mortality rates in the six groups from the lowest (<10%) to the highest (≥50%) were 8.0%, 16.8%, 28.4%, 54.4%, 80.0%, and 85.7%, respectively. In the multivariable-adjusted analysis, patients with a ratio of 10%-<20% (hazard ratio [HR]=2.244; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.410 to 3.572; P=0.001), 20%-<30% (HR=3.822; 95% CI: 2.433 to 6.194; P <0.001), 30%-<40% (HR=10.472; 95% CI: 6.379 to 17.190; P <0.001), 40%-<50% (HR=13.887; 95% CI: 7.624 to 25.292; P <0.001), and ≥50% (HR=13.618; 95% CI: 6.832 to 27.144; P <0.001) had relatively higher 28-day mortality rates. The 90-day mortality rates in the six strata were 30.1%, 35.1%, 45.0%, 60.3%, 80.0%, and 85.7%, respectively. Significant interactions were also observed between the ratio and 90-day mortality: patients with a ratio of 10%-<20% (HR=1.322; 95% CI: 1.006 to 1.738; P=0.045), 20%-<30% (HR=1.823; 95% CI: 1.356 to 2.452; P <0.001), 30%-<40% (HR=3.751; 95% CI: 2.601 to 5.410; P <0.001), 40%-<50% (HR=5.735; 95% CI: 3.447 to 9.541; P <0.001), and ≥50% (HR=6.305; 95% CI: 3.430 to 11.588; P <0.001) had relatively higher 90-day mortality rates. Conclusions Our study suggests that a ≥ 10% SCr rise from baseline within 48 h after MV was independently associated with short-term all-cause mortality in mechanically ventilated elderly patients.

Abstract
Background In addition to damage to the lungs, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can damage multiple organs, including the kidney. Our purpose was to analyze the research hotspots and trends in COVID-19 and kidney diseases using bibliometrics to help clarify the development direction of this field. Methods We selected and extracted all relevant publications related to COVID-19 and the kidney from the Web of Science from December 1, 2019, to July 24, 2022. VOSviewer, RStudio, CiteSpace, and other software were used to visualize keywords, publishing trends, authors and their countries, and institutions in this field and perform the statistical analysis. Results A total of 645 articles published in 220 journals were included in this study. The United States and China contributed the most publications and were most active in international cooperation. In addition to COVID-19 and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), acute kidney injury (AKI), kidney transplant and mortality were the three keywords with the highest frequencies. In the initial stage of the COVID-19 outbreak, research focused on the clinical symptoms of COVID-19 and other macrocharacteristics, while in a later stage, the associations between SARS-CoV-2 infection and CKD and AKI, as well as the prognosis of patients with kidney disease or those who underwent kidney transplantation, gained more attention. The immune response and vaccines were also recent research hotspots. Conclusions This bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive overview of research on COVID-19 and kidney disease, which has received continuous, global attention. AKI, CKD, kidney transplantation, immune response and vaccines are among the hotspots in this field.

Abstract
PURPOSE The development of acute kidney injury (AKI) after the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) reduces the chance of organ recovery and survival. The purpose of this study was to examine the AKI rate and attributable mortality in ARDS patients. METHODS We performed an individual patient-data analysis including 10 multicenter randomized controlled trials conducted over 20 years. We employed a Super Learner ensemble technique, including a time-dependent analysis, to estimate the adjusted risk of AKI. We calculated the mortality attributable to AKI using an inverse probability of treatment weighting estimator integrated with the Super Learner. RESULTS There were 5148 patients included in this study. The overall incidence of AKI was 43.7% (n = 2251). The adjusted risk of AKI ranged from 38.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 35.7 to 41.9%) in ARMA, to 55.8% in ROSE (95% CI, 51.9 to 59.6%). 37.1% recovered rapidly from AKI, with a significantly lower recovery rate in recent trials (P < 0.001). The 90-day excess in mortality attributable to AKI was 15.4% (95% CI, 12.8 to 17.9%). It decreased from 25.4% in ARMA (95% CI, 18.7 to 32%), to 11.8% in FACTT (95% CI, 5.5 to 18%) and then remained rather stable over time. The 90-day overall excess in mortality attributable to acute kidney disease was 28.4% (95% CI, 25.3 to 31.5%). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of AKI appears to be stable over time in patients with ARDS enrolled in randomized trials. The development of AKI remains a significant contributing factor to mortality. These estimates are essential for designing future clinical trials for AKI prevention or treatment.

