Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical syndrome, and one of the common comorbidities in the perioperative period. AKI can lead to complications in surgical patients and is receiving increasing attention in clinical workup. In recent years, the analysis of perioperative risk factors has become more in-depth and detailed. In this review, the definition, diagnosis, and pathophysiological characteristics of perioperative AKI are reviewed, and the main risk factors for perioperative AKI are analyzed, including advanced age, gender, certain underlying diseases, impaired clinical status such as preoperative creatinine levels, and drugs that may impair renal function such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NASIDs), ACEI/ARB, and some antibiotics. Injectable contrast agents, some anesthetic drugs, specific surgical interventions, anemia, blood transfusions, hyperglycemia, and malnutrition are also highlighted. We also propose potential preventive and curative measures, including the inclusion of renal risk confirmation in the preoperative assessment, minimization of intraoperative renal toxin exposure, intraoperative management and hemodynamic optimization, remote ischemic preadaptation, glycemic control, and nutritional support. Among the management measures, we emphasize the need for careful perioperative clinical examination, timely detection and management of AKI complications, administration of dexmedetomidine for renal protection, and renal replacement therapy. We aim that this review can further increase clinicians' attention to perioperative AKI, early assessment and intervention to try to reduce the risk of AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cystatin C (CysC) is a marker of kidney function that is relevant for the health and cognition of older adults. Little is known about the link between psychological factors and CysC. Therefore, the present study examined whether subjective age is related to CysC level and changes in CysC over time. METHOD Participants were 5,066 individuals drawn from the Health and Retirement Study aged from 50 to 107 years (60% women, mean age = 69.36 years, SD = 9.54). They provided data on subjective age, demographic covariates, and CysC at baseline. CysC was assessed again 4 years later. RESULTS Analysis revealed that an older subjective age was related to higher level of CysC at baseline and to an increase in CysC over 4 years, controlling for demographic factors. An older subjective age was also related to higher risk of exceeding the clinical threshold of CysC at baseline and 4 years later. Additional analysis revealed that disease burden, depressive symptoms, physical inactivity, and BMI partly mediated these associations. CONCLUSION The present study provides new evidence on the role of subjective age as a psychological factor associated with individuals' risk of kidney dysfunction, an association beyond chronological age.

Abstract
Iron is vital for a vast variety of cellular processes and its homeostasis is strictly controlled and regulated. Nevertheless, disorders of iron metabolism are diverse and can be caused by insufficiency, overload or iron mal-distribution in tissues. Iron deficiency (ID) progresses to iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) after iron stores are depleted. Inflammation is of diverse etiology in anemia of chronic disease (ACD). It results in serum hypoferremia and tissue hyperferritinemia, which are caused by elevated serum hepcidin levels, and this underlies the onset of functional iron-deficiency anemia. Inflammation is also inhibitory to erythropoietin function and may directly increase hepcidin level, which influences iron metabolism. Consequently, immune responses orchestrate iron metabolism, aggravate iron sequestration and, ultimately, impair the processes of erythropoiesis. Hence, functional iron-deficiency anemia is a risk factor for several ailments, disorders and diseases. Therefore, therapeutic strategies depend on the symptoms, severity, comorbidities and the associated risk factors of anemia. Oral iron supplements can be employed to treat ID and mild anemia particularly, when gastrointestinal intolerance is minimal. Intravenous (IV) iron is the option in moderate and severe anemic conditions, for patients with compromised intestinal integrity, or when oral iron is refractory. Erythropoietin (EPO) is used to treat functional iron deficiency, and blood transfusion is restricted to refractory patients or in life-threatening emergency situations. Despite these interventions, many patients remain anemic and do not respond to conventional treatment approaches. However, various novel therapies are being developed to treat persistent anemia in patients.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex syndrome defined by a decrease in renal function. The incidence of AKI has raised in the past decades, and it is associated with negative impact in patient outcomes in the short and long term. Considering the impact of AKI on patient prognosis, research has focused on methods to assess patients at risk for developing AKI, diagnose subclinical AKI, and on prevention and treatment strategies, for which it is crucial an understanding of pathophysiology the of AKI. In this review, we discuss the use of easily available parameters found in a complete blood count to detect patients at risk for developing AKI, to provide an early diagnosis of AKI, and to predict associated patient outcomes.

