Fermented Ophiocordyceps sinensis mycelium products for preventing contrast-associated acute kidney injury: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials. Ren Fail 2024; 46:2300302. [PMID: 38189088 PMCID: PMC10776043 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2023.2300302] [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: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the efficacy, effectiveness and safety of fermented Ophiocordyceps sinensis mycelium (FOSM) products for preventing contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI). METHODS Randomized controlled trials were searched from four Chinese and four English electronic databases and three clinical trial registries up to July 2023. Methodological quality was assessed by using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool 2.0. Risk difference (RD) or risk ratio (RR) and mean difference (MD) were calculated along with the 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Fourteen trials testing three types of FOSM products (Bailing, Zhiling, and Jinshuibao capsules) involving 1271 participants injected contrast agents were included. For the risk of bias, all trials were rated as some concerns. Compared with routine preventive procedure (RPP) (saline hydration and alprostadil), FOSM products plus RPP showed beneficial effects in reducing the incidence of CA-AKI (14.62% and 5.35%, respectively; RD -0.06, 95% CI -0.09 to -0.03). Subgroup analysis showed that Bailing/Jinshuibao plus RPP demonstrated lower incidence of CA-AKI compared to RPP. However, there was no statistically significant difference between Zhiling with RPP and RPP in the incidence of CA-AKI. Additionally, only when FOSM products were taken before injection of the contrast, it was superior to RPP in reducing the incidence of CA-AKI. There was no statistical difference in adverse events between these two groups. CONCLUSIONS Low certainty evidence suggests that preventive oral use of FOSM products as an adjuvant agent was safe and might decrease the incidence of CA-AKI. However, high-quality placebo-controlled trials are needed to confirm its benefit.

Effect of Frequent Computed Tomography Examinations with Contrast Media on the Renal Function of Patients with Oral Squamous Cell Cancer and an Evaluation of Risk Factors for Post-Operative Chronic Kidney Disease. J Maxillofac Oral Surg 2024; 23:824-830. [PMID: 39118931 PMCID: PMC11303357 DOI: 10.1007/s12663-023-02015-1] [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: 02/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This retrospective study aimed to investigate the effect of frequent computed tomography (CT) examinations with contrast media on the renal function of patients with oral squamous cell cancer (OSCC) that underwent radical surgery, by using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR); to identify risk factors of occurrence of post-operative chronic kidney disease (CKD) in these patients; and to explore the relationship between risk factors and occurrence of postoperative CKD during follow-up. Methods Herein, 188 patients (107 male; 81 female) who underwent radical surgery for OSCC were included. We evaluated the risk factors for postoperative CKD after treatment, including demographic, perioperative, and postoperative factors by univariate and multivariate analyses. Patients were divided into post-operative CKD and control groups based on eGFR evaluation. Overall survival (OS) rates were compared between the groups. Results eGFR decreased over time after treatment in both patient groups. Postoperative CKD was diagnosed in 56 (29.8%) patients. The average number of contrast-enhanced CT examinations was not an independent risk factor for postoperative CKD. However, lower hemoglobin on hospital discharge [odds ratio (OR) = 0.53], lower eGFR on hospital discharge (OR = 0.84), and common use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (OR = 48.79) were significant risk factors associated with postoperative CKD. The control group was associated with a better OS than the postoperative CKD group; however, this difference was not significant. Conclusions Clinicians should pay close attention to these risk factor of post-operative CKD during the management of patients with OSCC that undergo radical surgery and frequent follow-up CT examinations with contrast media.

Abstract
The mitochondrial enzyme arginase-2 (Arg-2) is implicated in the pathophysiology of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). Therefore, Arg-2 represents a candid target for CI-AKI prevention. Here, layer-by-layer (LbL) assembled renal-targeting polymeric nanoparticles are developed to efficiently deliver small interfering RNA (siRNA), knockdown Arg-2 expression in renal tubules, and prevention of CI-AKI is evaluated. First, near-infrared dye-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) anionic cores are electrostatically coated with cationic chitosan (CS) to facilitate the adsorption and stabilization of Arg-2 siRNA. Next, nanoparticles are coated with anionic hyaluronan (HA) to provide protection against siRNA leakage and shielding against early clearance. Sequential electrostatic layering of CS and HA improves loading capacity of Arg-2 siRNA and yields LbL-assembled nanoparticles. Renal targeting and accumulation is enhanced by modifying the outermost layer of HA with a kidney targeting peptide (HA-KTP). The resultant kidney-targeting and siRNA loaded nanoparticles (PLGA/CS/HA-KTP siRNA) exhibit proprietary accumulation in kidneys and proximal tubular cells at 24 h post-tail vein injection. In iohexol-induced in vitro and in vivo CI-AKI models, PLGA/CS/HA-KTP siRNA delivery alleviates oxidative and nitrification stress, and rescues mitochondrial dysfunction while reducing apoptosis, thereby demonstrating a robust and satisfactory therapeutic effect. Thus, PLGA/CS/HA-KTP siRNA nanoparticles offer a promising candidate therapy to protect against CI-AKI.

Abstract
In recent decades, there has been considerable effort in investigating the clinical utility of renal Doppler measurements in both cardiovascular and renal disorders. In particular, a measure of renal arterial resistance, the renal resistive index (RRI), has been demonstrated to predict chronic kidney disease progression and acute kidney injury in different clinical settings. Furthermore, it is linked to a poorer prognosis in individuals suffering from chronic heart failure. Examining the renal venous flow through pulsed Doppler can offer additional insights into renal congestion and cardiovascular outcomes for these patients. This review seeks to summarize the existing data concerning the clinical significance of arterial and venous renal Doppler measurements across various cardiovascular and renal disease contexts.

Abstract
Purpose We investigated the impact of intravascular ultrasound guidance on reducing the incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Ninety-nine patients were enrolled in this prospective cohort who were not randomly assigned to angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention or intravascular ultrasound-guided percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients were hospitalized at the Vietnam National Heart Institute - Bach Mai Hospital between 2019 and 2020. Acute kidney injury incidence during hospitalization was the primary endpoint. Results A total of 99 patients were divided into two groups: the intravascular ultrasound-guided group (33 participants) and the angiography-guided group (66 participants). The mean ± SD contrast volume of each group was 95.2 ± 37.1 mL and 133.0 ± 36.0 mL for the ultrasound-guided and angiography-guided groups, with P < 0.0001. Intravascular imaging-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (IVUS-guided PCI) was associated with reduced acute kidney injury incidence during hospitalization: 0.0% vs. 12.12% and P = 0.049. Conclusions Intravascular ultrasound is a safe imaging tool that guides percutaneous coronary intervention and significantly reduces the rate of acute kidney injury compared to angiography alone. Patients who have a high chance of experiencing acute kidney injury benefit from using intravascular ultrasound.