Abstract
In addition to its pulmonary effects, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has also been found to cause acute kidney injury (AKI), which has been linked to high mortality rates. In this review, we collected data from 20 clinical studies on post-COVID-19-related AKI and 97 cases of AKI associated with COVID-19 vaccination. Acute tubular injury was by far the most common finding in the kidneys of patients with COVID-19-related AKI. Among patients hospitalized for COVID-19, 34.0% developed AKI, of which 59.0%, 19.1% and 21.9% were Stages 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Though kidney disease and other adverse effects after COVID-19 vaccination overall appear rare, case reports have accumulated suggesting that COVID-19 vaccination may be associated with a risk of subsequent kidney disease. Among the patients with post-vaccination AKI, the most common pathologic findings include crescentic glomerulonephritis (29.9%), acute tubular injury (23.7%), IgA nephropathy (18.6%), antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-associated vasculitis (17.5%), minimal change disease (17.5%) and thrombotic microangiopathy (10.3%). It is important to note that crescentic glomerulonephritis appears to be more prevalent in patients who have newly diagnosed renal involvement. The proportions of patients with AKI Stages 1, 2 and 3 after COVID-19 vaccination in case reports were 30.9%, 22.7% and 46.4%, respectively. In general, clinical cases of new-onset and recurrent nephropathy with AKI after COVID-19 vaccination have a positive prognosis. In this article, we also explore the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of AKI associated with COVID-19 infection and its vaccination by describing key renal morphological and clinical features and prognostic findings.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common problem in critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Since 2012, AKI has been defined according to the KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome) guidelines. As some biomarkers are now available that can provide useful clinical information, a new definition including a new stage 1S has been proposed by an expert group of the Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI). At this stage, classic AKI criteria are not yet met, but biomarkers are already positive defining subclinical AKI. This stage 1S is associated with a worse patient outcome, regardless of the biomarker chosen. The PrevAKI and PrevAKI-Multicenter trial also showed that risk stratification with a biomarker and implementation of the KDIGO bundle (in the high-risk group) can reduce the rate of moderate and severe AKI. In the absence of a successful clinical trial, conservative management remains the primary focus of treatment. This mainly involves optimization of hemodynamics and an individualized (restrictive) fluid management. The STARRT-AKI trial has shown that there is no benefit from accelerated initiation of renal replacement therapy. However, delaying too long might be associated with potential harm, as shown in the AKIKI2 study. Prospective studies are needed to determine whether artificial intelligence will play a role in AKI in the future, helping to guide treatment decisions and improve outcomes.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) represents a life-threatening inflammatory reaction marked by refractory hypoxaemia and pulmonary oedema. Despite advancements in treatment perspectives, ARDS still carries a high mortality rate, often due to systemic inflammatory responses leading to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Indeed, the deterioration and associated mortality in patients with acute lung injury (LI)/ARDS is believed to originate alongside respiratory failure mainly from the involvement of extrapulmonary organs, a consequence of the complex interaction between initial inflammatory cascades related to the primary event and ongoing mechanical ventilation-induced injury resulting in multiple organ failure (MOF) and potentially death. Even though recent research has increasingly highlighted the role of the gastrointestinal tract in this process, the pathophysiology of gut dysfunction in patients with ARDS remains mainly underexplored. This review aims to elucidate the complex interplay between lung and gut in patients with LI/ARDS. We will examine various factors, including systemic inflammation, epithelial barrier dysfunction, the effects of mechanical ventilation (MV), hypercapnia, and gut dysbiosis. Understanding these factors and their interaction may provide valuable insights into the pathophysiology of ARDS and potential therapeutic strategies to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Growing evidence shows the complex interaction between lung and kidney in critically ill patients. The renal resistive index (RRI) is a bedside measurement of the resistance of the renal blood flow and it is correlated with kidney injury. The positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) level could affect the resistance of renal blood flow, so we assumed that RRI could help to monitoring the changes in renal hemodynamics at different PEEP levels. Our hypothesis was that the RRI at ICU admission could predict the risk of acute kidney injury in mechanical ventilated critically ill patients. METHODS We performed a prospective study including 92 patients requiring mechanical ventilation for ≥ 48 h. A RRI ≥ 0.70, was deemed as pathological. RRI was measured within 24 h from ICU admission while applying 5,10 and 15 cmH2O of PEEP in random order (PEEP trial). RESULTS Overall, RRI increased from 0.62 ± 0.09 at PEEP 5 to 0.66 ± 0.09 at PEEP 15 (p < 0.001). The mean RRI value during the PEEP trial was able to predict the occurrence of AKI with AUROC = 0.834 [95%CI 0.742-0.927]. Patients exhibiting a RRI ≥ 0.70 were 17/92(18%) at PEEP 5, 28/92(30%) at PEEP 10, 38/92(41%) at PEEP 15, respectively. Thirty-eight patients (41%) exhibited RRI ≥ 0.70 at least once during the PEEP trial. In these patients, AKI occurred in 55% of the cases, versus 13% remaining patients, p < 0.001. CONCLUSIONS RRI seems able to predict the risk of AKI in mechanical ventilated patients; further, RRI values are influenced by the PEEP level applied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In a group of children admitted to the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) receiving continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT), we aim to evaluate the data about their hemodynamic, ventilation and analgo-sedation profile in the first 24 h of treatment and possible associations with mortality. METHODS Retrospective cohort study of children admitted to the PICU of the University Hospital of Padova undergoing CKRT between January 2011 and March 2021. Data was collected at baseline (T0), after 1 h (T1) and 24 h (T24) of CKRT treatment. The differences in outcome measures were compared between these time points, and between survivors and non-survivors. RESULTS Sixty-nine patients received CKRT, of whom 38 (55%) died during the PICU stay. Overall, the vasoactive inotropic score and the adrenaline dose increased at T1 compared to T0 (p = 0.012 and p = 0.022, respectively). Compared to T0, at T24 patients showed an improvement in the following ventilatory parameters: Oxygenation Index (p = 0.005), Oxygenation Saturation Index (p = 0.013) PaO2/FiO2 ratio (p = 0.005), SpO2/FiO2 ratio (p = 0.002) and Mean Airway Pressure (p = 0.016). These improvements remained significant in survivors (p = 0.01, p = 0.027, p = 0.01 and p = 0.015, respectively) but not in non-survivors. No changes in analgo-sedative drugs have been described. CONCLUSIONS CKRT showed a significant impact on hemodynamics and ventilation in the first 24 h of treatment. We observed a significant rise in the inotropic/vasoactive support required after 1 h of treatment in the overall population, and an improvement in the ventilation parameters at 24 h only in survivors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent in critically ill COVID-19 patients and is associated with a higher mortality risk. By increasing intrathoracic pressure, positive pressure ventilation (PPV) may reduce renal perfusion pressure by reducing venous return to the heart or by increasing renal venous congestion. This study's aim was to evaluate the association between AKI and haemodynamic and ventilatory parameters in COVID-19 patients with ARDS. METHODS This is a single-centre retrospective observational study. Consecutive patients diagnosed with COVID-19 who met ARDS criteria and required invasive mechanical ventilation were enrolled. The relationship between respiratory and haemodynamic parameters influenced by PPV and AKI development was evaluated. AKI was defined according to KDIGO criteria. AKI recovery was evaluated a month after ICU admission and patients were classified as "recovered," if serum creatinine (sCr) value returned to baseline, or as having "acute kidney disease" (AKD), if criteria for AKI stage 1 or greater persisted. The 6-month all-cause mortality was collected. RESULTS A total of 144 patients were included in the analysis. AKI occurred in 69 (48%) patients and 26 (18%) required renal replacement therapy. In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, sex, hypertension, cumulative dose of furosemide, fluid balance, and plateau pressure were independently associated with AKI. Mortality at 6 months was 50% in the AKI group and 32% in the non-AKI group (p = 0.03). Among 36 patients who developed AKI and were discharged alive from the hospital, 56% had a full renal recovery after a month, while 14%, 6%, and 14% were classified as having an AKD of stage 0, 2, and 3, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort, AKI was independently associated with multiple variables, including high plateau pressure, suggesting a possible role of PPV on AKI development. Further studies are needed to clarify the role of mechanical ventilation on renal function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS), COVID-19 related infection has been increasingly recognized with a paucity of data on AKI incidence, related mortality, and the requirement of renal replacement therapy in children with MIS (MIS-C). METHODS This is a retrospective study evaluating the prevalence, severity, management and outcomes of AKI in a cohort of Egyptian children with MIS-children (MIS-C) post-COVID infection. Patients were included if they met the criteria for MIS-C based on CDC guidelines. All patients were evaluated for AKI diagnosis and staging according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. RESULTS Between March 2021 and June 2023, a total of 655 confirmed COVID-19 cases were admitted and then followed up in our hospital, of whom 138 (21%) were diagnosed with MIS-C. Fifty-one patients developed AKI associated with MIS-C post-COVID infection, 42 of whom were included in the analysis. Thirty-one patients had AKI in a formerly healthy kidney, of whom 51% (16 patients) were classified as KDIGO stage 3, 5 patients needed hemodialysis and 13 needed mechanical ventilation. Higher WBCs count, and serum ferritin on admission were associated with more severe AKI (KDIGO stage 3) (p = 0.04), while multivariate analysis showed high serum ferritin to be independent predictor of more severe AKI (p = 0.02). Two patients (2/31) died during hospital admission, while no residual renal impairment was reported at the time of discharge of patients with previously normal kidney functions. CONCLUSION More than one-third of patients with MIS-C develop AKI. Avoidance of nephrotoxic drugs, early recognition, and prompt management of AKI, including well-timed commencement of dialysis in MIS-C cases, is associated with favorable outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess prevalence and timing of acute kidney injury (AKI) development after acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and its association with mortality. DATA SOURCES Ovid MEDLINE(R), Ovid Embase, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Ovid PsycINFO database, Scopus, and Web of Science thought April 2023. STUDY SELECTION Titles and abstracts were screened independently and in duplicate to identify eligible studies. Randomized controlled trials and prospective or retrospective cohort studies reporting the development of AKI following ARDS were included. DATA EXTRACTION Two reviewers independently extracted data using a pre piloted abstraction form. We used Review Manager 5.4 software (Cochrane Library, Oxford, United Kingdom) and Open Meta software (Brown University, Providence, RI) for statistical analyses. DATA SYNTHESIS Among the 3646 studies identified and screened, 17 studies comprising 9359 ARDS patients met the eligibility criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. AKI developed in 3287 patients (40%) after the diagnosis of ARDS. The incidence of AKI at least 48 hours after ARDS diagnosis was 20% (95% CI, 0.18-0.21%). The pooled risk ratio (RR) for the hospital (or 30-d) mortality among ARDS patients who developed AKI was 1.93 (95% CI, 1.71-2.18). AKI development after ARDS was identified as an independent risk factor for mortality in ARDS patients, with a pooled odds ratio from multivariable analysis of 3.69 (95% CI, 2.24-6.09). Furthermore, two studies comparing mortality between patients with late vs. early AKI initiation after ARDS revealed higher mortality in late AKI patients with RR of 1.46 (95% CI, 1.19-1.8). However, the certainty of evidence for most outcomes was low to very low. CONCLUSIONS While our findings highlight a significant association between ARDS and subsequent development of AKI, the low to very low certainty of evidence underscores the need for cautious interpretation. This systematic review identified a significant knowledge gap, necessitating further research to establish a more definitive understanding of this relationship and its clinical implications.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is required in the Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome and is a cornerstone of its treatment. Application of PEEP increases airway pressure and modifies pleural and transpulmonary pressures according to respiratory mechanics, resulting in blood volume alteration into the pulmonary circulation. This can in turn affect right ventricular preload, afterload and function. At the opposite, PEEP may improve left ventricular function, providing no deleterious effect occurs on the right ventricle. RECENT FINDINGS This review examines the impact of PEEP on cardiac function with regards to heart-lung interactions, and describes its consequences on organs perfusion and function, including the kidney, gut, liver and the brain. PEEP in itself is not beneficious nor detrimental on end-organ hemodynamics, but its hemodynamic effects vary according to both respiratory mechanics and association with other hemodynamic variables such as central venous or mean arterial pressure. There are parallels in the means of preventing deleterious impact of PEEP on the lungs, heart, kidney, liver and central nervous system. SUMMARY The quest for optimal PEEP settings has been a prominent goal in ARDS research for the last decades. Intensive care physician must maintain a high degree of vigilance towards hemodynamic effects of PEEP on cardiac function and end-organs circulation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute kidney injury is a frequent complication of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We aim to study the evolution of kidney function in patients presenting severe ARDS and requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO). METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study, including adult patients requiring VV ECMO for ARDS. The primary outcome was the evolution of the serum creatinine level after VV ECMO initiation. Secondary outcomes were change in urine output, and urine biochemical parameters after VV ECMO initiation. RESULTS One hundred and two patients were included. VV ECMO was initiated after a median of 6 days of mechanical ventilation, mainly for ARDS caused by COVID-19 (73%). Serum creatinine level did not significantly differ after VV ECMO initiation (P = .20). VV ECMO was associated with a significant increase in daily urine output (+6.6 mL/kg/day, [3.8;9.3] P < .001), even after adjustment for potential confounding factors; with an increase in natriuresis. The increase in urine output under VV ECMO was associated with a reduced risk of receiving kidney replacement therapy (OR 0.4 [0.2;0.8], P = .026). CONCLUSIONS VV ECMO initiation in severe ARDS is associated with an increase in daily urine output and natriuresis, without change in glomerular filtration rate.

