Ann Vasc Surg 2024; 108:228-238. [PMID: 38964443 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2024.04.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To present the value of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in diagnosis and treatment of complicated type B aortic dissection with malperfusion. Especially, the value of IVUS regarding the treatment strategy, reoperation rate, acute kidney injury, and false lumen thrombosis was investigated. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 25 type B aortic dissection cases with malperfusion treated with endovascular therapy from April 2019 to August 2022. In 17 cases, angiography and IVUS were applied during the operation (IVUS group), and in 8 cases, angiography was used without IVUS (control group) for final intraoperative control. IVUS was used to assess the true lumen collapse and to decide if additional bare stenting was necessary or not. Details from patients' charts and documentation from surgeries were analyzed. The endovascular technique included thoracic endovascular aortic repair with primary entry sealing and-if needed-bare stenting of the true lumen distal of the entry tears using the Provisional Extension To Induce Complete Attachment (PETTICOAT) technique. RESULTS All patients presented with pain localized mostly (48%) in thorax and abdomen. In all patients, the proximal entry tear of the dissection was covered using thoracic endovascular aortic repair. The PETTICOAT technique was applied in 13 cases (52%), whereas most combined procedures were applied in the IVUS group (12 compared to 1; P = 0.02). A total of 3 patients (1 in the control group, 12.5% and 2 in the IVUS group, 11.8%) underwent a bowel resection. Totally 8 patients (32%) underwent a reoperation in aorta (3 during the hospital stay). There were no statistical differences between IVUS and control group regarding the preoperative findings, the reoperation rates, and the postoperative complications. Five patients died (4 during the hospital stay); 1 in control and 4 in IVUS group; P = 0.53. The follow-up included a clinical and a computed tomography angiography examination. No statistically significant difference regarding occurrence and extension of false lumen thrombosis was observed between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS The IVUS and control groups showed no difference in survival rates. The use of IVUS extended the indication for PETTICOAT technique with statistically significant difference. A milder form of acute kidney injury presented in the IVUS group compared to the control group. In addition, a stronger correlation between IVUS and the avoidance of an aorta reoperation was observed, although it did not reach statistical significance.

Postoperative acute kidney injury after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for acute type B aortic dissection. J Vasc Surg 2023; 78:912-919.e1. [PMID: 37327951 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2023.05.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has evolved as the standard for treating complicated acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD). Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients and is commonly observed in patients with ATBAD. The purpose of the study was to characterize AKI after TEVAR. METHODS All patients who underwent TEVAR for ATBAD from 2011 through 2021 were identified using the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection. The primary end point was AKI. A generalized linear model analysis was performed to identify a factor associated with postoperative AKI. RESULTS A total of 630 patients presented with ATBAD and underwent TEVAR. The indication for TEVAR was complicated ATBAD in 64.3%, high-risk uncomplicated ATBAD in 27.6%, and uncomplicated ATBAD in 8.1%. Of 630 patients, 102 (16.2%) developed postoperative AKI (AKI group) and 528 patients (83.8%) did not (non-AKI group). The most common indication for TEVAR was malperfusion (37.5%). In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in the AKI group (18.6% vs 4%; P < .001). Postoperatively, cerebrovascular accident, spinal cord ischemia, limb ischemia, and prolonged ventilation were more commonly observed in the AKI group. The expected mortality was similar at 2 years between the two groups (P = .51). Overall, the preoperative AKI was observed in 95 (15.7%) in the entire cohort consisting of 60 (64.5%) in the AKI group and 35 (6.8%) in the non-AKI group. A history of CKD (odds ratio, 4.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-14.1; P = .01) and preoperative AKI (odds ratio, 24.1; 95% confidence interval, 10.6-55.0; P < .001) were independently associated with postoperative AKI. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of postoperative AKI was 16.2% in patients undergoing TEVAR for ATBAD. Patients with postoperative AKI had a higher rate of in-hospital morbidities and mortality than those without. A history of CKD and preoperative AKI were independently associated with postoperative AKI.