Abstract
Polyoxotungstate nanoclusters have recently emerged as promising contrast agents for computed tomography (CT). In order to evaluate their clinical potential, in this study, we evaluated the in vitro CT imaging properties, potential toxic effects in vivo, and tissue distribution of monolacunary Wells-Dawson polyoxometalate, α2-K10P2W17O61.20H2O (mono-WD POM). Mono-WD POM showed superior X-ray attenuation compared to other tungsten-containing nanoclusters (its parent WD-POM and Keggin POM) and the standard iodine-based contrast agent (iohexol). The calculated X-ray attenuation linear slope for mono-WD POM was significantly higher compared to parent WD-POM, Keggin POM, and iohexol (5.97 ± 0.14 vs. 4.84 ± 0.05, 4.55 ± 0.16, and 4.30 ± 0.09, respectively). Acute oral (maximum-administered dose (MAD) = 960 mg/kg) and intravenous administration (1/10, 1/5, and 1/3 MAD) of mono-WD POM did not induce unexpected changes in rats' general habits or mortality. Results of blood gas analysis, CO-oximetry status, and the levels of electrolytes, glucose, lactate, creatinine, and BUN demonstrated a dose-dependent tendency 14 days after intravenous administration of mono-WD POM. The most significant differences compared to the control were observed for 1/3 MAD, being approximately seventy times higher than the typically used dose (0.015 mmol W/kg) of tungsten-based contrast agents. The highest tungsten deposition was found in the kidney (1/3 MAD-0.67 ± 0.12; 1/5 MAD-0.59 ± 0.07; 1/10 MAD-0.54 ± 0.05), which corresponded to detected morphological irregularities, electrolyte imbalance, and increased BUN levels.

Abstract
This study evaluated the role of the C-reactive protein (CRP)/albumin ratio (CAR) in estimating the probability of occurring contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after carotid artery angiography (CAAG). Patients (n = 410) who had CAAG for carotid artery stenosis (CAS) were included in this study. A spike in serum creatinine was used to define CIN within 72 h of the procedure (>.5 mg/dL or >25% above baseline). CAR was calculated by dividing the CRP by the albumin level. Patients with CIN had higher numbers of white blood cells (P = .002), numbers of neutrophils (P = .007), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios (P = .026), high-sensitivity CRP levels (P < .001), and CAR levels (P < .001) than those without CIN. They were also older (P < .001) and more likely to have diabetes mellitus (P = .006) and hypertension (P = .016). According to receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, the CAR value has a 75% sensitivity and a 68% specificity for identifying CIN at a cutoff of 1.8. Also, NLR and CRP predicted CIN with 71% sensitivity and 67% specificity, 71% sensitivity and 66% specificity at the best cutoff values of 1.96 and 7.91, respectively. According the present study, in patients with CAS, the development of CIN after CAAG is independently correlated with CAR at admission.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) has become the third leading cause of hospital-acquired kidney injury. A comprehensive analysis of the current state of research in the field of CI-AKI will help to reveal trends and hot topics in the field. To date, there are no published bibliometric analyses related to CI-AKI studies. Here, we analyze the relevant literature since the emergence of the concept and provide valuable insights. The literature was collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. The data were analyzed visually using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. We collected a total of 4775 papers, with the United States and Guangdong Acad Med Sci as the major publishing powers in terms of country/region and institution. J AM COLL CARDIOL was the journal with the most published and cocited articles. Cluster analysis showed that clinical trials are the current research hotspot. The areas of risk assessment, prevention strategies, risk factors, and vascular lesions have been popular in recent years. Research on the mechanism of injury in CI-AKI will be the focus of future research, which will be crucial to reduce the clinical incidence of CI-AKI. In summary, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of the development process in the field of CI-AKI and discusses future research directions based on the analysis of objective data from many studies on CI-AKI.

Abstract
Background Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is considered to be the third leading cause of hospital-acquired kidney injury. Current studies mostly suggest that contrast agents mainly harm renal tubular epithelial cells, but we hypothesized that the development of CI-AKI should be the result of the interaction of renal vascular and tubular injury. Methods First we constructed a CI-AKI mouse model and verified the success of the model by pathological injury and serum creatinine level. Immunohistochemistry, protein quantification and qRT-PCR were used to detect the location and level of expression of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the kidney. Then, we blocked the in vivo accumulation of NETs using GSK484 and DNase I and detected the expression of NETs and the damage of glomerular and peritubular capillaries. Results We first identified the presence of NETs in CI-AKI mice, and NETs were mainly accumulated in glomeruli and peritubular capillaries. The expression of NETs was positively correlated with the severity of CI-AKI kidney. After inhibition of NETs release or promotion of NETs degradation by drugs, renal vascular endothelial cell injury was reduced and renal pathological changes and creatinine levels were reversed in CI-AKI mice. In addition, inhibition of NETs reduced apoptosis and pyroptosis of renal cells and attenuated inflammation in vivo. Conclusion These findings suggest that NETs are involved in the development of CI-AKI by damaging glomerular and peritubular capillary endothelial cells. This study will provide a new strategy for clinical prevention and treatment of CI-AKI.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury(CI-AKI) is the third cause of AKI. Although tubular injury has been regarded as an important pathophysiology of CI-AKI, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, we found arginase2(ARG2) accumulated in the tubules of CI-AKI mice, and was upregulated in iohexol treated kidney tubular cells and in blood samples of CI-AKI mice and patients, accompanied by increased nitrosative stress and apoptosis. However, all of the above were reversed in ARG2 knockout mice, as evidenced by the ameliorated kidney dysfunction and the tubular injury, and decreased nitrosative stress and apoptosis. Mechanistically, HO-1 upregulation could alleviate iohexol or ARG2 overexpression mediated nitrosative stress. Silencing and overexpressing ARG2 was able to upregulate and downregulate HO-1 expression, respectively, while HO-1 siRNA had no effect on ARG2 expression, indicating that ARG2 might inhibit HO-1 expression at the transcriptional level, which facilitated nitrosative stress during CI-AKI. Additionally, CREB1, a transcription factor, bound to the promoter region of ARG2 and stimulated its transcription. Similar findings were yielded in cisplatin- or vancomycin-induced AKI models. Taken together, ARG2 is a crucial target of CI-AKI, and activating CREB1/ARG2/HO-1 axis can mediate tubular injury by promoting nitrosative stress, highlighting potential therapeutic strategy for treating CI-AKI.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), which can develop after procedures involving contrast agents, is a significant cause of patient morbidity and mortality. This study aims to investigate the role of pre-procedural pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) in predicting CIN development in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). A total of 1006 NSTEMI patients were included in the study. CIN was defined as an increase of at least 0.5 mg/dl or 25% in serum baseline creatinine level 72 h after the procedure. Patients were divided into two groups: those with and without CIN. NSTEMI patients who developed CIN, glucose level (P = .01), platelet count (P < .01), monocyte count (P < .001), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (P < .001), systemic immune inflammation index (SII) score (P < .001), and PIV (P < .001) were higher compared with those without CIN. In the multivariate analysis of all these parameters, the Odds ratios of PIV and SII were similar and slightly lower than NLR. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (ROC) showed a PIV cut-off value of 448.43 with a sensitivity of 83.1% and a specificity of 72.8% in patients with CIN. Our study demonstrated an independent relationship between PIV at admission and CIN development in NSTEMI patients.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the value of contrast volume/glomerular filtration ratio (Vc/eGFR ratio) and urine Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (uNGAL) in predicting the progression contract associated-acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients. Patients and Methods We examined 387 adult patients who had undergone planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We determined acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) using the criteria set by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO). We calculated the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the CKD-EPI formula based on serum creatinine levels. To determine the Vc/eGFR ratio, we considered the contrast medium volume and eGFR for each patient. Additionally, we measured urine NGAL levels using the ELISA method. Results The percentage of CA-AKI patients who developed CKD after planned PCI was 36.36%. Within the CA-AKI to CKD group, the Vc/eGFR ratio was 2.82, and uNGAL levels were significantly higher at 72.74 ng/mL compared to 1.93 ng/mL for Vc/eGFR ratio and 46.57 ng/mL for uNGAL in the recovery CA-AKI group. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). Diabetic mellitus, urine NGAL concentration, and Vc/eGFR ratio were found to be independent factors in the progression of CA-AKI to CKD. The Vc/eGFR ratio and uNGAL showed predictive capabilities for progressing CA-AKI to CKD with an AUC of 0.884 and 0.878, respectively. The sensitivity was 81.3% for both, while the specificity was 89.3% for Vc/eGFR ratio and 85.7% for uNGAL. Conclusion The Vc/eGFR ratio and uNGAL were good predictors for CA-AKI to CKD in planned PCI patients.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is the common hospitalized acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the diagnosis by serum creatinine might not be early enough. Currently, the roles of circulating mitochondria in CI-AKI are still unclear. Since early detection is crucial for treatment, the association between circulating mitochondrial function and CI-AKI was tested as a potential biomarker for detection of CI-AKI. Twenty patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. Blood and urine samples were obtained at the time of PCI, and 6, 24, 48 and 72 h after PCI. Plasma and urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were measured. Oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial function, mitochondrial dynamics and cell death were determined from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Forty percent of patients developed AKI. Plasma NGAL levels increased after 24 h after receiving contrast media. Cellular and mitochondrial oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and decreased mitochondrial fusion occurred at 6 h following contrast media exposure. Subgroup of AKI had higher %necroptosis cells and TNF-α mRNA expression than subgroup without AKI. Collectively, circulating mitochondrial dysfunction could be an early predictive biomarker for CI-AKI in CKD patients receiving contrast media. These findings provide novel strategies to prevent CI-AKI according to its pathophysiology.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate for the first time, that a discrete metal-oxo cluster α-/β-K6P2W18O62 (WD-POM) exhibits superior performance as a computed tomography (CT) contrast agent, in comparison to the standard contrast agent iohexol. A toxicity evaluation of WD-POM was performed according to standard toxicological protocols using Wistar albino rats. The maximum tolerable dose (MTD) of 2000 mg/kg was initially determined after oral WD-POM application. The acute intravenous toxicity of single WD-POM doses (1/3, 1/5, and 1/10 MTD), which are at least fifty times higher than the typically used dose (0.015 mmol W kg-1) of tungsten-based contrast agents, was evaluated for 14 days. The results of arterial blood gas analysis, CO-oximetry status, electrolyte and lactate levels for 1/10 MTD group (80% survival rate) indicated the mixed respiratory and metabolic acidosis. The highest deposition of WD-POM (0.6 ppm tungsten) was found in the kidney, followed by liver (0.15 ppm tungsten), for which the histological analysis revealed morphological irregularities, although the renal function parameters (creatinine and BUN levels) were within the physiological range. This study is the first and important step in evaluating side effects of polyoxometalate nanoclusters, which in recent years have shown a large potential as therapeutics and contrast agents.