Abstract
The homeostasis and health of an organism depend on the coordinated interaction of specialized organs, which is regulated by interorgan communication networks of circulating soluble molecules and neuronal connections. Many diseases that seemingly affect one primary organ are really multiorgan diseases, with substantial secondary remote organ complications that underlie a large part of their morbidity and mortality. Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs in critically ill patients with multiorgan failure and is associated with high mortality, particularly when it occurs together with respiratory failure. Inflammatory lung lesions in patients with kidney failure that could be distinguished from pulmonary oedema due to volume overload were first reported in the 1930s, but have been largely overlooked in clinical settings. A series of studies over the past two decades have elucidated acute and chronic kidney-lung and lung-kidney interorgan communication networks involving various circulating inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, metabolites, uraemic toxins, immune cells and neuro-immune pathways. Further investigations are warranted to understand these clinical entities of high morbidity and mortality, and to develop effective treatments.

Abstract
Longitudinal modified treatment policies (LMTP) have been recently developed as a novel method to define and estimate causal parameters that depend on the natural value of treatment. LMTPs represent an important advancement in causal inference for longitudinal studies as they allow the non-parametric definition and estimation of the joint effect of multiple categorical, ordinal, or continuous treatments measured at several time points. We extend the LMTP methodology to problems in which the outcome is a time-to-event variable subject to a competing event that precludes observation of the event of interest. We present identification results and non-parametric locally efficient estimators that use flexible data-adaptive regression techniques to alleviate model misspecification bias, while retaining important asymptotic properties such as [Formula: see text]-consistency. We present an application to the estimation of the effect of the time-to-intubation on acute kidney injury amongst COVID-19 hospitalized patients, where death by other causes is taken to be the competing event.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Critical care nephrology is a subspecialty that merges critical care and nephrology in response to shared pathobiology, clinical care, and technological innovations. To date, there has been no description of the highest impact articles. Accordingly, we systematically identified high impact articles in critical care nephrology. METHODS This was a bibliometric analysis. The search was developed by a research librarian. Web of Science was searched for articles published between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2020. Articles required a minimum of 30 citations, publication in English language, and reporting of primary (or secondary) original data. Articles were screened by two reviewers for eligibility and further adjudicated by three experts. The "Top 100" articles were hierarchically ranked by adjudication, citations in the 2 years following publication and journal impact factor (IF). For each article, we extracted detailed bibliometric data. Risk of bias was assessed for randomized trials by the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. Analyses were descriptive. RESULTS The search yielded 2,805 articles. Following initial screening, 307 articles were selected for full review and adjudication. The Top 100 articles were published across 20 journals (median [IQR] IF 10.6 [8.9-56.3]), 38% were published in the 5 years ending in 2020 and 62% were open access. The agreement between adjudicators was excellent (intraclass correlation, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.84-0.99). Of the Top 100, 44% were randomized trials, 35% were observational, 14% were systematic reviews, 6% were nonrandomized interventional studies and one article was a consensus document. The risk of bias among randomized trials was low. Common subgroup themes were RRT (42%), AKI (30%), fluids/resuscitation (14%), pediatrics (10%), interventions (8%), and perioperative care (6%). The citations for the Top 100 articles were 175 (95-393) and 9 were cited >1,000 times. CONCLUSION Critical care nephrology has matured as an important subspecialty of critical care and nephrology. These high impact papers have focused largely on original studies, mostly clinical trials, within a few core themes. This list can be leveraged for curricula development, to stimulate research, and for quality assurance.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Deciphering the effect of acute kidney injury (AKI) during critical illness on long-term quality of life versus the impact of conditions that brought on critical illness is difficult. RECENT FINDINGS Reports on patient-centred outcomes such as health-related quality of life (HRQOL) have provided insight into the long-lasting impact of critical illness complicated by AKI. However, these data stem from observational studies and randomized controlled trials, which have been heterogeneous in their patient population, timing, instruments used for assessment and reporting. Recent studies have corroborated these findings including lack of effect of renal replacement therapy compared to severe AKI on outcomes and worse physical compared to cognitive dysfunction. SUMMARY In adults, more deficits in physical than mental health domains are found in survivors of AKI in critical care, whereas memory deficits and learning impairments have been noted in children. Further study is needed to understand and develop interventions that preserve or enhance the quality of life for individual patients who survive AKI following critical illness, across all ages.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute kidney injury is a frequent complication in critically ill patients with and without COVID-19. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of, and risk factors for, acute kidney injury and its effect on clinical outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients in Tyrol, Austria. METHODS This multicenter prospective registry study included adult patients with a SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by polymerase chain reaction, who were treated in one of the 12 dedicated intensive care units during the COVID-19 pandemic from February 2020 until May 2022. RESULTS In total, 1042 patients were included during the study period. The median age of the overall cohort was 66 years. Of the included patients, 267 (26%) developed acute kidney injury during their intensive care unit stay. In total, 12.3% (n = 126) required renal replacement therapy with a median duration of 9 (IQR 3-18) days. In patients with acute kidney injury the rate of invasive mechanical ventilation was significantly higher with 85% (n = 227) compared to 41% (n = 312) in the no acute kidney injury group (p < 0.001). The most important risk factors for acute kidney injury were invasive mechanical ventilation (OR = 4.19, p < 0.001), vasopressor use (OR = 3.17, p < 0.001) and chronic kidney disease (OR = 2.30, p < 0.001) in a multivariable logistic regression analysis. Hospital and intensive care unit mortality were significantly higher in patients with acute kidney injury compared to patients without acute kidney injury (Hospital mortality: 52.1% vs. 17.2%, p < 0.001, ICU-mortality: 47.2% vs. 14.7%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION As in non-COVID-19 patients, acute kidney injury is clearly associated with increased mortality in critically ill COVID-19 patients. Among known risk factors, invasive mechanical ventilation has been identified as an independent and strong predictor of acute kidney injury.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A small percentage of patients infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV‑2) showed severe respiratory deterioration requiring treatment with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). During the pandemic surges availability of ECMO devices was limited and resources had to be used wisely. The aim of this analysis was to determine the incidence and outcome of venovenous (VV) ECMO patients in Tyrol, when criteria based on the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) guidelines for VV-ECMO initiation were established. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of the Tyrol-CoV-ICU-Reg, which includes all patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Tyrol. Of the 13 participating departments, VV-ECMO was performed at 4 units at the University Hospital Innsbruck. RESULTS Overall, 37 (3.4%) of 1101 patients were treated with VV-ECMO during their ICU stay. The hospital mortality rate was approximately 40% (n = 15). Multiorgan failure due to sepsis was the most common cause of death. No significant difference in survival rates between newly initiated and experienced centers was observed. The median survival time of nonsurvivors was 27 days (interquartile range, IQR: 22-36 days) after initiation of VV-ECMO. Acute kidney injury meeting the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria occurred in 48.6%. Renal replacement therapy (RRT) was initiated in 12 (32.4%) patients after a median of 18 days (IQR: 1-26 days) after VV-ECMO start. The median length of ICU and hospital stays were 38 days (IQR: 30-55 days) and 50 days (IQR: 37-83 days), respectively. DISCUSSION Despite a rapidly increased demand and the resulting requirement to initiate an additional ECMO center, we could demonstrate that a structured approach with interdisciplinary collaboration resulted in favorable survival rates similar to multinational reports.

