Diagnostic and prognostic value of heparin-binding protein in sepsis: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e38525. [PMID: 38905400 PMCID: PMC11191987 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis remains a leading cause of death worldwide. In this context, heparin-binding protein (HBP) has emerged as a possible biomarker, drawing significant attention for its diagnostic and prognostic usefulness in septic patients. Despite this advancement, the literature yields conflicting results. This study is intended to critically evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of HBP in critically ill septic patients. METHODS We searched multiple databases, including PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and EBSCO, to identify relevant studies on April 27, 2023. We included studies investigating sepsis or its severe outcomes that reported HBP levels and the required data to create 2 × 2 tables. We used R version 4.2.2 and R Studio to analyze the pooled diagnostic accuracy outcomes. The diagmeta package was utilized to calculate the optimum cutoff value. RESULTS In our meta-analysis, we incorporated 28 studies including 5508 patients. The analysis revealed that HBP has a sensitivity of 0.71 (95% CI: 0.60; 0.79) and a specificity of 0.68 (95% CI: 0.51; 0.81) in diagnosing sepsis, respectively. HBP demonstrated moderate prognostic accuracy for mortality at a cutoff value of 161.415 ng/mL, with a sensitivity and specificity of 72%, and for severe sepsis outcomes at a cutoff value of 58.907 ng/mL, with a sensitivity and specificity of 71%. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate a relatively moderate diagnostic and prognostic accuracy of HBP for sepsis. Future studies are required to verify the accuracy of HBP as a biomarker for sepsis.

AKIML pred: An interpretable machine learning model for predicting acute kidney injury within seven days in critically ill patients based on a prospective cohort study. Clin Chim Acta 2024; 559:119705. [PMID: 38702035 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2024.119705] [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: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early recognition and timely intervention for AKI in critically ill patients were crucial to reduce morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to use biomarkers to construct a optimal machine learning model for early prediction of AKI in critically ill patients within seven days. METHODS The prospective cohort study enrolled 929 patients altogether who were admitted in ICU including 680 patients in training set (Jiefang Campus) and 249 patients in external testing set (Binjiang Campus). After performing strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, 421 patients were selected in training set for constructing predictive model and 167 patients were selected in external testing for evaluating the predictive performance of resulting model. Urine and blood samples were collected for kidney injury associated biomarkers detection. Baseline clinical information and laboratory data of the study participants were collected. We determined the average prediction efficiency of six machine learning models through 10-fold cross validation. RESULTS In total, 78 variables were collected when admission in ICU and 43 variables were statistically significant between AKI and non-AKI cohort. Then, 35 variables were selected as independent features for AKI by univariate logistic regression. Spearman correlation analysis was used to remove two highly correlated variables. Three ranking methods were used to explore the influence of 33 variables for further determining the best combination of variables. The gini importance ranking method was found to be applicable for variables filtering. The predictive performance of AKIMLpred which constructed by the XGBoost algorithm was the best among six machine learning models. When the AKIMLpred included the nine features (NGAL, IGFBP7, sCysC, CAF22, KIM-1, NT-proBNP, IL-6, IL-18 and L-FABP) with the highest influence ranking, its model had the best prediction performance, with an AUC of 0.881 and an accuracy of 0.815 in training set, similarly, with an AUC of 0.889 and an accuracy of 0.846 in validation set. Moreover, the performace was slightly outperformed in testing set with