Int J Cardiol 2023; 377:33-41. [PMID: 36513283 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2022.12.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are many risk factors related to early death after surgery among patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) that have been analyzed in previous studies, but no evidence-based study has been conducted to confirm these risk factors. AIMS The aims of this study were to investigate risk factors for early death after surgery in patients with ATAAD via systematic review and meta-analysis and assess evidence-based strategies for preventing adverse events. METHODS The protocol for this study was prospectively registered with PROSPERO (CRD 42022332772). The authors systematically searched PubMed, Ovid, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines from database construction to May 2021. Studies that met the selection criteria were determined by two independent researchers, and the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were reported for the risk factors and were pooled using Stata 15.0. RESULTS A total of 23 studies including 5510 patients met the inclusion criteria, and 10 risk factors were analyzed in this meta-analysis. The preoperative risk factors for early death after surgery in patients with ATAAD were age [(OR: 1.03, 95% CI (1.01, 1.06)], male sex [(OR: 1.43, 95% CI (1.06, 1.92)], shock [(OR: 1.91, 95% CI (1.06, 3.45)], malperfusion [(OR: 3.45, 95% CI (2.24, 5.31)] and cardiac tamponade [(OR: 3.89, 95% CI (1.17, 12.98)]. CONCLUSION Patients with ATAAD who have an older age, male sex, shock, malperfusion and cardiac tamponade have a higher risk for early death after surgery. However, more highly homogenous studies are needed to demonstrate these results. Clinical staff should pay more attention to these factors and take individual actions to reduce mortality after surgery in patients with ATAAD.

Rapid Morphological Measurement Method of Aortic Dissection Stent Based on Spatial Observation Point Set. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10020139. [PMID: 36829632 PMCID: PMC9951888 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10020139] [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: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Post-operative stent morphology of aortic dissection patients is important for performing clinical diagnosis and prognostic assessment. However, stent morphologies still need to be manually measured, which is a process prone to errors, high time consumption and difficulty in exploiting inter-data associations. Herein, we propose a method based on the stepwise combination of basic, non-divisible data sets to quickly obtain morphological parameters with high accuracy. METHODS We performed the 3D reconstruction of 109 post-operative follow-up CT image data from 26 patients using mimics software. By extracting the spatial locations of the basic morphological observation points on the stent, we defined a basic and non-reducible set of observation points. Further, we implemented a fully automatic stent segmentation and an observation point extraction algorithm. We analyzed the stability and accuracy of the algorithms on a test set containing 8 cases and 408 points. Based on this dataset, we calculated three morphological parameters of different complexity for the different spatial structural features exhibited by the stent. Finally, we compared the two measurement schemes in four aspects: data variability, data stability, statistical process complexity and algorithmic error. RESULTS The statistical results of the two methods on two low-complexity morphological parameters (spatial position of stent end and vascular stent end-slip volume) show good agreement (n = 26, P1, P2 < 0.001, r1 = 0.992, r2 = 0.988). The statistics of the proposed method for the morphological parameters of medium complexity (proximal support ring feature diameter and distal support ring feature diameter) avoid the errors caused by manual extraction, and the magnitude of this correction to the traditional method does not exceed 4 mm with an average correction of 1.38 mm. Meanwhile, our proposed automatic observation point extraction method has only 2.2% error rate on the test set, and the average spatial distance from the manually marked observation points is 0.73 mm. Thus, the proposed method is able to rapidly and accurately measure the stent circumferential deflection angle, which is highly complex and cannot be measured using traditional methods. CONCLUSIONS The proposed method can significantly reduce the statistical observation time and information processing cost compared to the traditional morphological observation methods. Moreover, when new morphological parameters are required, one can quickly and accurately obtain the target parameters by new "combinatorial functions." Iterative modification of the data set itself is avoided.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to identify the risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) and develop and validate a prognostic dynamic nomogram for in-hospital mortality in these patients. Methods This retrospective study involved patients with TBAD treated from April 2002 to December 2020 at the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command. The patients with TBAD were divided into survival and non-survival groups. The data were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. To identify independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality, multivariate logistic regression analysis, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator regression were used. A prediction model was constructed using a nomogram based on these factors and validated using the original data set. To assess its discriminative ability, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated, and the calibration ability was tested using a calibration curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test. Clinical utility was evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curves (CIC). Results Of the 978 included patients, 52 (5.3%) died in hospital. The following variables helped predict in-hospital mortality: pleural effusion, systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg, heart rate >100 bpm, anemia, ischemic cerebrovascular disease, abnormal cTnT level, and estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min. The prediction model demonstrated good discrimination [AUC = 0.894; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.850-0.938]. The predicted probabilities of in-hospital death corresponded well to the actual prevalence rate [calibration curve: via 1,000 bootstrap resamples, a bootstrap-corrected Harrell's concordance index of 0.905 (95% CI, 0.865-0.945), and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test (χ2 = 8.3334, P = 0.4016)]. DCA indicated that when the risk threshold was set between 0.04 and 0.88, the predictive model could achieve larger clinical net benefits than "no intervention" or "intervention for all" options. Moreover, CIC showed good predictive ability and clinical utility for the model. Conclusion We developed and validated prediction nomograms, including a simple bed nomogram and online dynamic nomogram, that could be used to identify patients with TBAD at higher risk of in-hospital mortality, thereby better enabling clinicians to provide individualized patient management and timely and effective interventions.