Abstract
During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, acute kidney injury (AKI) was a common sequela of COVID-19 infection and predicted disease severity and mortality. Extracorporeal blood purification techniques involving blood filtration devices are an emerging treatment for AKI in the setting of severe COVID-19 infections. In this review, we discuss potential mechanisms for the development of AKI in COVID-19 patients as well as the various available blood filtration devices and the role they may play in managing the AKI in COVID-19 patients. A total of seven blood filters currently available were compared based on their potential in treating AKI in COVID-19 patients. Blood filtration devices show potential as an emerging treatment modality for COVID-19-induced AKI, but further clinical trials are necessary before their widespread adoption and usage.

Abstract
Renal involvement and kidney injury are common in COVID-19 patients, and the symptoms are more severe if the patient already has renal impairment. Renal involvement in COVID-19 is multifactorial, and the renal tubule is mainly affected, along with podocyte injury during SARS-CoV-2 infection. Inflammation, complement activation, hypercoagulation, and crosstalk between the kidney and lungs, brain, and heart are contributory factors. Kidney injury during the acute phase, termed acute kidney injury (AKI), may proceed to chronic kidney disease if the patient is discharged with renal impairment. Both AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD) increase mortality in COVID-19 patients. Further, COVID-19 infection in patients suffering from CKD is more severe and increases the mortality rate. Thus, it is important to address both categories of patients, either developing AKI or CKD after COVID-19 or previously having CKD, with proper management and treatment. This review discusses the pathophysiology involved in AKI and CKD in COVID-19 infection, followed by management and treatment of AKI and CKD. This is followed by a discussion of the importance of screening and treatment of CKD patients infected with COVID-19 and future perspectives to improve treatment in such patients.

A prospective observational study to correlate lung ultrasound with clinical severity and prognosis score in patients with primary pulmonary pathology on invasive ventilatory support. Int J Crit Illn Inj Sci 2023; 13:151-158. [PMID: 38292395 PMCID: PMC10824203 DOI: 10.4103/ijciis.ijciis_31_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a known imaging modality employed for monitoring patients in an intensive care unit. This study evaluates, LUS in assessing disease severity and prognosis, by correlating its score with the three commonly used clinical severity scoring systems (CSSS), namely, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II score, and simplified acute physiology score (SAPS) II. Methods This single-center prospective observational study included 54 adult patients of primary lung disease-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), on invasive ventilation. The primary objective was to correlate LUS score with SOFA score. Secondary objectives were to correlate LUS score with APACHE II and SAPS II scores. LUS score was also correlated with the estimated mortality derived from the above-mentioned scores. A subgroup analysis on COVID-19-positive cases was also carried out. All scores were calculated on the initiation of mechanical ventilation, daily for 7 days or mortality, whichever was earlier. Results A significant positive correlation (P < 0.001) was found between LUS and all three severity scores, as well as their corresponding estimated mortality percentages, for all days of the study period, in both non-COVID-19 ARDS patients and in COVID-19 patients. The merit of all four scores in differentiating between the survivor and mortality group for the duration of study also showed significant (P < 0.05) to very significant (P < 0.001) results. Conclusion Point-of-care LUS in conjunction with CSSS is a reliable tool for assessing the severity and progression of primary lung disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on renal complications in patients with acute fulminant myocarditis (AFM) receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support in China. To evaluate the impact of renal complications on outcomes in adult patients with AFM supported with VA-ECMO. METHODS Data were extracted from Chinese Society of ExtraCorporeal Life Support (CSECLS) Registry database. Adult patients who were diagnosed with AFM receiving VA-ECMO support in the database were included. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality in patients with AFM supported with VA-ECMO. Logistic regression model was used to examine the impact of renal complications on 30-day mortality by adjusting confounders. RESULTS A total of 202 patients were included. The median age was 38 years (IQR 29-48) and males (n = 103) represented 51.0% of the total accounted patients. The median ECMO duration was 142.9 h (IQR 112.1-188.8 h). 178 (88.1%) patients weaned from ECMO and 156 (71.9%) patients survived. 94(46.5%) patients developed renal complications while on ECMO course. Patients with renal complications had higher 30-day mortality (40.7% (37 of 94) vs 8.3% (9 of 108), P < 0.001) compared with those without. The development of renal complications was related to a 3.12-fold increase risk of 30-day mortality (adjusted OR 3.120, 95%CI 1.002-6.577, P = 0.049). Increasing age (adjusted OR1.025, 95% CI 1.008-1.298, P = 0.040) and higher SOFA score (adjusted OR 1.162, 95%CI 1.012-1.334, P = 0.034) were independent risk factors of renal complications. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrated that patients with AFM receiving VA-ECMO at high risk of developing renal complications. Advancing age and higher SOFA score was associated with increased risk of developing renal complications. The onset of renal complications was significantly associated with 30-day mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The incidence of thrombotic events and acute kidney injury is high in critically ill patients with COVID-19. We aimed to evaluate and compare the coagulation profiles of patients with COVID-19 developing acute kidney injury versus those who did not, during their intensive care unit stay. METHODS Conventional coagulation and platelet function tests, fibrinolysis, endogenous inhibitors of coagulation tests, and rotational thromboelastometry were conducted on days 0, 1, 3, 7, and 14 following intensive care unit admission. RESULTS Out of 30 patients included, 13 (43.4%) met the criteria for acute kidney injury. Comparing both groups, patients with acute kidney injury were older: 73 (60-84) versus 54 (47-64) years, p=0.027, and had a lower baseline glomerular filtration rate: 70 (51-81) versus 93 (83-106) mL/min/1.73m2, p=0.004. On day 1, D-dimer and fibrinogen levels were elevated but similar between groups: 1780 (1319-5517) versus 1794 (726-2324) ng/mL, p=0.145 and 608 (550-700) versus 642 (469-722) g/dL, p=0.95, respectively. Rotational thromboelastometry data were also similar between groups. However, antithrombin activity and protein C levels were lower in patients who developed acute kidney injury: 82 (75-92) versus 98 (90-116), p=0.028 and 70 (52-82) versus 88 (78-101) µ/mL, p=0.038, respectively. Mean protein C levels were lower in the group with acute kidney injury across multiple time points during their stay in the intensive care unit. CONCLUSION Critically ill patients experiencing acute kidney injury exhibited lower endogenous anticoagulant levels. Further studies are needed to understand the role of natural anticoagulants in the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury within this population.