Renal resistive index as an indicator of the presence and severity of anemia and its future development in patients with hypertension. BMC Nephrol 2015; 16:45. [PMID: 25884723 PMCID: PMC4393622 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-015-0040-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2015] [Accepted: 03/25/2015] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined whether renal resistive index (RI), a simple index of renal vascular resistance, is associated with the presence and severity of anemia, and can predict the future development of anemia in patients with hypertension. METHODS We retrospectively examined 175 patients with hypertension (mean age 67 ± 11 years, 32-85 years, 134 males) who underwent renal ultrasonography. Anemia was defined as a reduction in the concentration of hemoglobin <13.0 g/dL for men and <12.0 g/dL for women. Renal RI was measured in the interlobar arteries. RESULTS Anemia was present in 37% of men and 34% of women. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 58 ± 23 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (median: 56 ml/min/1.73 m(2), range: 16-168 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) and the mean renal RI was 0.70 ± 0.09 (median: 0.70, range: 0.45-0.92). Proteinuria was present in 29% of patients. Both eGFR and renal RI correlated significantly with hemoglobin levels. In the stepwise multivariate linear regression analysis, renal RI was associated with hemoglobin levels independently of potential confounders including eGFR. During the follow-up period (median: 959 days, range: 7-3595 days), Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated that patients with renal RI above the median value had a higher incidence of the future development of anemia than other patients. Cox regression analysis showed that renal RI (hazard ratio 1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.37 per 0.05 rises in renal RI, p =0.03) and the presence of proteinuria were (hazard ratio 1.80, 95% CI 1.08-3.01, p =0.03) were independently associated with the future development of anemia after correcting for confounding factors. CONCLUSIONS Measurement of renal RI can be useful for elucidating the pathogenesis of anemia and for inferring its potential risk in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Several formulas for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation, based on serum creatinine or cystatin C, have been proposed. We assessed the impact of some of these equations on estimated GFR (eGFR) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) prevalence, and on the association with cardiovascular risk factors, in a general population sample characterized by a young mean age. METHODS We studied 1,199 individuals from three Alpine villages enrolled into the MICROS study. eGFR was obtained with the 4- and 6-parameter MDRD study equations, the Virga equation, and with the three CKD-EPI formulas for creatinine, cystatin C, and the combination of creatinine and cystatin C. We assessed the concordance between quantitative eGFR levels, CKD prevalence, and in terms of association with total, LDL, and HDL cholesterol. RESULTS The highest and lowest eGFR levels corresponded to the cystatin C-based and MDRD-4 equations, respectively. CKD prevalence varied from 1.8% (Virga) to 5.8% (MDRD-4). The CKD-EPI based on creatinine showed the highest agreement with all other equations. Agreement between methods was higher at lower eGFR levels, older age, and in the presence of diabetes and hypertension. Creatinine-based estimates of eGFR were associated with total and low-density lipoprotein but not high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The opposite was observed for the cystatin C-based GFR. CONCLUSION GFR estimation is strongly affected by the chosen equation. Differences are more pronounced in healthy and younger individuals. To identify CKD risk factors, the choice of the equation is of secondary importance to the choice of the biomarker used in the formula. If eGFR is not calibrated to a gold standard GFR in the general population, reports about CKD prevalence should be considered with caution.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious and common complication of major surgery. This narrative review focuses on the relationship between perioperative red blood cell transfusion and AKI after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Numerous observational studies have shown that these two factors are independently associated with each other. Several lines of evidence suggest that the nature of this association is one of cause and effect. The pathophysiological mechanism by which transfusions might harm the kidney has not been fully elucidated, but it is known that erythrocytes undergo irreversible morphological and biochemical changes during storage. As a result, after transfusion, they can promote a pro-inflammatory state, impair tissue oxygen delivery, and exacerbate tissue oxidative stress. This in turn can cause AKI in susceptible patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB, such as those with pre-existing kidney dysfunction or anaemia. Interventions aimed at avoiding perioperative blood transfusion might, therefore, reduce the risk of AKI after cardiac and other types of surgery.

Abstract
Introduction: The degree of glomerular filtration rate determines the stages of chronic renal disease and, therefore, knowledge on its estimation is essential. Aims: Two standardized creatinine based estimated glomerular filtration rate equations and five equations based on the immunoturbidimetric determination of cystatin C were compared. Methods: The distribution of the analytes and the equations, their relations, as well as the differences among the estimated glomerular filtration rates and their chronic kidney disease stages assignments were studied. Results: The equations based on cystatin C classified more patient into stage 1, while the creatinine based ones more into stages 2, 3 and 4. The equations published as Grubb1, Grubb2 and Larsson classified more patients while the equations created by Tan and Sjöström classified fewer into stage 5 compared to the creatinine based equations. The equations of Grubb1 and Grubb2 resulted in the most similar stage assignment. The occurence of stages between 3 and 5 was the lowest using the equation of Sjöström. Conclusions: The different equations for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate modify significantly the chronic kidney disease stage assignment which may have an influence on the treatment and outcome measures of the patients.