Abstract
Objective A clinical prediction model for postoperative combined Acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with Type A acute aortic dissection (TAAAD) and Type B acute aortic dissection (TBAAD) was constructed by using Machine Learning (ML). Methods Baseline data was collected from Acute aortic division (AAD) patients admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2021. (1) We identified baseline Serum creatinine (SCR) estimation methods and used them as a basis for diagnosis of AKI. (2) Divide their total datasets randomly into Training set (70%) and Test set (30%), Bootstrap modeling and validation of features using multiple ML methods in the training set, and select models corresponding to the largest Area Under Curve (AUC) for follow-up studies. (3) Screening of the best ML model variables through the model visualization tools Shapley Addictive Explanations (SHAP) and Recursive feature reduction (REF). (4) Finally, the pre-screened prediction models were evaluated using test set data from three aspects: discrimination, Calibration, and clinical benefit. Results The final incidence of AKI was 69.4% (120/173) in 173 patients with TAAAD and 28.6% (81/283) in 283 patients with TBAAD. For TAAAD-AKI, the Random Forest (RF) model showed the best prediction performance in the training set (AUC = 0.760, 95% CI:0.630–0.881); while for TBAAD-AKI, the Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) model worked best (AUC = 0.734, 95% CI:0.623–0.847). Screening of the characteristic variables revealed that the common predictors among the two final prediction models for postoperative AKI due to AAD were baseline SCR, Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and Uric acid (UA) at admission, Mechanical ventilation time (MVT). The specific predictors in the TAAAD-AKI model are: White blood cell (WBC), Platelet (PLT) and D dimer at admission, Plasma The specific predictors in the TBAAD-AKI model were N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), Serum kalium, Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and Systolic blood pressure (SBP) at admission, Combined renal arteriography in surgery. Finally, we used in terms of Discrimination, the ROC value of the RF model for TAAAD was 0.81 and the ROC value of the LightGBM model for TBAAD was 0.74, both with good accuracy. In terms of calibration, the calibration curve of TAAAD-AKI's RF fits the ideal curve the best and has the lowest and smallest Brier score (0.16). Similarly, the calibration curve of TBAAD-AKI's LightGBM model fits the ideal curve the best and has the smallest Brier score (0.15). In terms of Clinical benefit, the best ML models for both types of AAD have good Net benefit as shown by Decision Curve Analysis (DCA). Conclusion We successfully constructed and validated clinical prediction models for the occurrence of AKI after surgery in TAAAD and TBAAD patients using different ML algorithms. The main predictors of the two types of AAD-AKI are somewhat different, and the strategies for early prevention and control of AKI are also different and need more external data for validation.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common and serious complications in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD). This study aimed at investigating the incidence and risk factors of in-hospital AKI in TBAD patients involving the renal artery who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) only. Methods A total of 256 patients who were diagnosed as TBAD combined with renal artery involvement were included in this retrospective study. All patients were divided into the AKI group and the non-AKI group according to the KDIGO criteria. The risk factors for AKI were identified using a multivariate logistic regression model. Results A total of 256 patients were included in this study, and the incidence of AKI was 18% (46/256). Patients in the AKI group were more likely to have a higher proportion of the youth, a higher level of body mass index, and a shorter time from onset to admission. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the youth (age ≤40 years) (OR: 2.853, 95%CI: 1.061–7.668, p = .038) were prone to AKI, and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (OR: 1.526, per 15-ml/min/1.73 m2 decrease, 95%CI: 1.114–2.092; p = .009), higher diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (OR: 1.418, per 10-mmHg increase; 95%CI: 1.070–1.879; p = .015), and fasting blood glucose (FBG) ≥7 mmol/L on admission (OR: 2.592; 95%CI: 1.299–5.174; p = .007) were independent risk factors for AKI. Conclusions Higher incidence of AKI had been perceived in this study, most of them were young and middle-aged patients. Renopreventive measures should be considered in those high-risk patients with younger age, lower eGFR, higher DBP, and higher FBG on admission.