Abstract
Background Extreme body mass index (BMI) is an influential pathophysiological risk factor for serious illnesses following lower respiratory tract infection. The purpose of the current study was to examine how the BMI of Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) patients affects their prognosis. Methods Two hundred patients with COVID-19 admitted to Al-Azhar, Qena, Aswan, and Sohag University hospitals in Egypt were included and categorized into four groups according to their BMI. The diagnosis was made according to a real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) positive result for the SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid in swabs from upper respiratory tract. A detailed history, clinical examination, and outcomes (disease severity and complications, hospital stay, ICU admission, mortality) were recorded for all patients. SPSS version 24 software was used for data analysis. Results Average age of participants (19-90 years old), 92 (46%) males and 108 females (54%). ICU admission was significantly higher among underweight patients (75%) and obese patients (78.6%). The majority of underweight (62.5%) and obese (57.1%) patients had critical disease. Invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) is frequently used in underweight (50%) and obese patients (42.9%) patients. Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), cardiac, neurological, and hematological complications, and incidence of myalgia and bed sores were most frequent among obese and overweight patients. Acute kidney injury was significantly higher among underweight patients (37.5%) and obese patients (28.6%) than among other classes (p=0.004). Frequency of endocrine complications was significantly higher in underweight patients than that in other classes (p=0.01). The majority of underweight (75%) and obese patients (50%) deteriorated and died, whereas the majority of normal-weight patients (90.3%) and overweight patients (75.8%) improved and were discharged (p< 0.001). Conclusion Body mass index is a major contributing factor to the outcome of patients with COVID-19, and patients with extreme of body mass index were associated with the worst prognosis.

Clinical Features and Outcomes of Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Clin Med 2023; 12:5127. [PMID: 37568528 PMCID: PMC10419665 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12155127] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND An alarming number of COVID-19 patients, especially in severe cases, have developed acute kidney injury (AKI). AIM The study aimed to assess the frequency, risk factors, and impact of AKI on mortality in critically ill COVID-19 patients. METHODS The study was a retrospective observational study conducted in the MICU. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors for AKI and clinical outcomes. RESULTS During the study period, 465 consecutive COVID-19 patients were admitted to the MICU. The patients' characteristics were median age, 64 [54-71] years; median SAPSII, 31 [24-38]; and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), 244 (52.5%). The overall ICU mortality rate was 49%. Two hundred twenty-nine (49.2%) patients developed AKI. The factors independently associated with AKI were positive fluid balance (OR, 2.78; 95%CI [1.88-4.11]; p < 0.001), right heart failure (OR, 2.15; 95%CI [1.25-3.67]; p = 0.005), and IMV use (OR, 1.55; 95%CI [1.01-2.40]; p = 0.044). Among the AKI patients, multivariate analysis identified the following factors as independently associated with ICU mortality: age (OR, 1.05; 95%CI [1.02-1.09]; p = 0.012), IMV use (OR, 48.23; 95%CI [18.05-128.89]; p < 0.001), and septic shock (OR, 3.65; 95%CI [1.32-10.10]; p = 0.012). CONCLUSION The present study revealed a high proportion of AKI among critically ill COVID-19 patients. This complication seems to be linked to a severe cardiopulmonary interaction and fluid balance management, thus accounting for a poor outcome.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is a common complication of COVID-19, frequently fuelled by a complex interplay of factors. These include tubular injury and three primary drivers of cardiocirculatory instability: heart-lung interaction abnormalities, myocardial damage, and disturbances in fluid balance. Further complicating this dynamic, renal vulnerability to a "second-hit" injury, like a SARS-CoV-2 infection, is heightened by advanced age, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes mellitus. Moreover, the influence of chronic treatment protocols, which may constrain the compensatory intrarenal hemodynamic mechanisms, warrants equal consideration. COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury not only escalates mortality rates but also significantly affects long-term kidney function recovery, particularly in severe instances. Thus, the imperative lies in developing and applying therapeutic strategies capable of warding off acute kidney injury and decelerating the transition into chronic kidney disease after an acute event. This narrative review aims to proffer a flexible diagnostic and therapeutic strategy that recognizes the multi-faceted nature of COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury in critically ill patients and underlines the crucial role of a tailored, overarching hemodynamic and respiratory framework in managing this complex clinical condition.

