Abstract
Background Theoretically, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), especially low-dose ANP, is beneficial in acute kidney injury (AKI). In this study, we examined whether low-dose ANP is effective in preventing or treating AKI by conducting an updated systematic review for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Method We searched the Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE), PubMed, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases for RCTs that compare the effects of low-dose ANP (≤ 50 ng/kg/min) with a placebo or conventional therapy in at-risk patients or patients with AKI. The primary outcome was the incidence of new AKI (in prevention RCTs), while the secondary outcomes were in-hospital mortality rate, renal replacement therapy (RRT) requirement, length of hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) stay, incidence of hypotension, and peak serum creatinine levels. The risk-of-bias was evaluated using the Cochrane Collaboration risk-of-bias tool. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was used for each outcome of interest. Results A total of 18 RCTs (16 prevention and two treatment trials) fulfilled our inclusion criteria. In prevention RCTs, the incidence of new AKI was significantly low in the low-dose ANP group (relative risk [RR] = 0.51; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.36–0.72; P = 0.0001) compared to the control group. In addition, the low-dose ANP group showed a significantly reduced RRT requirement in both prevention (RR = 0.17; 95% CI = 0.04–0.64; P = 0.009) and treatment (RR = 0.43; 95% CI = 0.20–0.93; P = 0.03) RCTs. Among secondary outcomes, in some cases, low-dose ANP was associated with a reduction in ICU and in-hospital stay. The risk-of-bias assessment and TSA results indicated that the sample sizes and qualities of the RCTs were insufficient to conclude the efficacy of low-dose ANP. Conclusion Low-dose ANP might be effective in preventing or treating AKI. However, the evidence accumulated so far is not strong enough to demonstrate ANP’s beneficial effects. The next step is to elucidate the effects of low-dose ANP by conducting multicenter, high-quality, large-sample RCTs. Trial registration PROSPERO registry CRD42017068568. Registered 20 June 2017.

Abstract
Numerous strategies have been evaluated to prevent early CSA-AKI. Although correction of hemodynamic problems is paramount, there are no clinical studies that compare different hemodynamic management or monitoring strategies with regard to their effect on kidney function. Pharmacologic strategies including diuretics, different classes of vasodilators and drugs with anti-inflammatory effects such as N-acetyl-cysteine, do not appear to be effective. Most of the studies are underpowered and use physiological rather than clinical endpoints. Further trials are warranted with fenoldopam and nesiritide (rhBNP). Observational and underpowered randomized studies show beneficial renal effects of off-pump technique and avoidance of aortic manipulation. There is very limited evidence for preoperative fluid loading and preemptive RRT. Potentially nephrotoxic agents should be used with caution in patients at risk of CSA-AKI. Tranexamic acid or aminocaproic acid should be preferred over aprotinin. No pharmacologic intervention has been adequately tested in the prevention of late CSA-AKI. A single-center study, including a predominance of patients after cardiac surgery, showed a decrease of kidney injury with tight glycemic control.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious postoperative complication following cardiac surgery. Despite the incidence of AKI requiring temporary renal replacement therapy being low, it is nonetheless associated with high morbidity and mortality. Therefore, preventing AKI associated with cardiac surgery can dramatically improve outcomes in these patients. The pathogenesis of AKI is multifactorial and many attempts to prevent or treat renal injury have been met with limited success. In this article, we will discuss the incidence and risk factors for cardiac surgery associated AKI, including the pathophysiology, potential biomarkers of injury, and treatment modalities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Acute kidney injury is a common complication after aortic surgery. Carperitide, a human atrial natriuretic peptide, was reported to be effective for preventing acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery. However, most studies were from single centers, and results of meta-analyses are subject to publication bias. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether carperitide preserved renal function in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Participating hospitals (N = 281) in a national database from 2010 to 2013. PARTICIPANTS Adult patients (N = 47,032) who underwent cardiovascular surgery. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The main intervention variable investigated was the use of carperitide on the day of surgery. Assessed outcomes included receiving renal replacement therapy within 21 days of surgery and in-hospital mortality. Data were available for 47,032 patients, of whom 2,186 (4.6%) received carperitide on the day of surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that carperitide was significantly associated with a greater likelihood of receiving renal replacement therapy within 21 days of surgery, but not with in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery, carperitide significantly increased the odds of receiving renal replacement therapy within 21 days after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) after surgery is associated with an increased risk of adverse events and death. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) dilates the preglomerular renal arteries and inhibits the renin-angiotensin axis. A low-dose ANP infusion increases glomerular filtration rate after cardiovascular surgery, but it is not known whether it reduces the incidence of AKI or the mortality rate. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether an intravenous ANP infusion prevents AKI in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery requiring hypothermic circulatory arrest. DESIGN A randomised controlled study. SETTING Operating room and intensive care unit at Kawasaki Saiwai Hospital, Kanagawa, Japan. PATIENTS Forty-two patients with normal preoperative renal function undergoing elective repair of an aortic arch aneurysm. INTERVENTION Patients were assigned randomly to receive a fixed dose of ANP (0.0125 μg (-1) kg(-1) min) or placebo. The infusion was started after induction of anaesthesia and continued for 24 h postoperatively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary end-point was the incidence of AKI within 48 h after surgery. RESULTS AKI developed in 30% of patients who received ANP compared with 73% of patients who received placebo (P = 0.014). Intraoperative urine output was almost 1 l greater in patients who received ANP (1865 ± 1299 versus 991 ± 480 ml in the control group, P = 0.005). However, there were no differences in mean arterial pressure or number of episodes of hypotension between the groups. Length of hospital and intensive care stays were not significantly different, nor was there a difference in 30-day mortality. No patients required haemodialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy. CONCLUSION We found that an intravenous infusion of ANP at 0.0125 μg kg(-1) min(-1) is an effective intervention for reducing the incidence of postoperative AKI, and appears to afford a degree of renal protection during and after cardiovascular surgery.