Abstract
Contrast-enhanced medical imaging is commonly requested in clinical practice. Contrast media provide better differentiation of tissue enhancement, improves the soft tissue contrast resolution, and enhances the ability to study the physiology and function of the organs and/or systems. However, contrast media may cause complications, especially in patients with renal failure. This article discusses the use of contrast media in common imaging modalities and the relationship between contrast media and renal function. Administration of iodinated contrast media in computed tomography may cause contrast-associated acute kidney injury; the risk factors and preventive strategies for this are elaborated in this article. Administration of gadolinium-based contrast media in magnetic resonance imaging may lead to nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. Therefore, precautions should be taken when planning for medical imaging for patients with pre-existing acute kidney injury or end-stage chronic kidney disease, for whom contrast media administration in computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging may be relatively contraindicated. Alternatively, ultrasound contrast agents can be safely used in patients with acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease. Clinical teams should discuss these patients with radiologists, taking into account the risk-benefits of contrast media, to determine the optimal imaging protocol or modality to answer the clinical query.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is known to be a complication of using intravascular contrast injection. Unfortunately, it is associated with adverse outcomes such as prolonged length of hospitalization and increased burden of health care costs. So, we aimed to determine the efficacy of febuxostat in the prevention of contrast-induced acute kidney injury among patients with chronic kidney disease Stage 3 performing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS In a randomized controlled trial we enrolled 120 CKD stage 3 Patients with acute coronary syndrome referred to the cardiology department Ain-Shams University hospital for performing PCI and stenting. Patients were randomly assigned to two arms: Group I (study group): Included 60 patients who received Febuxostat added to the traditional treatment (IV hydration and N-acetylcysteine). The patients received Feburic 80 mg within 6-18 h before and within 6-18 h after the coronary intervention (a time gap of 24 h between two doses). Group II (control group): included 60 patients who received only traditional treatment. RESULTS The incidence of AKI was higher in the control group with a statistically significant difference. We found that Independent Significant risk factors that led to AKI were febuxostate avoidance, DM, high urea level, high creatinine level, CKD stage 3B, high Mehran score and high AKI risk. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that febuxostat has a Reno protective effect and it can help to reduce the incidence CI-AKI in CKD patients stage 3 performing PCI.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), a pathological condition resulting from prolonged cessation and subsequent restoration of blood flow to a tissue, is an inevitable consequence of solid organ transplantation. Current organ preservation strategies, such as static cold storage (SCS), are aimed at reducing IRI. However, prolonged SCS exacerbates IRI. Recent research has examined pre-treatment approaches to more effectively attenuate IRI. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), the third established member of a family of gaseous signaling molecules, has been shown to target the pathophysiology of IRI and thus appears to be a viable candidate that can overcome the transplant surgeon's enemy. This review discusses pre-treatment of renal grafts and other transplantable organs with H2S to mitigate transplantation-induced IRI in animal models of transplantation. In addition, ethical principles of pre-treatment and potential applications of H2S pre-treatment in the prevention of other IRI-associated conditions are discussed.

Abstract
Background Although prognostic nutritional index (PNI) has been frequently applied in patients with malignancy or those during postoperative recovery, whether it is also an optimal indicator of the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients receiving coronary angiography remains uncertain. This meta-analysis aimed at investigating the clinical association of PNI with the risk of CIN in patients receiving coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, and Google scholar were searched for studies until January 2023. The relationship between CIN risk and PNI (i.e., low vs. high) (primary outcome) as well as other variables (secondary outcomes) were analyzed using a random-effects model. Results Overall, 10 observational studies with 17,590 patients (pooled incidence of CIN: 18%) were eligible for analysis. There was a higher risk of CIN in patients with a low PNI compared to those with a high PNI [odd ratio (OR) = 3.362, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.054 to 5.505, p < 0.0001, I 2 = 89.6%, seven studies, 12,972 patients, certainty of evidence: very low]. Consistently, a lower PNI was noted in patients with CIN compared to those without (Mean difference = -5.1, 95% CI: -6.87 to -3.33, p < 0.00001, I 2 = 96%, eight studies, 15,516 patients, certainty of evidence: very low). Other risks of CIN included diabetes and hypertension, while male gender and the use of statins were associated with a lower risk of CIN. Patients with CIN were older, had a higher creatinine level, and received a higher contrast volume compared to those without. On the other hand, pre-procedural albumin, estimated glomerular filtration rate, ejection fraction, hemoglobin, lymphocyte ratio were found to be lower in patients with CIN than in those without. Conclusion This meta-analysis highlighted an inverse association of PNI with the risk of CIN, which required further studies for verification.

