Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In recent years, doubt has been cast on the existence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury. The skepticism has stemmed from observational studies from large administrative healthcare databases. Although they correctly call that contrast-induced acute kidney injury is less common than previously thought, they cannot completely exclude selection bias. RECENT FINDINGS Though less common than previously thought, contrast-induced acute kidney injury still exists. The only prophylactic method that remains valid is that of isotonic volume expansion, which is still deemed beneficial in high-risk patients. N-acetylcysteine and sodium bicarbonate are ineffective and their use should be abandoned. SUMMARY Contrast-induced kidney injury should be defined based on clinical grounds, not merely on biochemical numbers. More research to validate a clinical definition is necessary in order to accurately re-examine its incidence.

Adenosine antagonists for prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials with trial sequential analysis. Exp Ther Med 2019; 18:85-98. [PMID: 31258641 PMCID: PMC6566091 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.7566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2018] [Accepted: 03/01/2019] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is caused by intravascular administration of contrast agent. The efficacy of adenosine antagonists (AAs) in preventing CIN remains controversial, and its elucidation was the objective of the present meta-analysis. A trial sequential analysis (TSA) to assess the reliability of the pooled results was also performed. The Medline, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane databases were searched to retrieve all published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing AAs with controls in preventing CIN. Heterogeneity, publication bias and quality of studies were assessed. Sensitivity, cumulative and subgroup analyses were also performed. The risk of random errors was evaluated by TSA. A total of 17 trials with 1,483 subjects were included. Pooled results indicated that AAs significantly reduced the incidence of CIN [risk ratio, 0.53; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.29-0.95; P=0.034] and the serum creatinine (SCr) level after contrast media (CM) administration (standardized mean difference, -0.24; 95% CI, -0.44 to -0.04; P=0.019). Meta-regression did not identify any significant source of heterogeneity. In the subgroup analyses, AAs tended to exhibit a greater prevention efficacy in trials with sample sizes of ≥70, baseline SCr of <1.5 mg/dl and low study quality. TSA on the incidence of CIN indicated that the required information size determined as n=1,778 was not reached, and that the cumulative Z-curve did not cross the TSA boundary. In conclusion, the present meta-analysis of data from current RCTs suggested that AAs reduce the incidence of CIN and the SCr levels after CM administration. However, TSA showed that the risk of having a false-positive result was greater than 5% in the meta-analysis of the incidence of CIN, indicating that more evidence is required to ensure the benefit of AAs in preventing CIN.

[PMID: 30774964 PMCID: PMC6350720 DOI: 10.1136/openhrt-2018-000864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2018] [Revised: 10/04/2018] [Accepted: 11/10/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Quantify the efficacy of strategies to prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in high-risk patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) with or without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background CI-AKI remains a common problem. The renoprotective efficacy of existing pharmacological agents remains uncertain in high-risk populations. Methods Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) to compare different strategies versus hydration in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing CAG±PCI. Primary outcome was incident CI-AKI. Fixed-effects meta-analyses estimated ORs, 95% CIs and heterogeneity. Results Forty-eight RCTs were included. Seven pharmacological strategies were evaluated by multiple RCTs and 10 by one RCT each. These had varying risk of bias; >25% of trials were at high risk of performance bias. Five strategies significantly reduced the odds of CI-AKI: N-acetylcysteine (NAC) (27 trials, 5694 participants; OR=0.77, 95% CI 0.65 to 0.91, p=0.002, I2=36%), ascorbic acid (four trials, 759 participants; OR=0.59, 95% CI 0.39 to 0.89, p=0.01, I2=0%), statin (two trials, 3234 participants; OR=0.59, 95% CI 0.39 to 0.89, p=0.75, I2=0%), trimetazidine (two trials, 214 participants; OR=0.27, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.71, p=0.01, I2=0%) and nicorandil (two trials, 389 participants; OR=0.47, 95% CI 0.23 to 0.94, p=0.03, I2=52%). Theophylline had a similar, but non-significant, effect. A subgroup analysis found that the benefit of NAC was highest in patients requiring a high-contrast dose. Conclusions Several drugs are renoprotective in patients with CKD undergoing CAG±PCI. The evidence is strongest for NAC. We recommend that NAC should be used when a high dose of contrast is anticipated. Trial registration number PROSPERO registration CRD42014014704.