an AUC of 0.902 and an accuracy of 0.846. The SHAP algorithm was used to interpret the prediction results of AKIMLpred. The web-calculator of AKIMLpred was shown for predicting AKI with more convenient(https://www.xsmartanalysis.com/model/list/predict/model/html?mid=8065&symbol=11gk693982SU6AE1ms21). AKIMLpred was better than the optimal model built with only routine tests for predicting AKI in critically ill patients within 7 days. CONCLUSION The model AKIMLpred constructed by the XGBoost algorithm with selecting the nine most influential biomarkers in the gini importance ranking method had the best performance in predicting AKI in critically ill patients within 7 days. This data-driven predictive model will help clinicians to make quick and accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES To evaluate the impact of dexmedetomidine impact on cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI), kidney function, and metabolic and oxidative stress in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting with heart-lung machine support. METHODS A randomized double-masked trial with 238 participants (50-75 years) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting was conducted from January 2021 to December 2022. The participants were divided into Dex (n=119) and NS (n = 119) groups. Dex was administered at 0.5 mcg/kg over 10minutes, then 0.4 mcg/kg/h until the end of surgery; the NS group received equivalent saline. Blood and urine were sampled at various time points pre- and postsurgery. The primary outcome measure was the incidence of CSA-AKI, defined as the occurrence of AKI within 96hours after surgery. RESULTS The incidence of CSA-AKI was significantly lower in the Dex group than in the NS group (18.26% vs 32.46%; P=.014). Substantial increases were found in estimated glomerular filtration rate value at T4-T6 (P<.05) and urine volume 24hours after surgery (P<.01). Marked decreases were found in serum creatinine level, blood glucose level at T1-T2 (P<.01), blood urea nitrogen level at T3-T6 (P<.01), free fatty acid level at T2-T3 (P<.01), and lactate level at T3-T4 (P<.01). CONCLUSIONS Dex reduces CSA-AKI, potentially by regulating metabolic disorders and reducing oxidative stress.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is a prevalent disease in hospitalized patients and is continuously increasing worldwide. Various efforts have been made to define and classify acute kidney injury to understand the progression of this disease. Furthermore, deviations from structure and kidney function and the current diagnostic guidelines are not adequately placed due to baseline serum creatinine values, which are rarely known and estimated based on glomerular function rate, resulting in misclassification of acute kidney injury staging. Hence, the current guidelines are still developing to improve and understand the clinical implications of risk factors and earlier predictive biomarkers of acute kidney injury. Yet, studies have indicated disadvantages and limitations with the current acute kidney injury biomarkers, including lack of sensitivity and specificity. Therefore, the present narrative review brings together the most current evidenced-based practice and literature associated with the limitations of the gold standard for acute kidney injury diagnoses, the need for novel acute kidney injury biomarkers, and the process for biomarkers to be qualified for diagnostic use under the following sections and themes. The introduction section situates the anatomy and normal and abnormal kidney functions related to acute kidney injury disorders. Guidelines in providing acute kidney injury definitions and classification are then considered, followed by a discussion of the disadvantages of standard markers used to diagnose acute kidney injury. Characteristics of an ideal acute kidney injury biomarker are discussed concerning sensitivity, specificity, and anatomic location of injury. A particular focus on the role and function of emerging biomarkers is discussed in relation to their applications and significance to the prognosis and severity of acute kidney injury. Findings show emerging markers are early indicators of acute kidney injury prediction in different clinical settings. Finally, the process required for a biomarker to be applied for diagnostic use is explained.