Abstract
CONTEXT The risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is increasing and the harm is great. Quercetin is the main active component in Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik (Malvaceae) and was reported to reduce the expression of HIF-1α. OBJECTIVE We investigate whether quercetin improves the CI-AKI through the HIF-1α/lncRNA NEAT1/HMGB1 pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS HK-2 cells were treated with iohexol (200 mg/mL) for 6 h to establish a CI-AKI model. Quercetin (20 μM) was administered to CI-AKI cells cultured in dishes for 24 h. Cell morphology was observed by a fluorescence microscope. MTT and TUNEL assays were used to detect cell survival rate and apoptosis. Relative mRNA levels were measured by qRT-PCR. Protein levels were detected using western blotting. IL-6 and TNF-α protein levels were tested by Elisa assay. Targeting binding sites of HIF-1α and lncRNA NEAT1 were detected by luciferase assay. RESULTS The IC50 value of quercetin was 163.25 μM. The expression levels of HIF-1α, lncRNA NEAT1 and HMGB1 were upregulated in the CI-AKI cell model. Quercetin diminished cell injury and apoptosis via inhibiting HIF-1α. Silencing of HIF-1α targeting lncRNA MEAT1 diminished cell injury and apoptosis. Silencing lncRNA NEAT1 has the same effect via suppressing HMGB1 expression. Collectively, quercetin diminished cell injury and apoptosis in CI-AKI cell model via the inhibition of HIF-1α on lncRNA NEAT1/HMGB1 signalling pathway. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Quercetin diminished cell injury and apoptosis in CI-AKI cell mode via the inhibition of HIF-1α on the lncRNA NEAT1/HMGB1 signalling pathway, offering a potential novel therapeutic target for CI-AKI therapy.

Protective effect of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide against contrast-induced nephropathy in elderly acute myocardial infarction patients: A randomized controlled trial. World J Clin Cases 2022; 10:12221-12229. [PMID: 36483837 PMCID: PMC9724537 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i33.12221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing reports have demonstrated that recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) can improve acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and heart failure. However, whether it can improve renal function and decrease the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in elderly AMI patients is still unclear.
AIM To explore the effect of rhBNP on CIN in elderly AMI patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
METHODS One hundred and thirty-one elderly AMI patients underwent PCI from January 2017 to July 2021. Patients were either given 1 mL of 0.9% normal saline/(kg/h) for 72 h after PCI (control group, n = 66) and or intravenous rhBNP [1.5 mg/kg followed by 0.0075 mg/(kg/min)] for 72 h (rhBNP treatment group, n = 65). Serum creatinine and cystatin C levels, creatinine clearance rate, and eGFR were measured at 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after PCI. Research nurses collected data on handwritten forms, and then stored them in password-protected electronic databases.
RESULTS The creatinine clearance rate and eGFR were increased, while the creatinine and cystatin C levels were decreased significantly in the rhBNP treatment group compared to the control group at 48 h and 72 h. The incidence of CIN (P = 0.028) and acute heart failure (P = 0.017) also significantly decreased in the rhBNP group. No significant difference was noted between the two groups in cardiac death and recurrent AMI.
CONCLUSION Early application of rhBNP could protect renal function and decrease the incidence of CIN after primary PCI and acute heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI) following coronary procedures is a common cause of renal impairment in hospitalized patients, curcuminoids exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions and have shown positive effects on renal hemodynamic protection The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of curcuminoids in the prevention of PC-AKI in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. METHODS This study was a single-center, prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in patients with CKD undergoing elective coronary angiography (CAG) at Vajira Hospital from October 2018 to March 2019. Patients were randomized to receive curcuminoids at 1500 mg per day 3 days before and 2 days after the procedure or placebo. The primary outcome was the development of PC-AKI, and the secondary outcomes were overall acute kidney injury (AKI) incidence within 7 days after CAG, changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), interleukin-6 (IL-6), high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and other adverse events. RESULTS Sixty patients were enrolled in this study (30 in the curcuminoid group and 30 in the control group). AKI developed in 5 patients in the control group but not in the curcuminoid group (16.67% vs 0%, P = .052). that curcuminoids could preserve changes in eGFR compared to the placebo group (-1.5 vs 2.5 mL/min/1.73 m2, P value <.001 within 48 hours and -4 vs 1 mL/min/1.73 m2, P value 0.002 within 7 days). However, the hs-CRP and IL-6 levels did not differ between the groups. No serious adverse events were observed in either of the groups. CONCLUSION Prophylactic administration of curcuminoids, in addition to standard treatment, reduces the incidence of PC-AKI in patients with CKD undergoing elective CAG.

Abstract
Robotic magnetic manipulation systems offer a wide range of potential benefits in medical fields, such as precise and selective manipulation of magnetically responsive instruments in difficult-to-reach vessels and tissues. However, more preclinical/clinical studies are necessary before robotic magnetic interventional systems can be widely adopted. In this study, a clinically translatable, electromagnetically controllable microrobotic interventional system (ECMIS) that assists a physician in remotely manipulating and controlling microdiameter guidewires in real time, is reported. The ECMIS comprises a microrobotic guidewire capable of active magnetic steering under low-strength magnetic fields, a human-scale electromagnetic actuation (EMA) system, a biplane X-ray imaging system, and a remote guidewire/catheter advancer unit. The proposed ECMIS demonstrates targeted real-time cardiovascular interventions in vascular phantoms through precise and rapid control of the microrobotic guidewire under EMA. Further, the potential clinical effectiveness of the ECMIS for real-time cardiovascular interventions is investigated through preclinical studies in coronary, iliac, and renal arteries of swine models in vivo, where the magnetic steering of the microrobotic guidewire and control of other ECMIS modules are teleoperated by operators in a separate control booth with X-ray shielding. The proposed ECMIS can help medical physicians optimally manipulate interventional devices such as guidewires under minimal radiation exposure.