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Different methods to prevent contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) have been proposed in recent years. We performed a mixed treatment comparison to evaluate and rank suggested interventions. METHODS A comprehensive Systematic review and a Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials was completed. Results were tabulated and graphically represented using a network diagram; forest plots and league tables were shown to rank treatments by the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA). A stacked bar chart rankogram was generated. We performed main analysis with 200 RCTs and three analyses according to contrast media and high or normal baseline renal profile that includes 173, 112 & 60 RCTs respectively. RESULTS We have included 200 trials with 42,273 patients and 44 interventions. The primary outcome was CI-AKI, defined as ≥25% relative increase or ≥ 0.5 mg/dl increase from baseline creatinine one to 5 days post contrast exposure. The top ranked interventions through different analyses were Allopurinol, Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) & Oxygen (0.9647, 0.7809 & 0.7527 in the main analysis). Comparatively, reference treatment intravenous hydration was ranked lower but better than Placebo (0.3124 VS 0.2694 in the main analysis). CONCLUSION Multiple CA-AKI preventive interventions have been tested in RCTs. This network evaluates data for all the explored options. The results suggest that some options (particularly allopurinol, PGE1 & Oxygen) deserve further evaluation in a larger well-designed RCTs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Contrast Media Safety Committee (CMSC) of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) has updated its 2011 guidelines on the prevention of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI). The results of the literature review and the recommendations based on it, which were used to prepare the new guidelines, are presented in two papers. AREAS COVERED IN PART 2: Topics reviewed include stratification of PC-AKI risk, the need to withdraw nephrotoxic medication, PC-AKI prophylaxis with hydration or drugs, the use of metformin in diabetic patients receiving contrast medium and the need to alter dialysis schedules in patients receiving contrast medium. KEY POINTS • In CKD, hydration reduces the PC-AKI risk • Intravenous normal saline and intravenous sodium bicarbonate provide equally effective prophylaxis • No drugs have been consistently shown to reduce the risk of PC-AKI • Stop metformin from the time of contrast medium administration if eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m 2 • Dialysis schedules need not change when intravascular contrast medium is given.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of gender as a risk factor for developing contrast media-associated adverse drug reactions (CM-ADRs) by comparing the incidence of CM-ADR between male and female patients according to study design, ADR type, and computed tomography (CT) examination. MATERIAL AND METHODS We systematically searched three electronic databases for eligible studies. In the studies included (n=18), we assessed effect estimates of the relative incidence of CM-ADR, analysed by experimental design, ADR type and CT examination. This was calculated by using a random effects model if clinical conditions showed heterogeneity; otherwise, a fixed effects model was used. RESULTS We identified 10,776 patients administered CM. According to the designs, studies were classified into randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies. Results were as follows: risk ratio (RR)=1.07 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.79-1.46, P=0.66) for RCTs, and RR=0.77 (95% CI: 0.58-1.04, P=0.09) for observational studies. The results of analysis according to ADR type and for undergoing CT demonstrated that the incidence of CM-ADR did not differ between males and females. CONCLUSIONS We found no significant difference in the incidence of CM-ADRs between male and female patients according to study design, ADR type, or CT examination. Future studies to determine why gender has shown different roles as a risk factor between CM-ADRs and non-CM ADRs are needed.