Abstract
This article provides a thorough overview of the biomarkers, pathophysiology, and molecular pathways involved in the transition from acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) to chronic kidney disease (CKD). It categorizes the biomarkers of AKI into stress, damage, and functional markers, highlighting their importance in early detection, prognosis, and clinical applications. This review also highlights the links between renal injury and the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying AKI and AKD, including renal hypoperfusion, sepsis, nephrotoxicity, and immune responses. In addition, various molecules play pivotal roles in inflammation and hypoxia, triggering maladaptive repair, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune system reactions, and the cellular senescence of renal cells. Key signaling pathways, such as Wnt/β-catenin, TGF-β/SMAD, and Hippo/YAP/TAZ, promote fibrosis and impact renal function. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) triggers a cascade leading to renal fibrosis, with aldosterone exacerbating the oxidative stress and cellular changes that promote fibrosis. The clinical evidence suggests that RAS inhibitors may protect against CKD progression, especially post-AKI, though more extensive trials are needed to confirm their full impact.

Development and application of an amplified luminescent proximity homogeneous assay-linked immunosorbent assay for the accurate quantification of kidney injury molecule-1. Front Mol Biosci 2024; 10:1280681.

Abstract
Background: Kidney injury molecule-1 (Kim-1), a specific marker of kidney injury, is usually not expressed in normal kidneys or at very low levels but is highly expressed in injured renal tubular epithelial cells until the damaged cells recover completely. Therefore, we aimed to develop an efficient and highly sensitive assay to accurately quantify Kim-1 levels in human serum and urine. Methods: In this study, a novel immunoassay was developed and named amplified luminescent proximity homogeneous assay-linked immunosorbent assay (AlphaLISA). Anti-Kim-1 antibodies can be directly coupled to carboxyl-modified donor and acceptor beads for the rapid detection of Kim-1 by double-antibody sandwich method. Serum and urine samples for Kim-1 measurements were obtained from 129 patients with nephropathy and 17 healthy individuals. Results: The linear range of Kim-1 detected by AlphaLISA was 3.83-5000 pg/mL, the coefficients of variation of intra-assay and inter-assay batches were 3.36%-4.71% and 5.61%-11.84%, respectively, and the recovery rate was 92.31%-99.58%. No cross reactions with neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, liver-type fatty acid binding protein, and matrix metalloproteinase-3 were observed. A good correlation (R 2 = 0.9086) was found between the findings of Kim-1-TRFIA and Kim-AlphaLISA for the same set of samples. In clinical trials, both serum and urine Kim-1 levels were significantly higher in patients with nephropathy than in healthy individuals, especially in patients with acute kidney injury. Furthermore, serum Kim-1 was superior to urinary Kim-1 in distinguishing between patients with nephropathy and healthy individuals. Conclusion: The developed Kim-1-AlphaLISA is highly efficient, precise, and sensitive, and it is suitable for the rapid detection of patients with acute kidney injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review was to assess the diagnostic test accuracy of muscle ultrasound for sarcopenia among chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations. BACKGROUND Sarcopenia has become a worldwide health issue, especially for CKD patients. Conventional techniques of muscle mass assessment often prove limited, thus prompts increasing interest in ultrasound suitability. METHODS We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed and Embase for literature published up to June 2023. Ultrasound diagnosis of sarcopenia in CKD patients was included. Two independent investigators used the Quality Assessment Tool for Diagnosis Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) to assess the quality. We extracted valuable information from eligible studies. Using a Bayesian bivariate model, we pooled sensitivity and specificity values and summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curves. RESULTS Five articles, involving 428 participants at various stages of CKD were included. Three studies diagnosed by the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the rectus femoris, while two others by muscle thickness (MT) and shear wave elastography (SWE) from the same muscle, separately. Overall, CSA or SWE had a pooled sensitivity of 0.95 (95% CrI, 0.80, 1.00), and the specificity was 0.73 (95% CrI, 0.55, 0.88) for diagnosing sarcopenia in CKD patients. CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound measurements of CSA and SWE were more sensitive for diagnosing sarcopenia in the CKD population than in the general population. Ultrasound assessment from a single peripheral skeletal muscle site may serve as a rapid screening tool for identifying sarcopenic individuals within the CKD population, if a specific cut-off value could be determined.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a commonly encountered clinical syndrome. Although it often complicates community acquired illness, it is more common in hospitalized patients, particularly those who are critically ill or who have undergone major surgery. Approximately 20% of hospitalized adult patients develop an AKI during their hospital care, and this rises to nearly 60% in the critically ill, depending on the population being considered. In general, AKI is more common in older adults, in those with preexisting chronic kidney disease and in those with known risk factors for AKI (including diabetes and hypertension). The development of AKI is associated with an increase in both mortality and morbidity, including the development of post-AKI chronic kidney disease. Currently, AKI is defined by a rise in serum creatinine from either a known or derived baseline value and/or oliguria or anuria. However, clinicians may fail to recognize the initial development of AKI because of a delay in the rise of serum creatinine or because of inaccurate urine output monitoring. This, in turn, delays any putative measures to treat AKI or to limit its degree. Consequently, efforts have focused on new biomarkers associated with AKI that may allow early recognition of this syndrome with the intent that this will translate into improved patient outcomes. Here we outline current biomarkers associated with AKI and explore their potential in aiding diagnosis, understanding the pathophysiology and directing therapy.

Abstract
One of the most frequent issues in newborns is acute kidney injury (AKI), which can lengthen their hospital stay or potentially raise their chance of dying. The gut-kidney axis establishes a bidirectional interplay between gut microbiota and kidney illness, particularly AKI, and demonstrates the importance of gut microbiota to host health. Since the ability to predict neonatal AKI using blood creatinine and urine output as evaluation parameters is somewhat constrained, a number of interesting biomarkers have been developed. There are few in-depth studies on the relationships between these neonatal AKI indicators and gut microbiota. In order to gain fresh insights into the gut-kidney axis of neonatal AKI, this review is based on the gut-kidney axis and describes relationships between gut microbiota and neonatal AKI biomarkers.

Abstract
Sepsis is a syndrome caused by an imbalance in the inflammatory response of the body caused by an infection that leads to organ dysfunction, with the kidney being one of the most commonly affected organs. Sepsis-related acute kidney injury (SAKI) is strongly linked to increased mortality and poor clinical outcomes. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly reduce patient mortality. On the other hand, the pathogenesis of SAKI is not fully understood, and early diagnosis of SAKI is a clinical challenge. Therefore, the current review describes biomarkers of acute kidney injury in sepsis and discusses the various pathogenic mechanisms involved in the progression of acute kidney injury in sepsis to develop new clinical treatment avenues.