Abstract
Purpose Type B aortic dissection is a rare but life-threatening disease. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was widely used for Type B aortic dissection patients in the last decade due to the lower mortality and morbidity compared with open chest surgical repair (OCSR). AKI in type B aortic dissection is a well-recognized complication and indicates poor short-term and long-term outcome. The objective of this concise review was to identify the risk factors and the impact of AKI on type B aortic dissection patients. Methods and results A literature search was performed using PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library with the search terms ‘type B aortic dissection’ and ‘acute kidney injury’ (AKI), and all English-language literatures published in print or available online from inception through August 2020 were thoroughly reviewed. Studies that reported relative AKI risks and outcomes in type B aortic dissection patient were included. Major mechanisms of AKI in type B aortic dissection included renal hypoperfusion, inflammation response, and the use of contrast medium. Type B aortic dissection patients with AKI significantly had increased hospital stay duration, need of renal replacement therapy, and 30-d and 1-year mortality. Conclusions AKI in type B aortic dissection is a well-recognized complication and associated with poor short-term and long-term outcome. Early identification of high-risk patients, early diagnosis of AKI, stabilization of the hemodynamic parameters, avoidance of nephrotoxic drugs, and optimization of the use of contrast agents are the major strategies for the reduction of AKI in type B aortic dissection patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) on early and long-term mortality in patients with acute aortic dissection by conducting a meta-analysis. METHODS An extensive literature search was performed in PubMed and Embase databases until February 15, 2020. Observational studies that reported the associations between postoperative AKI and early (in-hospital and within 30 days) or long-term mortality in patients with acute aortic dissection were included. RESULTS Seven studies comprising 1525 acute aortic dissection patients were identified. A random effect meta-analysis showed that postoperative AKI was significantly associated with higher risk of long-term mortality (risk ratio [RR] 2.32; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.50-3.59). Subgroup analysis revealed that the pooled RR of long-term mortality was 1.42 (95% CI 0.90-2.22) for stage 1 AKI, 1.72 (95% CI 0.95-3.12) for stage 2 AKI, and 4.46 (95% CI 2.72-7.32) for stage 3 AKI, respectively. Furthermore, postoperative stage 3 AKI was associated with an increased risk of early mortality (RR 11.3; 95% CI 4.2-30.5). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis provided clinical evidence that postoperative stage 3 AKI is associated with higher risk of early and long-term mortality, even after adjusting important confounding factors. However, the current findings should be interpreted with caution due to the retrospective nature and limited number of studies analyzed.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the association of postoperative platelet counts with early and late outcomes after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type B aortic dissection (TBAD). We retrospectively evaluated 892 patients with TBAD who underwent TEVAR from a prospectively maintained database. Postoperative nadir platelet counts were evaluated as a continuous variable, and a categorical variable (thrombocytopenia), which was defined as platelet count≤ the lowest 10% percentile (108 × 109/l). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the impact of postoperative thrombocytopenia on early outcomes, and multivariable cox regression analyses on long-term mortality. Patients with postoperative thrombocytopenia experienced significantly higher rates of postoperative mortality, prolonged intensive care unit stay, death, stroke, limb ischemia, mesenteric ischemia, acute kidney injury (AKI), and puncture-related hematoma (P< .05 for each), but similar rates of immediate type I endoleak and spinal cord ischemia. Multivariable logistic analyses showed that postoperative thrombocytopenia was independently associated with postoperative stroke, limb ischemia, and AKI. Similar results were observed when postoperative nadir platelet count was modeled as a continuous predictor (P< .05 for each). By multivariable Cox analyses, postoperative thrombocytopenia was an independent predictor for long-term all-cause mortality (hazard ratio 2.72, 95% CI, 1.72-4.29, P< .001). For every 30 × 109/L decrease in postoperative platelet count, the risk of long-term all-cause mortality increased by 15% (HR 1.15; 95% CI 1.07-1.25; P< .001). Therefore, postoperative thrombocytopenia might be a useful tool for risk stratification after TEVAR.