The Incidence and Associated Risk Factors of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography in the Emergency Setting: A Systematic Review. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12060826. [PMID: 35743857 PMCID: PMC9224719 DOI: 10.3390/life12060826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Iodinated contrast media (ICM) during contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in the emergency department (ED) is essential to diagnose acute conditions, despite risks of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) development and its associated complications. This systematic review aims to evaluate the incidence of CIN and CIN-induced complications, and to explore the relevance of classical risk factors for CIN among ED patients receiving ICM. PubMed, Cochrane, and Web of Science were used on 30 August 2021 to search for peer-reviewed English articles reporting on CIN incidence among ED patients aged ≥18 years who underwent an intravenous CECT. The inclusion criteria included studies that were in English, peer-reviewed, and involved ED patients aged ≥18 years who underwent single intravenous CECT. Studies on intra-arterial procedures and preventive strategies, meta-analyses, clinical guidelines, review articles, and case reports were excluded. The JBI critical appraisal checklist was applied to assess the risk of bias. In total, 18 studies were included wherein 15 were retrospective studies while three were prospective studies. We found a relatively higher CIN incidence in the ED, with variations owing to the CIN definitions. Several classical risk factors including acute hypotension remain linked to CIN onset in ED settings unlike factors such as age and diabetes. While risk of adverse renal events due to CIN is low, there is higher risk of CIN-induced mortality in the ED. Therefore, with the higher incidence of CIN and CIN-induced mortality rates in the ED, ICM administration during CECT in the ED should still be clinically justified after assessing both benefits and risks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Computerised tomographic (CT) peritoneography is performed on peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to identify peritoneal boundary defects, dialysate maldistributions and loculated fluid collections. Iodinated contrast media are added to dialysate and infused through the dialysis catheter, and CT images are obtained. Chemical compatibility of contrast media with dialysis solutions has not been studied. In some institutions, pharmacists charged with oversight of compounded sterile preparations have placed a moratorium on the use of contrast media-dialysate mixtures until compatibility data become available. This study was undertaken to examine the compatibility of non-ionic iodinated contrast agents added to PD solution for the performance of CT peritoneography. METHODS 100 mL of three non-ionic iodinated contrast agents, iopamidol 370 mgI/mL, iohexol 300 mgI/mL and iodixanol 320 mgI/mL, were mixed with 2 L 1.5% dextrose PD solution and stored at 2-8°C, 25°C and 40°C. Observations at predefined intervals were made over 5 days for visual appearance, turbidity, pH, drug concentration and chemical degradation. RESULTS Iopamidol, iohexol and iodixanol were stable for 5 days under study conditions. The contrast-dialysate mixture remained clear and colourless, no turbidity changes observed, pH and drug concentrations were stable and no increase in existing impurities or new impurities were detected. CONCLUSIONS The addition of commonly used non-ionic iodinated contrast agents to 1.5% dextrose dialysis solution is chemically stable, meeting the criteria set forth in the standards and guidelines of the US Pharmacopeia and the Institute of Safe Medication Practices. A protocol for performing CT peritoneography is recommended herein to facilitate patient safety and diagnostic reliability of the imaging study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The low-tube-voltage scan generally needs a higher tube current than the conventional 120 kVp to maintain the image noise. In addition, the low-tube-voltage scan increases the photoelectric effect, which increases the radiation absorption in organs. PURPOSE To compare the organ radiation dose caused by iodine contrast medium between low tube voltage with low contrast medium and that of conventional 120-kVp protocol with standard contrast medium. MATERIAL AND METHODS After the propensity-matching analysis, 66 patients were enrolled including 33 patients with 120 kVp and 600 mgI/kg and 33 patients with 80 kVp and 300 mgI/kg (50% iodine reduction). The pre- and post-contrast phases were assessed in all patients. The Monte Carlo simulation tool was used to simulate the radiation dose. The computed tomography (CT) numbers for 10 organs and the organ doses were measured. The organ doses were normalized by the volume CT dose index, and the 120-kVp protocol was compared with the 80-kVp protocol. RESULTS On contrast-enhanced CT, there were no significant differences in the mean CT numbers of the organs between 80-kVp and 120-kVp protocols except for the pancreas, kidneys, and small intestine. The normalized organ doses at 80 kVp were significantly lower than those of 120 kVp in all organs (e.g. liver, 1.6 vs. 1.9; pancreas, 1.5 vs. 1.8; spleen, 1.7 vs. 2.0) on contrast-enhanced CT. CONCLUSION The low tube voltage with low-contrast-medium protocol significantly reduces organ doses at the same volume CT dose index setting compared with conventional 120-kVp protocol with standard contrast medium on contrast-enhanced CT.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The present study investigated the role of systemic immune inflammation index (SII) in predicting the risk of developing CIN after carotid artery angiography (CAAG). This study included 262 patients who underwent CAAG for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis (CAS). Simultaneous carotid stenting was applied to 232 of these patients. CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine level ≥.5 mg/dL or ≥25% above baseline within 72 hours after the procedure. The SII score was calculated as platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte counts. Patients who developed CIN, had higher glucose (P = .009), total cholesterol (P < .001), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (<.001), and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (P = .001) levels, as well as greater neutrophil counts (P < .001), platelet counts (P < .001), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (P < .001), and SII score (P < .001) than those who did not develop CIN. The Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis showed that at a cutoff of 519.9, the SII exhibited 80% sensitivity and 64% specificity for detecting CIN. SII levels on admission were independently associated with CIN development after CAAG in patients with CAS.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an impairment of renal function that occurs after the administration of an iodinated contrast medium (CM). Kidney dysfunction in CIN is considered transient and reversible in most cases. However, it is the third most common cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, especially in high-risk patients. Diagnostic and interventional procedures that require intravascular CM are being used with increasing frequency, especially among the elderly, who can be particularly susceptible to CIN due to multiple comorbidities. Therefore, identifying the exact mechanisms of CIN and its associated risk factors is crucial not only to provide optimal preventive management for at-risk patients, but also to increase the feasibility of diagnostic and interventional procedure that use CM. CM induces kidney injury by impairing renal hemodynamics and increasing the generation of reactive oxygen species, in addition to direct cytotoxicity. Periprocedural hydration is the most widely accepted preventive strategy to date. Here, we review the latest research results on the pathophysiology and management of CIN.

Abstract
Objective. We aimed to explore the preventive effect of low-dose furosemide administration guided by left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) based on adequate hydration on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods. This parallel randomized clinical trial was conducted at a tertiary hospital in China. A total of 1053 consecutive patients (71.98% men) who underwent PCI at our hospital were enrolled. Pre-PCI plasma BNP levels were recorded. Patients enrolled received a continuous intravenous infusion of normal saline starting 4 h before PCI until 24 h after surgery. LVEDP was measured immediately after surgery. Patients in the control group received intravenous furosemide injection (20 mg). Patients in the experimental group received furosemide if they showed LVEDP ≥15 mmHg, a post-PCI BNP level ≥100 pg/mL, and/or a post-PCI BNP value > 150% of the pre-PCI value. The primary and secondary outcome measures were serum creatinine levels, glomerular filtration rate, and creatinine clearance rate measured before and after PCI. CIN incidence was compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to study the risk factors for CIN. Results. CIN incidence was significantly higher in the control group than in the experimental group (
). Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated LVEDP and BNP levels were risk factors. As LVEDP increased, the CIN incidence also increased (odds ratio (OR) 1.038, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.006–1.070). The OR of BNP was 1.001 (95% CI 1.000–1.002). Conclusions. Low-dose furosemide administration guided by LVEDP or BNP is superior to direct low-dose administration on the basis of adequate hydration during PCI. This trial is registered with ChiCTR-IOR-14005250

Abstract
PURPOSE High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and homocysteine (Hcy) play important roles in contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). We compared HMGB1 to Hcy as preprocedural predictors for CI-AKI in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients after percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). METHODS We included 257 eligible patients who were categorized into CI-AKI ( +) and CI-AKI ( -) group. The differences in clinical characteristics and biochemical indexes between two groups were analyzed. RESULTS We observed that thirty-eight (14.8%) of 257 eligible CAD patients developed CI-AKI. HMGB1 (14.65 [11.13-24.89] vs 10.88 [7.94-13.23], p < 0.001) and Hcy (14.07 [12.07-17.31] vs 12.09 [10.71-13.47], p < 0.001) increased significantly in CI-AKI ( +) group. Both age (r = 0.210, p = 0.001), serum creatinine (r = 0.509, p < 0.001), eGFR (r = - 0.459, p < 0.001) and Hcy (r = 0.531, p < 0.001) were significantly correlated with HMGB1. Among all patients, HMGB1 (OR 1.181, 95% CI 1.081-1.290, p < 0.001) and Hcy (OR 1.260, 95% CI 1.066-1.489, p = 0.007) were independent predictors for the development of CI-AKI. We built the propensity score matching (PSM) using 38 pairs of patients. After adjustment, HMGB1 (OR 1.169, 95% CI 1.035-1.322, p = 0.012) and Hcy (OR 1.457, 95% CI 1.064-1.997, p = 0.019) were also independent predictors for the development of CI-AKI. Both HMGB1 (AUC: 0.704, 95% CI: 0.588-0.819, p = 0.002) and Hcy (AUC: 0.708, 95% CI: 0.593-0.823, p = 0.002) had predictive values for CI-AKI. CONCLUSION There is a significant positive association between HMGB1 and Hcy in CAD patients. Both HMGB1 and Hcy are potential preprocedural predictors of CI-AKI after PCI.

Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a complication associated with the administration of contrast media (CM). The CIN diagnosis is based on creatinine, a biomarker late and insensitive. The objective proposed was to evaluate the ability of novel biomarkers to detect patients susceptible to suffering CIN before CM administration. The study was carried out with patients undergoing cardiac catheterization involving CM. Patients were divided into two groups: (1) CIN, patients who developed this pathology; (2) control, patients who did not suffer CIN. Prior to the administration of CM, urine samples were collected to measure proteinuria, N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1, albumin, transferrin, t-gelsolin and GM2 ganglioside activator protein (GM2AP). The risk factors advanced age, low body mass index and low estimated glomerular filtration rate; and the urinary biomarkers albumin, transferrin and GM2AP showed significant predictive capacity. Of all of them, albuminuria demonstrated the highest diagnostic power. When a cutoff point was established for albuminuria at values still considered subclinical (10–30 µg/mg Cru), it was found that there was a high incidence of CIN (40–75%). Therefore, albuminuria could be applied as a new diagnostic tool to prevent and predict CIN with P4 medicine criteria, independently of risk factors and comorbidities.

Fang D, Wang Y, Zhang Z, Yang D, Gu D, He B, Zhang X, He D, Wang H, Jose PA, Han Y, Zeng C. Calorie Restriction Protects against Contrast-Induced Nephropathy via SIRT1/GPX4 Activation. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:2999296. [PMID: 34712381 PMCID: PMC8548166 DOI: 10.1155/2021/2999296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Calorie restriction (CR) extends lifespan and increases resistance to multiple forms of stress, including renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, whether CR has protective effects on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) remains to be determined. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of CR on CIN and investigated the potential mechanisms. CIN was induced by the intravenous injection of iodinated contrast medium (CM) iopromide (1.8 g/kg) into Sprague Dawley rats with normal food intake or 40% reduced food intake, 4 weeks prior to iopromide administration. We found that CR was protective of CIN, assessed by renal structure and function. CM increased apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and inflammation in the renal outer medulla, which were decreased by CR. The silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) participated in the protective effect of CR on CIN, by upregulating glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a regulator of ferroptosis, because this protective effect was reversed by EX527, a specific SIRT1 antagonist. Our study showed that CR protected CIN via SIRT1/GPX4 activation. CR may be used to mitigate CIN.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the protective effect and mechanism of astaxanthin on the kidney of rats with contrast-induced acute kidney injury. METHODS Forty SD rats were randomly divided into five groups: Control group (CON); Astaxanthin control group (AST); Contrast media group (CM); Astaxanthin pre-treatment group (AST + CM); N-acetylcysteine pre-treatment group (NAC + CM), each group with eight rats. The rats were killed 72 h after the modeling, the blood supernatant and kidneys were collected, and then the serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels were measured; HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes in kidney tissue; TUNEL was used to detect apoptosis level in renal tubular epithelial cells; frozen section was used to observe the expression of ROS in renal tissue by reactive oxygen staining; the expression of NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, IL-1β, IL-18 were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot. RESULTS The CI-AKI rat model was induced by iohexol. Then the elevated level of ROS activated the inflammatory response mediated by NLRP3 inflammasome (NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1). Subsequently, the increase in renal tubular epithelial cell apoptosis caused the destruction of the pathological structure of the kidney and finally led to renal impairment. While after the pretreatment of astaxanthin, the level of ROS was decreased. The activation level of NLRP3 inflammasome and its mediated inflammatory response were alleviated significantly. Eventually, the level of renal tubular epithelial cell apoptosis and renal damage were significantly mitigated. CONCLUSION Astaxanthin can protect the kidney in CI-AKI by inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome-IL-1β/IL-18 through inhibition of the production of ROS.

Abstract
Contrast associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a controversial subject in the field of nephrology, cardiology, radiology and hospital medicine. Much has been written and published concerning the causes, risk factors, outcomes, and potential treatments to avoid the ultimate outcome of complete kidney failure requiring dialysis. Over the decades many proposed preventative strategies and treatments have failed to be produe a reliable outcome . Additionally, there is now asdf is now a growing discussion of the severity and sincerity of CA-AKI being a major entity to worry about for patients. We discuss the present state of CA-AKI and highlight potential risk factors and possible therapeutic interventions to minimize any impact a contrast procedure may have on a patient in order to maximize the medical care.

Abstract
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is an accelerated form of coronary artery disease that affects long‐term outcomes in heart transplant (HTx) patients. We prospectively evaluated the feasibility of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for the detection of CAV during clinical implementation at our center. All consecutive HTx patients >4 years post‐transplant were actively converted from myocardial perfusion imaging to CCTA for the annual assessment of CAV. Between February 2018 and May 2019, 129/172 (75%) HTx patients underwent a CCTA. Renal impairment (n = 21/43) was the most frequent reason for patients could not undergo CCTA. CCTA image quality was good–excellent in 118/129 (92%) patients, and the radiation dose was 2.1 (1.6–2.8) mSv. CCTA showed obstructive CAV in 19/129 (15%) patients. Thirteen (10%) patients underwent additional tests, of which 8 patients underwent coronary revascularization within 90 days of CCTA. After 1 year, 3 additional coronary angiograms were performed, resulting in one revascularization in a patient with known severe CAV who developed ventricular tachycardia. One myocardial infarction after coronary stenting and 2 non‐cardiac deaths were observed. CCTA can be successfully implemented for routine detection of CAV with good image quality and low radiation dose. CCTA allows CAV evaluation with the limited need for additional invasive testing.

Abstract
This study evaluated the impact of the baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on clinical and angiographic outcomes and long-term in-stent restenosis (ISR) rates in patients undergoing elective carotid artery stenting (CAS) procedures. Consecutive patients who underwent CAS were retrospectively enrolled (n = 456). At the end of 3 years of follow-up, patients who had died or were lost follow-up were excluded from the study and a final analysis was performed using data from the remaining 405 patients. The study population (n = 405) was divided into 3 tertiles based on the tertile values of the eGFR level (T1, T2, and T3); then, clinical and procedural characteristics and 3-year ISR rates were compared between the groups. An ISR of 50% was detected in 49 (12%) surviving patients. The 3-year ISR was higher among patients with the lowest eGFR values (T1) by 3.7 times (95% CI: 2.01-11.38) than that among patients with the highest eGFR values (T3). These significant relationships persisted following adjustment for confounders. A lower baseline eGFR level was significantly associated with an increased ISR rate. Decreased renal function may be a predictor of ISR after CAS using first-generation stents.