Abstract
Kidney and lung injury are closely inter-related during acute respiratory illness, but the molecular risk factors that these organ injuries share are not well defined. OBJECTIVES We identified plasma biomarkers associated with severe acute kidney injury (AKI) during acute respiratory illness, and compared them to biomarkers associated with severe acute respiratory failure (ARF). DESIGN SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS Prospective observational cohort study enrolling March 2020 through May 2021, at three hospitals in a large academic health system. We analyzed 301 patients admitted to an ICU with acute respiratory illness. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Outcomes were ascertained between ICU admission and day 14, and included: 1) severe AKI, defined as doubling of serum creatinine or new dialysis and 2) severe ARF, which included new or persistent need for high-flow oxygen or mechanical ventilation. We measured biomarkers of immune response and endothelial function, pathways related to adverse kidney and lung outcomes, in plasma collected within 24 hours of ICU admission. Severe AKI occurred in 48 (16%), severe ARF occurred in 147 (49%), and 40 (13%) patients experienced both. Two-fold higher concentrations of soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (sTNFR-1) (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 1.56; 95% CI, 1.24-1.96) and soluble triggering receptor on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) (aRR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.42-2.41), biomarkers of innate immune activation, were associated with higher risk for severe AKI after adjustment for age, sex, COVID-19, and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-III. These biomarkers were not significantly associated with severe ARF. Soluble programmed cell death receptor-1 (sPDL-1), a checkpoint pathway molecule, as well as soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and soluble vascular adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), molecules involved with endothelial-vascular leukocyte adhesion, were associated with both severe AKI and ARF. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE sTNFR-1 and sTREM-1 were linked strongly to severe AKI during respiratory illness, while sPDL-1, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 were associated with both severe AKI and ARF. These biomarker signatures may shed light on pathophysiology of lung-kidney interactions, and inform precision medicine strategies for identifying patients at high risk for these organ injuries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Given the complex interrelatedness of fluid overload (FO), creatinine, acute kidney injury (AKI), and clinical outcomes, the association of AKI with poor outcomes in critically ill children may be underestimated due to definitions used. We aimed to disentangle these temporal relationships in a large cohort of children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Quaternary care PICU. PATIENTS Seven hundred twenty intubated children with ARDS between 2011 and 2019. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Daily fluid balance, urine output (UOP), and creatinine for days 1-7 of ARDS were retrospectively abstracted. A subset of patients had angiopoietin 2 (ANGPT2) quantified on days 1, 3, and 7. Patients were classified as AKI by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage 2/3 then grouped by timing of AKI onset (early if days 1-3 of ARDS, late if days 4-7 of ARDS, persistent if both) for comparison of PICU mortality and ventilator-free days (VFDs). A final category of "Cryptic AKI" was used to identify subjects who met KDIGO stage 2/3 criteria only when creatinine was adjusted for FO. Outcomes were compared between those who had Cryptic AKI identified by FO-adjusted creatinine versus those who had no AKI. Conventionally defined AKI occurred in 26% of patients (early 10%, late 3%, persistent 13%). AKI was associated with higher mortality and fewer VFDs, with no differences according to timing of onset. The Cryptic AKI group (6% of those labeled no AKI) had higher mortality and fewer VFDs than patients who did not meet AKI with FO-adjusted creatinine. FO, FO-adjusted creatinine, and ANGPT2 increased 1 day prior to meeting AKI criteria in the late AKI group. CONCLUSIONS AKI was associated with higher mortality and fewer VFDs in pediatric ARDS, irrespective of timing. FO-adjusted creatinine captures a group of patients with Cryptic AKI with outcomes approaching those who meet AKI by traditional criteria. Increases in FO, FO-adjusted creatinine, and ANGPT2 occur prior to meeting conventional AKI criteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common among critically ill children and these children are at risk of developing acute kidney disease (AKD). METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted on children aged > 1 month to ≤ 18 years old admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) of Hong Kong Children's Hospital from 6/2020 to 6/2021. The incidences and risk factors of both AKI and AKD were determined. RESULTS There were 254 eligible admissions (58.3% in males, with a median age of 4.9 [9.7] years). The overall AKI incidence was 41.7% and 56% of children who remained hospitalized in the pediatric ICU for ≥ 7 days after acquiring AKI developed AKD. Cardiac surgery, bone marrow transplantation and requirement of inotropes were risk factors for both AKI and AKD. The requirement of non-invasive ventilation [relative risk (RR): 2.625 (1.361, 5.064)], total medication dose [RR 1.006 (1.002, 1.010)] and maximal medication intensity [RR 1.154 (1.038, 1.283)] were additional determinants of AKI. Factors indicating more severe AKI and AKI progression were predictive of AKD development. The overall mortality in the pediatric ICU was 3.1%. AKI was significantly associated with mortality (p < 0.001), longer length of hospitalization in the pediatric ICU (p < 0.001) and hospital stay (p < 0.001). AKD was associated with a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate at discharge from the pediatric ICU (p = 0.036). CONCLUSION AKI and AKD were common among critically ill children, and were associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Few modifiable risk factors, especially those related to nephrotoxic medication exposure, were associated with AKI development and AKD progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) complicates a substantial part of patients with COVID-19. Direct viral penetration of renal cells through the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 receptor, and indirect damage by the aberrant inflammatory response characteristic of COVID-19 are likely mechanisms. Nevertheless, other common respiratory viruses such as Influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are also associated with AKI. METHODS We retrospectively compared the incidence, risk factors and outcomes of AKI among patients who were admitted to a tertiary hospital because of infection with COVID-19, influenza (A + B) or RSV. RESULTS We collected data of 2593 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, 2041 patients with influenza and 429 with RSV. Patients affected by RSV were older, had more comorbidities and presented with higher rates of AKI at admission and within 7 days (11.7% vs. 13.3% vs. 18% for COVID-19, influenza and RSV, respectively p = 0.001). Nevertheless, patients hospitalized with COVID-19 had higher mortality (18% with COVID-19 vs. 8.6% and 13.5% for influenza and RSV, respectively P < 0.001) and higher need of mechanical ventilation (12.4% vs. 6.5% vs.8.2% for COVID-19, influenza and RSV, respectively, P = 0.002). High ferritin levels and low oxygen saturation were independent risk factors for severe AKI only in the COVID-19 group. AKI in the first 48 h of admission and in the first 7 days of hospitalization were strong independent risk factors for adverse outcome in all groups. CONCLUSION Despite many reports of direct kidney injury by SARS-COV-2, AKI was less in patients with COVID-19 compared to influenza and RSV patients. AKI was a prognostic marker for adverse outcome across all viruses.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a major cause of mortality and morbidity, and almost half of these patients are admitted to the intensive care unit. Of those, 10% develop acute kidney injury (AKI) and 2% even need kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Although clinical trials in patients with TBI who have AKI are lacking, some general principles in this population may apply. The present review is an overview on the epidemiology and pathophysiology of AKI in patients with TBI admitted to the intensive care unit who are at risk for or who have developed AKI. A cornerstone in severe TBI management is preventing secondary brain damage, in which reducing the intracranial pressure (ICP) and optimizing the cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) remain important therapeutic targets. To treat episodes of elevated ICP, osmolar agents such as mannitol and hypertonic saline are frequently administered. Although we are currently awaiting the results of a prospective randomized controlled trial that compares both agents, it is important to realize that both agents have been associated with an increased risk of developing AKI which is probably higher for mannitol compared with hypertonic saline. For the brain, as well as for the kidney, targeting an adequate perfusion pressure is important. Hemodynamic management based on the combined use of intravascular fluids and vasopressors is ideally guided by hemodynamic monitoring. Hypotonic albumin or crystalloid resuscitation solutions may increase the risk of brain edema, and saline-based solutions are frequently used but have a risk of hyperchloremia, which might jeopardize kidney function. In patients at risk, frequent assessment of serum chloride might be advised. Maintenance of an adequate CPP involves the optimization of circulating blood volume, often combined with vasopressor agents. Whether individualized CPP targets based on cerebrovascular autoregulation monitoring are beneficial need to be further investigated. Interestingly, such individualized perfusion targets are also under investigation in patients as a strategy to mitigate the risk for AKI in patients with chronic hypertension. In the small proportion of patients with TBI who need KRT, continuous techniques are advised based on pathophysiology and expert opinion. The need for KRT is associated with a higher risk of intracranial hypertension, especially if osmolar clearance occurs fast, which can even occur in continuous techniques. Precise ICP and CPP monitoring is mandatory, especially at the initiation of KRT.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Study of organ crosstalk in critical illness has uncovered complex biological communication between different organ systems, but the role of microbiota in organ crosstalk has received limited attention. We highlight the emerging understanding of the gut-lung axis, and how the largest biomass of the human body in the gut may affect lung physiology in critical illness. RECENT FINDINGS Disruption of healthy gut microbial communities and replacement by disease-promoting pathogens (pathobiome) generates a maladaptive transmitter of messages from the gut to the lungs, connected via the portal venous and the mesenteric lymphatic systems. Gut barrier impairment allows for microbial translocation (living organisms or cellular fragments) to the lungs. Host-microbiota interactions in the gut mucosa can also impact lung physiology through microbial metabolite secretion or host-derived messengers (hormones, cytokines or immune cells). Clinical examples like the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia by selective decontamination of the digestive tract show that the gut-lung axis can be manipulated therapeutically. SUMMARY A growing body of evidence supports the pathophysiological relevance of the gut-lung axis, yet we are only at the brink of understanding the therapeutic and prognostic relevance of the gut microbiome, metabolites and host-microbe interactions in critical illness.