Abstract
AKI is one of the most common yet underdiagnosed postoperative complications that can occur after any type of surgery. Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is still poorly defined and due to a wide range of confounding individual variables, its risk is difficult to determine. CIN mainly affects patients with underlying chronic kidney disease, diabetes, sepsis, heart failure, acute coronary syndrome and cardiogenic shock. Further research is necessary to better understand pathophysiology of contrast-induced AKI and consequent implementation of effective prevention and therapeutic strategies. Although many therapies have been tested to avoid CIN, the only potent preventative strategy involves aggressive fluid administration and reduction of contrast volume. Regardless of surgical technique—open or endovascular—perioperative AKI is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and cost. Endovascular procedures always require administration of a contrast media, which may cause acute tubular necrosis or renal vascular embolization leading to renal ischemia and as a consequence, contribute to increased number of post-operative AKIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Conventional clinical wisdom has often been nihilistic regarding the prevention and management of acute kidney injury (AKI), despite its being a frequent and morbid complication associated with both increased mortality and cost. Recent developments have shown that AKI is not inevitable and that changes in management of patients can reduce both the incidence and morbidity of perioperative AKI. The purpose of this narrative review was to review the epidemiology and outcomes of AKI in patients undergoing vascular surgery using current consensus definitions, to discuss some of the novel emerging risk stratification and prevention techniques relevant to the vascular surgery patient, and to describe a standardized perioperative pathway for the prevention of AKI after vascular surgery. METHODS We performed a critical review of the literature on AKI in the vascular surgery patient using the PubMed and MEDLINE databases and Google Scholar through September 2017 using web-based search engines. We also searched the guidelines and publications available online from the organizations Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes and the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative. The search terms used included acute kidney injury, AKI, epidemiology, outcomes, prevention, therapy, and treatment. RESULTS The reported epidemiology and outcomes associated with AKI have been evolving since the publication of consensus criteria that allow accurate identification of mild and moderate AKI. The incidence of AKI after major vascular surgery using current criteria is as high as 49%, although there are significant differences, depending on the type of procedure performed. Many tools have become available to assess and to stratify the risk for AKI and to use that information to prevent AKI in the surgical patient. We describe a standardized clinical assessment and management pathway for vascular surgery patients, incorporating current risk assessment and preventive strategies to prevent AKI and to decrease its complications. Patients without any risk factors can be managed in a perioperative fast-track pathway. Those patients with positive risk factors are tested for kidney stress using the urinary biomarker TIMP-2•IGFBP7, and care is then stratified according to the result. Management follows current Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. CONCLUSIONS AKI is a common postoperative complication among vascular surgery patients and has a significant impact on morbidity, mortality, and cost. Preoperative risk assessment and optimal perioperative management guided by that risk assessment can minimize the consequences associated with postoperative AKI. Adherence to a standardized perioperative pathway designed to reduce risk of AKI after major vascular surgery offers a promising clinical approach to mitigate the incidence and severity of this challenging clinical problem.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Various recent studies using modern standardized classifications for AKI reported a variable incidence of AKI after major abdominal surgery ranging from 3 to 35%. Several patient-related, procedure-related factors and postoperative complications were identified as risk factors for AKI in this setting. AKI following major abdominal surgery has been shown to be associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes. Herein, we provide a contemporary and critical review of AKI after major abdominal surgery focusing on its incidence, risk factors, pathogeny and outcomes.