Abstract
This systematic review with meta-analysis sought to determine the strength of evidence for the effects of hydration (sodium bicarbonate [SB] and normal saline [NS]), supplementations ( N-acetylcysteine [NAC] and vitamin C), and some common drugs (adenosine antagonists [AAs], statins, loop diuretics, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors [ACEIs]) on the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and requirement for hemodialysis after coronary angiography. After screening, a total of 125 trials that reported outcomes were identified. Pooled analysis indicated beneficial effects of SB versus NS (odds ratio [OR] = 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.56-0.94; P = .01), NAC (OR = 0.79; 95% CI: 0.70-0.88; P = .001), vitamin C (OR = 0.64; 95% CI: 0.45-0.89; P = .01), statins (OR = 0.45; 95% CI: 0.35-0.57; P = .001), AA (OR = 0.28; 95% CI: 0.14-0.47; P = .001), loop diuretics (OR = 0.97; 95% CI: 0.33-2.85; P = .9), and ACEI (OR = 1.06; 95% CI: 0.69-1.61; P = .8). Overall, hydration with SB, use of supplements, such as NAC and vitamin C, and administration of statins and AA should always be considered for the prevention of CIN after coronary angiography.

Abstract
AIM Diabetic patients are at increased risk for kidney disease. There is presently no clinical treatment available that effectively protects kidney function in diabetics. This study investigates whether chronic stimulation of the adenosine A2a receptor (A2a AR) protects kidney function in insulinopenic diabetic rats. METHODS Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and corresponding controls were chronically treated with the adenosine A2a AR agonist CGS21680 throughout the four-week diabetes duration. Kidney function was thereafter investigated, and urine and plasma samples were collected for analysis of protein, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers. RESULTS Glomerular filtration rate, renal blood flow, filtration fraction and diabetes-induced kidney hypoxia were all unaffected by chronic A2a AR stimulation. Furthermore, diabetic rats had increased oxidative stress, which was further increased by chronic A2a AR stimulation. However, the 10-fold increased urinary protein excretion observed in the diabetic rats was completely prevented by chronic A2a AR stimulation. These beneficial effects were accompanied by reduced levels of the pro-inflammatory TNF-α and increased levels of the anti-inflammatory IL-10 as well as decreased infiltration of macrophages, glomerular damage and basement membrane thickness. CONCLUSION Chronic A2a AR stimulation prevents proteinuria and glomerular damage in experimental diabetes via an anti-inflammatory mechanism independent of oxidative stress and kidney hypoxia.

Abstract
Iloprost, a prostacyclin analogue, has been effective in preventing renal dysfunction among transplant patients. We hypothesized that iloprost is protective against renal dysfunction in different settings, in which similar underlying mechanisms of nephrotoxicity occur. We conducted a literature review, and discuss the application of iloprost in reducing acute renal insufficiency and the pathophysiological mechanisms of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). One proposed mechanism of CIN is prolonged renal arterial vasoconstriction, causing renal hypoperfusion, ischemia, and release of free radicals. Iloprost is an analogue of the vasodilatory prostaglandin PGI2 . It has demonstrated cytoprotective properties in the renal transplant population by inhibiting lysosomal degradation and release of free radicals, allowing membrane stabilization. Two good-quality studies reported on iloprost and CIN. Five studies reported protective effects of iloprost in renal transplantation and 1 in coronary artery bypass grafting. Iloprost was found to be renoprotective in patients with baseline renal insufficiency who underwent coronary angiography for CIN (risk ratio [RR] = 0.32, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16-0.67) and increases the weighted mean difference improvement in creatinine clearance (RR = 4.56, 95% CI: 1.82-7.30). CIN is associated with major adverse cardiac events. Preventing CIN is important for patient safety and reducing disease burden. Iloprost may reduce CIN by up to 68%. The same mechanisms of iloprost that inhibit graft dysfunction in the acute post-renal transplant and cardiopulmonary bypass setting may also contribute to preventing CIN. Large randomized controlled trials are necessary to determine the clinical efficacy of iloprost in the angiography setting.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after coronary angiography. Early biomarkers of this disease are needed since increase in serum creatinine levels is a late marker. To assess the usefulness of urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (uKIM-1), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) and liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (uL-FABP) for early detection of AKI in these patients, comparing their performance with another group of cardiac surgery patients. Biomarkers were measured in 193 patients, 12 h after intervention. In the ROC analysis, AUC for KIM-1, NGAL and L-FABP was 0.713, 0.958 and 0.642, respectively, in the coronary angiography group, and 0.716, 0.916 and 0.743 in the cardiac surgery group. Urinary KIM-1 12 h after intervention is predictive of AKI in adult patients undergoing coronary angiography, but NGAL shows higher sensitivity and specificity. L-FABP provides inferior discrimination for AKI than KIM-1 or NGAL in contrast to its performance after cardiac surgery. This is the first study showing the predictive capacity of KIM-1 for AKI after coronary angiography. Further studies are still needed to answer relevant questions about the clinical utility of biomarkers for AKI in different clinical settings.