Lin MY, Chang YM, Li CC, Chao WC. Explainable Machine Learning to Predict Successful Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation in Critically Ill Patients Requiring Hemodialysis. Healthcare (Basel) 2023; 11:healthcare11060910. [PMID: 36981566 PMCID: PMC10048210 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare11060910] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 03/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Lungs and kidneys are two vital and frequently injured organs among critically ill patients. In this study, we attempt to develop a weaning prediction model for patients with both respiratory and renal failure using an explainable machine learning (XML) approach. We used the eICU collaborative research database, which contained data from 335 ICUs across the United States. Four ML models, including XGBoost, GBM, AdaBoost, and RF, were used, with weaning prediction and feature windows, both at 48 h. The model's explanations were presented at the domain, feature, and individual levels by leveraging various techniques, including cumulative feature importance, the partial dependence plot (PDP), the Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) plot, and local explanation with the local interpretable model-agnostic explanations (LIME). We enrolled 1789 critically ill ventilated patients requiring hemodialysis, and 42.8% (765/1789) of them were weaned successfully from mechanical ventilation. The accuracies in XGBoost and GBM were better than those in the other models. The discriminative characteristics of six key features used to predict weaning were demonstrated through the application of the SHAP and PDP plots. By utilizing LIME, we were able to provide an explanation of the predicted probabilities and the associated reasoning for successful weaning on an individual level. In conclusion, we used an XML approach to establish a weaning prediction model in critically ill ventilated patients requiring hemodialysis.

[PMID: 36934196 DOI: 10.1007/s10157-023-02339-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/20/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is paucity of information regarding the etiology and outcomes of Acute Kidney Disease (AKD) in children. METHODS The objectives of this cohort study were to evaluate the etiology and outcomes of AKD; and analyze predictors of kidney survival (defined as free of CKD 2, 3a, 3b, 4 or 5). Patients aged 1 month to 18 years who developed AKD over a 4-year-period (January 2018-December 2021) were enrolled. Survivors were followed-up at the pediatric nephrology clinic, and screened for residual kidney injury. RESULTS Among 5710 children who developed AKI, 200 who developed AKD were enrolled. The median (IQR) eGFR was 17.03 (10.98, 28) mL/min/1.73 m2. Acute glomerulonephritis, acute tubular necrosis (ATN), hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), sepsis-associated AKD, and snake envenomation comprised of 69 (34.5%), 39 (19.5%), 24 (12%), 23 (11.5%) and 15 (7.5%) of the patients respectively. Overall, 88 (44%) children required kidney replacement therapy (KRT). There were 37 (18.5%) deaths within the AKD period. At a follow-up of 90 days, 32 (16%) progressed to chronic kidney disease stage-G2 or greater. At a median (IQR) follow-up of 24 (6, 36.5) months (n = 154), 27 (17.5%) had subnormal eGFR, and 20 (12.9%) had persistent proteinuria and/or hypertension. Requirement of KRT predicted kidney survival (free of CKD 2, 3a, 3b, 4 or 5) in AKD (HR 6.7, 95% CI 1.2, 46.4) (p 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Acute glomerulonephritis, ATN, HUS, sepsis-associated AKD and snake envenomation were common causes of AKD. Mortality in AKD was 18.5%, and 16% progressed to CKD-G2 or greater at 90-day follow-up.

Abstract
Over three years have passed since the COVID-19 pandemic started. The dangerousness and impact of COVID-19 should definitely not be ignored or underestimated. Other than the symptoms of acute infection, the long-term symptoms associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, which are referred to here as "sequelae of long COVID (LC)", are also a conspicuous global public health concern. Although such sequelae were well-documented, the understanding of and insights regarding LC-related sequelae remain inadequate due to the limitations of previous studies (the follow-up, methodological flaws, heterogeneity among studies, etc.). Notably, robust evidence regarding diagnosis and treatment of certain LC sequelae remain insufficient and has been a stumbling block to better management of these patients. This awkward situation motivated us to conduct this review. Here, we comprehensively reviewed the updated information, particularly focusing on clinical issues. We attempt to provide the latest information regarding LC-related sequelae by systematically reviewing the involvement of main organ systems. We also propose paths for future exploration based on available knowledge and the authors' clinical experience. We believe that these take-home messages will be helpful to gain insights into LC and ultimately benefit clinical practice in treating LC-related sequelae.

Abstract
Background: Emergent endotracheal intubations (ETI) in pulmonary hypertension (PH) patients are associated with increased mortality. Post-intubation interventions that could increase survivability in this population have not been explored. We evaluate early clinical characteristics and complications following emergent endotracheal intubation and seek predictors of adverse outcomes during this post-intubation period. Methods: Retrospective cohort analysis of adult patients with groups 1 and 3 PH who underwent emergent intubation between 2005-2021 in medical and liver transplant ICUs at a tertiary medical center. PH patients were compared to non-PH patients, matched by Charlson Comorbidity Index. Primary outcomes were 24-h post-intubation and inpatient mortalities. Various 24-h post-intubation secondary outcomes were compared between PH and control cohorts. Results: We identified 48 PH and 110 non-PH patients. Pulmonary hypertension was not associated with increased 24-h mortality (OR 1.32, 95%CI 0.35-4.94, P = .18), but was associated with inpatient mortality (OR 4.03, 95%CI 1.29-12.5, P = .016) after intubation. Within 24 h post-intubation, PH patients experienced more frequent acute kidney injury (43.5% vs. 19.8%, P = .006) and required higher norepinephrine dosing equivalents (6.90 [0.13-10.6] mcg/kg/min, vs. 0.20 [0.10-2.03] mcg/kg/min, P = .037). Additionally, the median P/F ratio (PaO2/FiO2) was lower in PH patients (96.3 [58.9-201] vs. 233 [146-346] in non-PH, P = .001). Finally, a post-intubation increase in PaCO2 was associated with mortality in the PH cohort (post-intubation change in PaCO2 +5.14 ± 16.1 in non-survivors vs. -18.7 ± 28.0 in survivors, P = .007). Conclusions: Pulmonary hypertension was associated with worse outcomes after emergent endotracheal intubation than similar patients without PH. More importantly, our data suggest that the first 24 hours following intubation in the PH group represent a particularly vulnerable period that may determine long-term outcomes. Early post-intubation interventions may be key to improving survival in this population.