Abstract
Post-cardiac surgery acute kidney injury (AKI) is common and is associated with a significant increase in morbidity and mortality. We aimed to systematically review randomised trials that assessed the renoprotective utility of pharmacological agents in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. We searched PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for randomised controlled trials comparing renoprotective pharmacological interventions with control in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. We extracted data for mortality, need for renal replacement therapy (RRT), incidence of AKI, and creatinine clearance at 24-48 h. About 49 randomised controlled trials involving 4605 patients were included. Pharmacological interventions included dopamine, fenoldopam, calcium channel antagonists, natriuretic peptides, diuretics, and N-acetylcysteine. Most trials were of poor quality, with small sample sizes, under-reporting of randomisation procedure, allocation concealment and method of blinding. No pharmacological intervention significantly reduced mortality. Fenoldopam and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) reduced the need for renal replacement therapy by 5% (NNT 20, 95% CI 11.3, 83.0) and 3.5% (NNT 29, 95% CI 17.1, 84.4), respectively. Brain Natriuretic Peptide resulted in a 10% reduction in the incidence of AKI (NNT 11, 95% CI 6.2, 32.0). Dopamine caused a significant reduction in creatinine clearance (-4.26 ml/min, 95% CI -7.14, -1.39). The quality of studies that have assessed pharmacological renoprotective agents in cardiac surgery is generally poor. Fenoldopam, ANP and BNP show evidence of renoprotection. Randomised studies evaluating the effect of novel renoprotective agents that are powered to detect clinically relevant differences in outcomes are required.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiovascular surgery is a common disease process and is associated with both morbidity and mortality. The aim of our study was to evaluate the cardiovascular and renal effects of an atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP, carperitide) and a B-type (or brain) natriuretic peptide (BNP, nesiritide) for preventing and treating AKI in cardiovascular surgery patients. METHODS Electronic databases, including PubMed, EMBASE and references from identified articles were used for a literature search. RESULTS Data on the infusion of ANP or BNP in cardiovascular surgery patients was collected from fifteen randomized controlled trials and combined. The infusion of ANP or BNP increased the urine output and creatinine clearance or glomerular filtration rate, and reduced the use of diuretics and the serum creatinine levels. A meta-analysis showed that ANP infusion significantly decreased peak serum creatinine levels, incidence of arrhythmia and renal replacement therapy. The meta-analysis also showed that ANP or BNP infusion significantly decreased the length of ICU stay and hospital stay compared with controls. However, the combined data were insufficient to determine how ANP or BNP infusion during the perioperative period influences long-term outcome in cardiovascular surgery patients. CONCLUSIONS The infusion of ANP or BNP may preserve postoperative renal function in cardiovascular surgery patients. A large, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial will have to be performed to assess the therapeutic potential of ANP or BNP in preventing and treating AKI in the cardiovascular surgical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute renal failure (ARF) is a common condition in hospitalized patients. Research has been unable to identify the optimal target for therapeutic intervention; hence, effective prevention of and/or treatment for ARF remain elusive. OBJECTIVE To examine the usefulness of current and potential pharmacologic treatments in seriously ill, hospitalized patients. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE search (1996-June 2002) was conducted using the search terms kidney (drug effects) and acute kidney failure (drug therapy). Bibliographies of selected articles were also examined to include all relevant investigations. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Review articles, meta-analyses, and clinical trials describing prevention of and treatment for hospital-acquired ARF were identified. Results from prospective, controlled trials were given priority when available. CONCLUSIONS Appropriate management of ARF includes prospective identification of at-risk patients, fluid administration, and optimal hemodynamic support. Drug treatments, including low-dose dopamine and diuretics, have demonstrated extremely limited benefits and have not been shown to improve patient outcome. Experimental agents influence cellular processes of renal dysfunction and recovery; unfortunately, relatively few drugs show promise for the future.

Abstract
Acute renal failure continues to complicate the postoperative courses of our vascular and cardiac surgical patients, dramatically increasing mortality and decreasing quality of life when it occcurs. In spite of better understanding of the disease, few gains have been made in its prevention. We review its pathophysiology and discuss the most recent developments that may eventually lead to perioperative renal protection.