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a serious complication of angiographic procedures resulting from the administration of contrast media (CM). It is the third most common cause of hospital acquired acute renal injury and represents about 12% of the cases. CIN is defined as an elevation of serum creatinine (Scr) of more than 25% or ≥0.5 mg/dl (44 μmol/l) from baseline within 48 h. More sensitive markers of renal injury are desired, therefore, several biomarkers of tubular injury are under evaluation. Multiple risk factors may contribute to the development of CIN; these factors are divided into patient- and procedure-related factors. Treatment of CIN is mainly supportive, consisting mainly of careful fluid and electrolyte management, although dialysis may be required in some cases. The available treatment option makes prevention the corner stone of management. This article will review the recent evidence concerning CIN incidence, diagnosis, and prevention strategies as well as its treatment and prognostic implications.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is one of the most widely discussed and debated topics in cardiovascular medicine. With increasing number of contrast-media- (CM-) enhanced imaging studies being performed and growing octogenarian population with significant comorbidities, incidence of CI-AKI remains high. In this review, pathophysiology of CI-AKI, its relationship with different types of CM, role of serum and urinary biomarkers for diagnosing CI-AKI, and various prophylactic strategies used for nephroprotection against CI-AKI are discussed in detail.

Abstract
In this prospective study, we aimed to determine the protective antioxidant role of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) on development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in diabetic patients undergoing coronary angiography. Seventy-eight diabetic patients undergoing coronary angiography were included. Thirty-nine patients were randomized to control group and 39 patients to ALA group. Both groups were hydrated on the day of angiography, and the ALA group had also received three doses of "Thioctacid 600 mg HR, MEDA Manufacturing GmbH" in pill form. Serum creatinine clearance, cystatin C, and urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were studied before and after angiography. We defined CIN as either ≥25% or ≥0.5 mg/dL increase in serum creatinine at 48th hour after angiography. Baseline clinical characteristics were similar in both groups. Mehran risk score and creatinine clearance were comparable in control and therapy groups (5.59 ± 1.96 vs. 5.49 ± 1.73, p = 0.54 and 89 ± 21 vs. 96 ± 24, p = 0.13, respectively). The volumes of contrast media (median values of 80 mL vs. 75 mL) and hydration with saline (2862 ± 447 mL vs. 2637 ± 592 mL) were also similar (p > 0.05). The incidence of CIN was the same (8%) in both the groups. Alterations in serum creatinine, cystatin C, and urinary NGAL levels before and after the procedure were comparable between the ALA and control groups (group p-values were >0.05 in two-way repeated measures analysis of variance). We presented for the first time that ALA therapy added to hydration does not decrease the risk of CIN development in diabetic patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Abstract
Although contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) has a great impact on patients' prognosis, few data exist regarding predictors of CI-AKI in patients with severe renal dysfunction who have undergone contrast angiography. Therefore, we prospectively studied 25 patients with renal dysfunction, which was defined as the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) level <45 ml/min/1.73 m(2), undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We performed hemodiafiltration with blood suction from the right atrium (RA-HDF). The mean level of urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) at baseline was significantly higher in the CI-AKI group than in the non-CI-AKI group (59.8 ± 45.6 vs 13.4 ± 11.9 μg/gCr, P = 0.0003). Multivariate regression analysis demonstrated that baseline urinary L-FABP was an independent significant predictor of CI-AKI (β = 0.741, P = 0.013). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis showed that baseline urinary L-FABP exhibited 100 % sensitivity and 81.8 % specificity for predicting CI-AKI when the cutoff value was defined as 19.0 μg/gCr. Interestingly, the incidence of CI-AKI after CAG or PCI was reduced in the RA-HDF group in a comparison with 41 control patients (12 % vs 27 %) with eGFR level <45 ml/min/1.73 m(2) who underwent PCI before the introduction of RA-HDF. In conclusion, baseline L-FABP levels can be a predictor for occurrence of CI-AKI. We suggest that RA-HDF may prevent the development of CI-AKI in patients with severe renal dysfunction undergoing coronary procedures, although further large-scale prospective study is necessary to confirm our conclusions.