Abstract
Background Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become an emerging treatment modality for acute type B aortic dissection (TBAD) patients in recent years. The risk factors and impacts of acute kidney injury (AKI) after percutaneous TEVAR, however, have not been widely established. Methods We retrospectively studied the clinical records of 305 consecutive patients who admitted to our institution and had TEVAR for TBAD between December 2009 and June 2013. The patients were routinely monitored for their renal functions preoperatively until 7 days after TEVAR. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Guidelines (KDIGO) criteria were used for AKI. Results Of the total 305 consecutive patients, 84 (27.5%) developed AKI after TEVAR, comprising 66 (21.6%) patients in KDIGO stage 1, 6 (2.0%) patients in stage 2 and 12 (3.9%) patients in stage 3. From the logistic regression analysis, systolic blood pressure (SBP) on admission >140 mmHg (odds ratio [OR], 2.288; 95% CI, 1.319–3.969) and supra-aortic branches graft bypass hybrid surgery (OR, 3.228; 95% CI, 1.526–6.831) were independent risk factors for AKI after TEVAR. Local anesthesia tended to be a protective factor (OR, 0.563; 95% CI, 0.316–1.001). The preoperative renal function, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker or statin administration, volume of contrast agent, range of TBAD and false lumen involving renal artery were not associated with post-operation AKI. The in-hospital mortality and major adverse events were markedly increased with the occurrence of AKI (7.1% vs 0.9%, P=0.006; 14.3% vs 3.2%, P<0.001, respectively). Conclusions TEVAR for TBAD has a high incidence of AKI, which is associated with worse in-hospital outcomes. SBP on admission and supra-aortic branches graft bypass hybrid surgery were the most significant risk factors. Renopreventive measures should be considered in high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication of severe burn injury and is associated with mortality. The definition of AKI was modified by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes Group in 2012. So far, no study has compared the outcome accuracy of the new AKI staging guidelines with that of the complex score system. Hence, we compared the accuracy of these approaches in predicting mortality. METHODS This was a post hoc analysis of prospectively collected data from an intensive care burn unit in a tertiary care university hospital. Patients admitted to this unit from July 2004 to December 2006 were enrolled. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data and prognostic risk scores were used as predictors of mortality. RESULTS A total of 145 adult patients with a mean age of 41.9 years were studied. Thirty-five patients (24.1%) died during the hospital course. Among the prognostic risk models, the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III system exhibited the strongest discriminative power and the AKI staging system also predicted mortality well (areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve: 0.889 vs. 0.835). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified total burn surface area, ventilator use, AKI, and toxic epidermal necrolysis as independent risk factors for mortality. CONCLUSION Our results revealed that AKI stage has considerable discriminative power for predicting mortality. Compared with other prognostic models, AKI stage is easier to use to assess outcome in patients with severe burn injury.

Abstract
Background We aimed to evaluate the incidence, predictive factors, and impact of acute kidney injury (AKI) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Methods A total of 53 patients who underwent 57 TEVAR operations between 2008 and 2015 were reviewed for the incidence of AKI as defined by the RIFLE (risk, injury, failure, loss, and end-stage kidney disease risk) consensus criteria. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was determined in the perioperative period. Comorbidities and postoperative outcomes were retrospectively reviewed. Results Underlying aortic pathologies included 21 degenerative aortic aneurysms, 20 blunt traumatic aortic injuries, six type B aortic dissections, five type B intramural hematomas, three endoleaks and two miscellaneous diseases. The mean age of the patients was 61.2±17.5 years (range, 15 to 85 years). AKI was identified in 13 (22.8%) of 57 patients. There was an association of preoperative stroke and postoperative paraparesis and paraplegia with AKI. The average intensive care unit (ICU) stay in patients with AKI was significantly longer than in patients without AKI (5.3 vs. 12.7 days, p=0.017). The 30-day mortality rate in patients with AKI was significantly higher than patients without AKI (23.1% vs. 4.5%, p=0.038); however, AKI did not impact long-term survival. Conclusion Preoperative stroke and postoperative paraparesis and paraplegia were identified as predictors for AKI. Patients with AKI experienced longer average ICU stays and greater 30-day mortality than those without AKI. Perioperative identification of high-risk patients, as well as nephroprotective strategies to reduce the incidence of AKI, should be considered as important aspects of a successful TEVAR procedure.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent during hospitalization and may contribute to adverse consequences. We aimed to evaluate long-term adverse renal function and mortality after postoperative AKI in a cohort of patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of adult patients who underwent major non-vascular abdominal surgery between January 2010 and February 2011 at the Department of Surgery II of Hospital de Santa Maria–Centro Hospitalar Lisboa Norte, Portugal. Exclusion criteria were as follows: chronic kidney disease on renal replacement therapy, undergoing renal replacement therapy the week before surgery, death before discharge and loss to follow-up through January 2014. Patients were categorized according to the development of postoperative AKI in the first 48 h after surgery using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes classification. AKI was defined by an increase in absolute serum creatinine (SCr) ≥0.3 mg/dL or by a percentage increase in SCr ≥50% and/or by a decrease in urine output to <0.5 mL/kg/h for >6 h. Adverse renal outcomes (need for long-term dialysis and/or a 25% decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate after hospital discharge) and mortality after discharge were evaluated. Cumulative mortality was analysed with the Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test and outcome predictive factors with the Cox regression. Significance was set at P < 0.05. Results Of 390 selected patients, 72 (18.5%) developed postoperative AKI. The median follow-up was 38 months. Adverse renal outcomes and death after hospital discharge were more frequent among AKI patients (47.2 versus 22.0%, P < 0.0001; and 47.2 versus 20.5%, P < 0.0001, respectively). The 4 year cumulative probability of death was 44.4% for AKI patients, while it was 19.8% for patients with no AKI (log-rank test, P < 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, AKI was a risk factor for adverse renal outcomes (adjusted hazard ratio 1.6, P = 0.046) and mortality (adjusted hazard ratio 1.4, P = 0.043). Conclusions AKI after major abdominal surgery was independently associated with the risk of long-term need for dialysis and/or renal function decline and with the risk of death after hospital discharge.