Abstract
The newly discovered severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) has turned into a potentially fatal pandemic illness. Numerous acute kidney injury (AKI) cases have been reported, although diffuse alveolar destruction and acute respiratory failure are the major symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The AKI, often known as a sudden loss of kidney function, carries a greater risk of mortality and morbidity. AKI was the second most frequent cause of death after acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). While most patients with COVID-19 have moderate symptoms, some have severe symptoms, such as septic shock and ARDS. Also, it has been proven that some patients have severe symptoms, such as the failure of several organs. The kidneys are often affected either directly or indirectly. The major signs of kidney involvement are proteinuria and AKI. It is hypothesized that multiple mechanisms contribute to kidney injury in COVID-19. Direct infection of podocytes and proximal tubular cells in the kidneys may lead to acute tubular necrosis and collapsing glomerulopathy. SARS-CoV2 may also trigger a cascade of immunological responses that lead to AKI, including cytokine storm (CS), macrophage activation syndrome, and Toll-like receptor type-4 activation (TLR-4). Other proposed processes of AKI include interactions between organs, endothelial failure, hypercoagulability, rhabdomyolysis, and sepsis. Furthermore, ischemic damage to the kidney might result from the decreased oxygen supply. This article focuses on kidney injury’s epidemiology, etiology, and pathophysiological processes. Specifically, it focuses on the CS and the role of TLR-4 in this process. To effectively manage and treat acute kidney damage and AKI in COVID-19, it is crucial to understand the underlying molecular pathways and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
Extracorporeal ultrafiltration is an attractive alternative to diuretics for removing excess plasma water in critically ill patients suffering from fluid overload. In continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), ultrafiltration occurs in isolated form (SCUF) or supplemented by replacement fluid infusion (CVVH) and the net fluid removal rate is controlled by peristaltic pumps. In this work, a pump-free solution for regulating the ultrafiltration rate in CRRT applications is presented.
Methods
The system consists of a motorized clamp on the ultrafiltration line, whose intermittent opening is modulated with a closed-loop control system based on monitoring of ultrafiltrate collected and any replacement fluid infused. The system was tested on two platforms for SCUF and CVVH, with “low-flux” and “high-flux” hemofilter, with various ultrafiltration setpoints and patient net weight loss targets.
Results
In all configurations the set ultrafiltration rate was achieved with a maximum error of 5% and the values recorded were kept within ± 100 ml/h with respect to the setpoint, as recommended by international standard IEC 60601-2-16. The net fluid removal trend was highly correlated with that expected (95%<R2<99%) and the weight loss target was reached in the expected time. For low ultrafiltration rates (60-150 ml/h) the system accuracy was better with the “low-flux” hemofilter.
Conclusion
The developed clamp system represents a valid alternative to state-of-the-art solutions with peristaltic pumps in terms of performance, with potential usability advantages. The compliance with safety requirements given by international standard IEC 60601-2-16 is a prerequisite for clinical use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between the lung and kidney investigated in animal and clinical models has demonstrated substantial crosstalk. We aimed to evaluate the association between single vs. concurrent AKI and ARDS and its impact on patient outcomes. Secondly, we aimed to assess whether the order of appearance of these pathologies affected patient outcomes in patients with both diseases. METHODS This single-center retrospective cohort study included adult patients admitted to the ICU from January 1, 2007 through May 1, 2018 (n = 76,988). Baseline characteristics and outcomes were compared among patients without ARDS or AKI and those with one or both ARDS and AKI. We also assessed outcomes across the order of appearance of these diseases among patients with both AKI and ARDS. RESULTS We enrolled 76,988 unique patients in the final analysis: 47,043 patients with neither AKI nor ARDS, 491 patients with ARDS alone, 27,928 patients with AKI alone, and 1,526 patients with both ARDS and AKI. Patients with both ARDS and AKI had higher ICU (21.2%) and hospital (28.4%) mortality compared to patients with ARDS alone (9.0% ICU mortality, 14.0% hospital mortality) or AKI alone (4.4% ICU mortality, 8.4% hospital mortality) (p < 0.001). These findings remained unchanged after adjusting for illness severity and comorbidities. Of the 1136 patients with both AKI and ARDS, 136 (12%) developed AKI first, 303 (27%) ARDS first, and 697 (61%) had simultaneous diseases. Patients who developed ARDS after AKI had significantly increased ICU (29.4%) and hospital (36.8%) mortality compared to patients who developed AKI after ARDS (13.9% ICU mortality, 21.5% hospital mortality) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The combination of AKI and ARDS leads to worse outcomes, including longer hospital and ICU lengths of stay, higher mortality, longer kidney replacement therapy, and longer ventilation requirements than in patients with AKI or ARDS alone. Among patients with both diagnoses, those who developed ARDS after AKI had the highest mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and severe complication of both COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and non-COVID-19-related ARDS. The COVID-19 Critical Care Consortium (CCCC) has generated a global data set on the demographics, management and outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients. The LUNG-SAFE study was an international prospective cohort study of patients with severe respiratory failure, including ARDS, which pre-dated the pandemic. METHODS The incidence, demographic profile, management and outcomes of early AKI in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation for COVID-19-related ARDS were described and compared with AKI in a non-COVID-19-related ARDS cohort. RESULTS Of 18,964 patients in the CCCC data set, 1699 patients with COVID-19-related ARDS required invasive ventilation and had relevant outcome data. Of these, 110 (6.5%) had stage 1, 94 (5.5%) had stage 2, 151 (8.9%) had stage 3 AKI, while 1214 (79.1%) had no AKI within 48 h of initiating invasive mechanical ventilation. Patients developing AKI were older and more likely to have hypertension or chronic cardiac disease. There were geo-economic differences in the incidence of AKI, with lower incidence of stage 3 AKI in European high-income countries and a higher incidence in patients from middle-income countries. Both 28-day and 90-day mortality risk was increased for patients with stage 2 (HR 2.00, p < 0.001) and stage 3 AKI (HR 1.95, p < 0.001). Compared to non-COVID-19 ARDS, the incidence of shock was reduced with lower cardiovascular SOFA score across all patient groups, while hospital mortality was worse in all groups [no AKI (30 vs 50%), Stage 1 (38 vs 58%), Stage 2 (56 vs 74%), and Stage 3 (52 vs 72%), p < 0.001]. The time profile of onset of AKI also differed, with 56% of all AKI occurring in the first 48 h in patients with COVID-19 ARDS compared to 89% in the non-COVID-19 ARDS population. CONCLUSION AKI is a common and serious complication of COVID-19, with a high mortality rate, which differs by geo-economic location. Important differences exist in the profile of AKI in COVID-19 versus non-COVID-19 ARDS in terms of their haemodynamic profile, time of onset and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can cause damage to multiple organ, not only to the lungs, but also to the kidneys. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can cause acute and chronic kidney disease through direct viral infection, indirect injury, and vaccination-related injury. Like lung injury, kidney injury is also an important aspect affecting the severity and prognosis of SARS-CoV-2. This article summarizes the pathogenesis, pathological manifestations, and clinical features of SARS-CoV-2 direct or indirect renal injury. Including direct injury, indirect injury, special comorbidities (receiving kidney transplantation and chronic kidney disease), and vaccine-related renal injury, and exploring the possible therapeutic effect of anti-SARS-CoV-2 therapy on renal injury. The purpose is to provide reference for understanding COVID-19-related renal injury, guiding clinical and pathological diagnosis and treatment, and evaluating prognosis.

Perioperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in pediatric congenital heart disease: Chinese expert consensus. World J Pediatr 2023; 19:7-19. [PMID: 36417081 PMCID: PMC9832091 DOI: 10.1007/s12519-022-00636-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the main supportive diseases of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in children. The management of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for pediatric CHD faces more severe challenges due to the complex anatomical structure of the heart, special pathophysiology, perioperative complications and various concomitant malformations. The survival rate of ECMO for CHD was significantly lower than other classifications of diseases according to the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization database. This expert consensus aims to improve the survival rate and reduce the morbidity of this patient population by standardizing the clinical strategy. METHODS The editing group of this consensus gathered 11 well-known experts in pediatric cardiac surgery and ECMO field in China to develop clinical recommendations formulated on the basis of existing evidences and expert opinions. RESULTS The primary concern of ECMO management in the perioperative period of CHD are patient selection, cannulation strategy, pump flow/ventilator parameters/vasoactive drug dosage setting, anticoagulation management, residual lesion screening, fluid and wound management and weaning or transition strategy. Prevention and treatment of complications of bleeding, thromboembolism and brain injury are emphatically discussed here. Special conditions of ECMO management related to the cardiovascular anatomy, haemodynamics and the surgical procedures of common complex CHD should be considered. CONCLUSIONS The consensus could provide a reference for patient selection, management and risk identification of perioperative ECMO in children with CHD. Video abstract (MP4 104726 kb).