Abstract
We investigated whether the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) on admission is an independent risk factor that predicts the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 429 patients with NSTEMI were enrolled in the study. Contrast-induced nephropathy was defined as an increase in serum creatinine level of ≥0.5 mg/dL or ≥25% above baseline within 72 hour after the procedure. Patients were divided into 2 groups: with and without CIN. Demographics, clinical risk factors, angiographic and laboratory parameters, CIN incidence, and SII score were compared between the 2 groups. Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction patients, who developed CIN, had higher glucose levels (P = .009), neutrophil counts (P < .001), platelet counts (P < .001), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios (P < .001), high sensitivity C-reactive protein levels (P = .009), and SII levels (P < .001) than those who did not develop CIN. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that at a cutoff of 933.2, the value of SII exhibited 77.6% sensitivity and 69.2% specificity for detecting CIN. Our study showed that the SII levels on admission were independently associated with CIN development after PCI in patients with NSTEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carbon dioxide angiography with addition of optical coherence tomography imaging may improve procedural success and clinical outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease and chronic kidney disease. METHODS Single-center, retrospective analysis of patients with chronic kidney disease who underwent carbon dioxide angiography and optical coherence tomography-guided chronic total occlusion crossing and/or optical coherence tomography-guided directional atherectomy was performed. Patient and procedure-related characteristics, along with peri- and one-year post-procedural major adverse events, were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 18 vessels in 11 patients, with mean age 70 years were treated. All had co-morbidities such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, had history or were current smokers with baseline peripheral artery disease. Majority were diabetic with coronary disease (82%); 55% baseline chronic kidney disease IV, 55% Rutherford class III and 45% class IV. Contrast was used in only two patients. Mean total fluoroscopy time and radiation dose was 24.1 min and 249.2 mGY, respectively. Half of the lesions were femoro-popliteal chronic total occlusions, and Ocelot catheter was used to cross seven of nine chronic total occlusions and was successful in six. Adjunctive optical coherence tomography-guided directional atherectomy was performed in 8 of 11 patients. Only two adverse events occurred: one clinically significant event of slow-flow intra-procedurally and one target limb revascularization within one year of index procedure in a vessel different than prior treated. Optical coherence tomography imaging in both chronic total occlusion-crossing and atherectomy resulted in 10-min mean fluoroscopy reduction time and 32 mGY reduction in radiation dose. CONCLUSION Carbon dioxide angiography with the addition of optical coherence tomography imaging for chronic total occlusion crossing and/or optical coherence tomography-guided directional atherectomy reduced the need for contrast agents, total fluoroscopy time, and radiation exposure in patients with peripheral artery disease and baseline chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a severe complication caused by intravascular applied radial contrast media (CM). Pyroptosis is a lytic type of cell death inherently associated with inflammation response and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines following caspase-1 activation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effects of acetylbritannilactone (ABL) on iopromide (IOP)-induced acute renal failure and reveal the underlying mechanism. In vivo and in vitro, IOP treatment caused renal damage and elevated the caspase-1 (+) propidium iodide (PI) (+) cell count, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 levels, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and the relative expression of nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeat containing protein 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), and gasdermin D (GSDMD), suggesting that IOP induces AKI via the activation of pyroptosis. Furthermore, the pretreatment of ABL partly mitigated the CI-AKI, development of pyroptosis, and subsequent kidney inflammation. These data revealed that ABL partially prevents renal dysfunction and reduces pyroptosis in CI-AKI, which may provide a therapeutic target for the treatment of CM-induced AKI.

Abstract
Globally, acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant mortality and an enormous economic burden. Whereas iron is essential for metabolically active renal cells, it has the potential to cause renal cytotoxicity by promoting Fenton chemistry-based oxidative stress involving lipid peroxidation. In addition, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol), the active form of vitamin D, is reported to have an antioxidative role. In this study, we intended to demonstrate the impact of vitamin D on iron-mediated oxidant stress and cytotoxicity of Vero cells exposed to iohexol, a low osmolar iodine-containing contrast media in vitro. Cultured Vero cells were pretreated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 dissolved in absolute ethanol (0.05%, 2.0 mM) at a dose of 1 mM for 6 hours. Subsequently, iohexol was added at a concentration of 100 mg iodine per mL and incubated for 3 hours. Total cellular iron content was analysed by a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer at 372 nm. Lipid peroxidation was determined by TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive species) assay. Antioxidants including total thiol content were assessed by Ellman’s method, catalase by colorimetric method, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) by nitroblue tetrazolium assay. The cells were stained with DAPI (4
,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole), and the cytotoxicity was evaluated by viability assay (MTT assay). The results indicated that iohexol exposure caused a significant increase of the total iron content in Vero cells. A concomitant increase of lipid peroxidation and decrease of total thiol protein levels, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activity were observed along with decreased cell viability in comparison with the controls. Furthermore, these changes were significantly reversed when the cells were pretreated with vitamin D prior to incubation with iohexol. Our findings of this in vitro model of iohexol-induced renotoxicity lend further support to the nephrotoxic potential of iron and underpin the possible clinical utility of vitamin D for the treatment and prevention of AKI.

We evaluated the clinical impact of in-hospital bleeding events after transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) in the long-term follow- up. METHODS 586 consecutive patients treated with first-time TMVr were enrolled in this registry. In-hospital MVARC (Mitral Valve Academic Research Council) bleedings were assessed and patients were grouped according to the incidence of a bleeding event. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify significant independent predictors of MVARC bleeding. This study received approval by local ethics committee. RESULTS 78 patients (13.3%) suffered from an MVARC bleeding event (Access site-related bleedings: 46.2%; GI tract bleeding: 35.9%; Other bleedings: 17.9%). Among these bleeding subgroups, neither relevant differences in baseline characteristics nor in severity of bleeding events were observed. Despite not being an independent predictor for overall death in the multivariate Cox regression analysis, MVARC bleeding was associated with prolonged hospital stay. The ORBIT bleeding score was the best match to predictors of any MVARC bleeding found in our cohort (c-score overall cohort: 0.68; c-score GI bleeding cohort: 0.72). CONCLUSION MVARC bleedings after TMVr are frequent findings but were only in half of the cases related to the access site. The ORBIT score could be useful for identification of patients at high risk for non-access site bleeding and especially GI bleeding.

Long-Term Follow-Up of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury: A Study from a Developing Country. Int J Vasc Med 2021; 2020:8864056. [PMID: 33414964 PMCID: PMC7769673 DOI: 10.1155/2020/8864056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2020] [Revised: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 12/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a worldwide known complication related to the use of contrast media with either imaging or angiography; it carries its own complications and effect on both morbidity and mortality; early identification of patients at risk and addressing modifiable risk factors may help reducing risk for this disease and its complications. Methods This was a prospective observational study, where all patients admitted for cardiac catheterization between June 2015 and January 2016 were evaluated for CI-AKI. There were two study groups: contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) group, and noncontrast-induced acute kidney injury (non-CI-AKI) group. Results Patients (n = 202) were included and followed up for 4 years. Death and development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) need for another revascularization were the end points. The incidence of CI-AKI was 14.8%.In univariate analysis, age (P = 0.016) and serum albumin at admission (P = 0.001) were statistically significant predictors of overall death. Age (P = 0.002), HTN (P = 0.002), DM (P = 0.02), and the use of diuretics (P = 0.001) had a statistically significant impact on eGFR. The rate of recatheterization was not statistically significant between the two groups (61 (35.5%) for the non-CI-AKI vs. 12 (40%) for the other group; P = 0.63). Some inflammatory markers (NGAL P = 0.06, IL-19 P = 0.08) and serum albumin at admission P = 0.07 had a trend toward a statistically significant impact on recatheterization. Death (P = 0.66) and need for recatheterization (P = 0.63) were not statistically different between the 2 groups, while the rate of eGFR decline in for the CI-AKI was significant (P = 0.004). Conclusion CI-AKI is a common complication post percutaneous catheterization (PCI), which may increase the risk for CKD, but not death or the need for recatheterization. Preventive measures must be taken early to decrease the morbidity.