Abstract
Objective There are many adverse reactions due to clindamycin, but kidney diseases (acute kidney injury, AKI) are uncommon. However, in recent years, the rate of clindamycin-induced kidney diseases has increased. We analyzed 50 patients with clindamycin-induced kidney diseases retrospectively, and investigated the characteristics of these kidney diseases in order to provide a reference for rational clinical drug use and to reduce drug-induced organ damage. Methods We investigated 50 patients diagnosed with clindamycin-induced kidney diseases retrospectively at the Department of Nephrology, Shandong University Qilu Hospital, from January 2009 to December 2013. The parameters included in our study were age, sex, clinical manifestations, efficacy and prognosis. Results All patients were diagnosed with clindamycin-induced kidney diseases within 48 hours of the application of clindamycin at 1.0-2.0 g/day. The patients included 29 women and 21 men. Most of the enrolled patients were 20-59 years old. Fifty-one patients were diagnosed with AKI stage 3 upon admission. Thirty-three had episodes of gross hematuria, but fever, skin rash and eosinophilia were rare. Urine analysis revealed mild proteinuria and severe tubular dysfunction. In the majority of patients, AKI was severe and required renal replacement therapy, but renal function in all patients had recovered significantly two months after discharge. Conclusion Clindamycin-induced AKI is largely reversible and is associated with episodes of gross hematuria. Clinicians should use clindamycin rationally and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

Relationship between acute kidney injury before thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair and in-hospital outcomes in patients with type B acute aortic dissection. JOURNAL OF GERIATRIC CARDIOLOGY : JGC 2015; 12:232-8. [PMID: 26089846 PMCID: PMC4460165 DOI: 10.11909/j.issn.1671-5411.2015.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2015] [Revised: 03/26/2015] [Accepted: 04/02/2015] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Objective Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs after catheter-based interventional procedures and increases mortality. However, the implications of AKI before thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) of type B acute aortic dissection (AAD) remain unclear. This study evaluated the incidence, predictors, and in-hospital outcomes of AKI before TEVAR in patients with type B AAD. Methods Between 2009 and 2013, 76 patients were retrospectively evaluated who received TEVAR for type B AAD within 36 h from symptom onset. The patients were classified into no-AKI vs. AKI groups, and the severity of AKI was further staged according to kidney disease: improving global outcomes criteria before TEVAR. Results The incidence of preoperative AKI was 36.8%. In-hospital complications was significantly higher in patients with preoperative AKI compared with no-AKI (50.0% vs. 4.2%, respectively; P < 0.001), including acute renal failure (21.4% vs. 0, respectively; P < 0.001), and they increased with severity of AKI (P < 0.001). The maximum levels of body temperature and white blood cell count were significantly related to maximum serum creatinine level before TEVAR. Multivariate analysis showed that systolic blood pressure on admission (OR: 1.023; 95% CI: 1.003–1.044; P = 0.0238) and bilateral renal artery involvement (OR: 19.076; 95% CI: 1.914–190.164; P = 0.0120) were strong predictors of preoperative AKI. Conclusions Preoperative AKI frequently occurred in patients with type B AAD, and correlated with higher in-hospital complications and enhanced inflammatory reaction. Systolic blood pressure on admission and bilateral renal artery involvement were major risk factors for AKI before TEVAR.