Abstract
Recently there has been a noticeable resurgence in the usage of percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) by the development of less invasive endovascular therapies including transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We performed BAV in a 91-year-old man with end-stage severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) and an impending abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture who had been refused surgical treatment because of the comorbidities with stage V chronic kidney disease (CKD) and severe left ventricular dysfunction. Improvement in hemodynamics and kidney function was observed after BAV. Subsequently, we performed endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) successfully for AAA using iodinated contrast. No deterioration of kidney function was confirmed after the procedure. The patient was discharged without any adverse events. At present, the possibilities of TAVI or surgical aortic valve replacement (s-AVR) are under consideration as the definitive therapy for the upcoming aortic valve restenosis. In conclusion, this inoperable patient with multiple comorbidities was successfully treated, at lower risk, by catheter-based two-stage therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether treatment with adenosine receptor antagonists such as theophylline can prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) remains controversial. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials using MEDLINE (1966 to July 2011), EMBASE (1980 to July 2011), Web of Science (1986 to July 2011), and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (1996 to July 2011), without language restriction. SETTING & POPULATION Patients undergoing contrast procedures. SELECTION CRITERIA FOR STUDIES Randomized controlled trials assessing adenosine antagonists versus control for prevention of contrast-induced AKI. INTERVENTION Adenosine antagonists with or without N-acetylcysteine versus control with or without N-acetylcysteine. OUTCOMES Contrast-induced AKI, change in serum creatinine level, requirement of dialysis, and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS 16 trials (1,412 participants) were included. Theophylline significantly decreased the risk of contrast-induced AKI (13 trials, 1,222 patients; risk ratio, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.26-0.89; P = 0.02; I(2) = 45%) and had a protective effect on the absolute change in serum creatinine concentration (13 trials, 1,170 patients; standardized mean difference, -0.31 mg/dL; 95% CI, -0.50 to -0.11; P = 0.002; I(2) = 60%). Meta-regression showed a significant relation between the relative risk of contrast nephropathy and baseline serum creatinine level or Jadad score. No clear effects of treatment on risk of dialysis and in-hospital mortality were identified. LIMITATIONS Power to assess clinical end points was limited. CONCLUSIONS Theophylline treatment significantly reduced the incidence of contrast-induced AKI and had a modest improvement on kidney function after contrast exposure in the general population. However, beneficial effects of theophylline were not observed in patients with high baseline creatinine values (serum creatinine ≥1.5 mg/dL). In addition, the long-term effect of this agent on more clinically important outcomes was not established. Future large-scale high-quality multicenter trials in participants with different underlying risks of contrast-induced AKI and that incorporate the evaluation of clinically relevant outcomes are required.

Abstract
A conus artery is sometimes a good collateral source for the left anterior descending coronary artery and the right coronary artery (RCA). In some cases, the conus artery arises independently of the RCA from a separate orifice, which is called an isolated conus artery. The conus artery is often missed by angiography for RCA if a catheter is deeply engaged. This case report describes a percutaneous coronary intervention of chronic total occlusion of the proximal RCA with good collateral circulation from an isolated conus artery by super-selective ipsilateral injection via the artery.