Abstract
Globally, acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant mortality and an enormous economic burden. Whereas iron is essential for metabolically active renal cells, it has the potential to cause renal cytotoxicity by promoting Fenton chemistry-based oxidative stress involving lipid peroxidation. In addition, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol), the active form of vitamin D, is reported to have an antioxidative role. In this study, we intended to demonstrate the impact of vitamin D on iron-mediated oxidant stress and cytotoxicity of Vero cells exposed to iohexol, a low osmolar iodine-containing contrast media in vitro. Cultured Vero cells were pretreated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 dissolved in absolute ethanol (0.05%, 2.0 mM) at a dose of 1 mM for 6 hours. Subsequently, iohexol was added at a concentration of 100 mg iodine per mL and incubated for 3 hours. Total cellular iron content was analysed by a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer at 372 nm. Lipid peroxidation was determined by TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive species) assay. Antioxidants including total thiol content were assessed by Ellman's method, catalase by colorimetric method, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) by nitroblue tetrazolium assay. The cells were stained with DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole), and the cytotoxicity was evaluated by viability assay (MTT assay). The results indicated that iohexol exposure caused a significant increase of the total iron content in Vero cells. A concomitant increase of lipid peroxidation and decrease of total thiol protein levels, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activity were observed along with decreased cell viability in comparison with the controls. Furthermore, these changes were significantly reversed when the cells were pretreated with vitamin D prior to incubation with iohexol. Our findings of this in vitro model of iohexol-induced renotoxicity lend further support to the nephrotoxic potential of iron and underpin the possible clinical utility of vitamin D for the treatment and prevention of AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE to demonstrate scientific evidence on incidence and factors associated with contrast-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS an integrative review carried out in the VHL, PubMed, VHL Regional Portal and SciELO databases, of articles published between 2014 and 2019. RESULTS the sample consisted of five original articles, two cohorts, two control cases and a clinical trial. The incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy ranged from 6% to 24%. It stands out among patients with advanced age, male gender, diabetes mellitus, systemic arterial hypertension, volume of contrast infused and osmolarity. Intravenous hydration, sodium bicarbonate, ascorbic acid and statin were important prophylactic agents. CONCLUSION this study envisioned the main risk factors for contrast-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and elucidated preventive measures that guide multidisciplinary health care aiming at a quality and safe care.

Efficacy and Safety of Nicorandil in Preventing Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Pooled Analysis of 1229 Patients. J Interv Cardiol 2020; 2020:4527816. [PMID: 32982608 PMCID: PMC7492920 DOI: 10.1155/2020/4527816] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2020] [Revised: 08/08/2020] [Accepted: 08/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Nicorandil in reducing contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an inconsistent practice. This article aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nicorandil in preventing CIN after elective PCI. Methods This is a pooled analysis of patients treated with elective PCI. The primary outcome was the incidence of CIN. The secondary outcomes were major adverse events, including mortality, heart failure, recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, and renal replacement therapy. Results A total of 1229 patients were recruited in our study. With statistical significance, nicorandil lowered the risk of CIN (odds ratio = 0.26; 95% confidence interval = 0.16–0.44; P < 0.00001; I2 = 0%) in patients who underwent elective PCI. In addition, no significant differences were observed in the incidence of mortality, heart failure, recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, and renal replacement therapy between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions Our article indicated that nicorandil could prevent CIN without increasing the major adverse events. Furthermore, sufficiently powered and randomized clinical studies are still needed in order to determine the role of nicorandil in preventing CIN after elective PCI.

Low Ejection Fraction Predisposes to Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after the Second Step of Staged Coronary Revascularization for Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9061812. [PMID: 32532038 PMCID: PMC7356857 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9061812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2020] [Revised: 05/30/2020] [Accepted: 06/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients who develop contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) are at an increased short-term and long-term risk of adverse cardiovascular (CV) events. Our aim was to search for patient characteristics associated with changes in serum creatinine and CIN incidence after each step of two-stage coronary revascularization in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing staged coronary angioplasty during hospitalization for AMI. We retrospectively analyzed medical records of 138 patients with acute myocardial infarction without hemodynamic instability, in whom two-stage coronary angioplasty was performed during the initial hospital stay. In-hospital serum creatinine levels were recorded before the 1st intervention (at admission), within 72 h after the 1st intervention (before the 2nd intervention), and within 72 h after the 2nd intervention. The incidence of CIN was 2% after the 1st intervention (i.e., primary angioplasty) and 8% after the 2nd intervention. Patients with significant left ventricular systolic dysfunction after the 1st intervention (ejection fraction (EF) ≤35%) exhibited higher relative rises in creatinine levels after the 2nd intervention (18 ± 29% vs. 2 ± 16% for EF ≤35% and >35%, respectively, p = 0.03), while respective creatinine changes after the 1st revascularization procedure were comparable (−1 ± 14% vs. 2 ± 13%, p = 0.4). CIN after the 2nd intervention was over five-fold more frequent in subjects with low EF (28% vs. 5%, p = 0.007). The association between low EF and CIN incidence or relative creatinine changes after the 2nd intervention was maintained upon adjustment for baseline renal function, major CV risk factors, and the use of renin-angiotensin axis antagonists prior to admission. In conclusion, low EF predisposes to CIN after second contrast exposure in patients undergoing two-stage coronary angioplasty during the initial hospitalization for AMI. Our findings suggest a need of extended preventive measures against CIN or even postponement of second coronary intervention in patients with significant left ventricular dysfunction scheduled for the second step of staged angioplasty.

Abstract
An 80-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with iron deficiency anemia and exertional chest pain. Coronary artery angiography showed 90% stenosis in the middle left anterior descending branch; abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes. Although his past medical history and results of imaging studies did not suggest intestinal stenosis, assessment of intestinal patency with the PillCam® patency capsule (tag-less PC) was performed. Thirty-three hours after administration, excretion of tag-less PC was not confirmed; an abdominal contrast-enhanced CT showed arrest of tag-less PC in the small bowel and thickening of the bowel wall, suggesting a small bowel tumor. Four days after administration of tag-less PC, he developed abdominal pain and vomiting. Intestinal obstruction was diagnosed by abdominal radiograph. A diagnosis of small bowel tumor with intestinal obstruction was made, and surgical resection was performed. The tumor was histologically an adenocarcinoma. It is necessary to carefully evaluate gastrointestinal patency before small intestine endoscopy especially in elderly people with reduced cardiopulmonary function and many underlying diseases.