Abstract
Signs and symptoms involving multiple organ systems which persist for weeks or months to years after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection (also known as PASC or long COVID) are common complications of individuals with COVID-19. We recently reported pathophysiological changes in various organs post-acute infection of mice with mouse hepatitis virus-1 (MHV-1, a coronavirus) (7 days) and after long-term post-infection (12 months). One of the organs severely affected in this animal model is the kidney, which correlated well with human studies showing kidney injury post-SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our long-term post-infection pathological observation in kidneys includes the development of edema and inflammation of the renal parenchyma, severe acute tubular necrosis, and infiltration of macrophages and lymphocytes, in addition to changes observed in both acute and long-term post-infection, which include tubular epithelial cell degenerative changes, peritubular vessel congestion, proximal and distal tubular necrosis, hemorrhage in the interstitial tissue, and vacuolation of renal tubules. These findings strongly suggest the possible development of renal fibrosis, in particular in the long-term post-infection. Accordingly, we investigated whether the signaling system that is known to initiate the above-mentioned changes in kidneys in other conditions is also activated in long-term post-MHV-1 infection. We found increased TGF-β1, FGF23, NGAL, IL-18, HIF1-α, TLR2, YKL-40, and B2M mRNA levels in long-term post-MHV-1 infection, but not EGFR, TNFR1, BCL3, and WFDC2. However, only neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) increased in acute infection (7 days). Immunoblot studies showed an elevation in protein levels of HIF1-α, TLR-2, and EGFR in long-term post-MHV-1 infection, while KIM-1 and MMP-7 protein levels are increased in acute infection. Treatment with a synthetic peptide, SPIKENET (SPK), which inhibits spike protein binding, reduced NGAL mRNA in acute infection, and decreased TGF-β1, BCL3 mRNA, EGFR, HIF1-α, and TLR-2 protein levels long-term post-MHV-1 infection. These findings suggest that fibrotic events may initiate early in SARS-CoV-2 infection, leading to pronounced kidney fibrosis in long COVID. Targeting these factors therapeutically may prevent acute or long-COVID-associated kidney complications.

Abstract
Background There are limited tools available to predict the long-term prognosis of persons with coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO). Objectives We evaluated performance of a blood biomarker panel to predict cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with CTO. Methods From 1251 patients in the CASABLANCA study, 241 participants with a CTO were followed for an average of 4 years for occurrence of major adverse CV events (MACE, CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or stroke) and CV death/heart failure (HF) hospitalization. Results of a biomarker panel (kidney injury molecule-1, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, osteopontin, and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1) from baseline samples were expressed as low-, moderate-, and high-risk. Results By 4 years, a total of 67 (27.8%) MACE events and 56 (23.2%) CV death/HF hospitalization events occurred. The C-statistic of the panel for MACE through 4 years was 0.79. Considering patients in the low-risk group as a reference, the hazard ratio of MACE by 4 years was 6.65 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.98-14.8) and 12.4 (95% CI:5.17-29.6) for the moderate and high-risk groups (both P <0.001). The C-statistic for CVD/HF hospitalization by 4 years was 0.84. Compared to the low-risk score group, the moderate and high-risk groups had hazard ratios of 5.61 (95% CI: 2.33-13.5) and 15.6 (95% CI: 6.18, 39.2; both P value <0.001). Conclusion A multiple biomarker panel assists in evaluating the risk of adverse outcomes in patients with coronary CTO. These results may have implications for patient care and could have a role for clinical trial enrichment. Clinical Trial CASABLANCA, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00842868.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in cirrhotic patients affecting almost 20% of these patients. While multiple etiologies can lead to AKI, pre-renal azotemia seems to be the most common cause of AKI. Irrespective of the cause, AKI is associated with worse survival with the poorest outcomes observed in those with hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) and acute tubular necrosis (ATN). In recent years, new definitions, and classifications of AKI in cirrhosis have emerged. More knowledge has also become available regarding the benefits and drawbacks of albumin and terlipressin use in these patients. Diagnostic tools such as urinary biomarkers and point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) became available and they will be used in the near future to differentiate between different causes of AKI and direct management of AKI in these patients. In this update, we will review these new classifications, treatment recommendations, and diagnostic tools for AKI in cirrhotic patients.

Pharmacokinetic and Biomarker Quantification Studies on Vancomycin-Loaded PEGylated Liposomes and Its Potential to Reduce Vancomycin-Induced Kidney Injury: A Rat Study. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:1582. [PMID: 37376031 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15061582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Vancomycin is a commonly used antibiotic in hospital settings, especially against Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). One of the major adverse events of vancomycin use in adults is kidney injury. The drug concentration, specifically the area under the concentration curve, predicts kidney injury in adults receiving vancomycin. To attempt to reduce vancomycin-induced nephrotoxicity, we have successfully encapsulated vancomycin in polyethylene glycol-coated liposomes (PEG-VANCO-lipo). We have previously carried out in vitro cytotoxicity studies on kidney cells using PEG-VANCO-lipo and found it to be minimally toxic compared to the standard vancomycin. In this study, we have dosed male adult rats with PEG-VANCO-lipo or vancomycin HCl and compared plasma vancomycin concentrations and KIM-1 as an injury biomarker in rat urine. Male Sprague Dawley rats (350 ± 10 g) were administered vancomycin (n = 6) or PEG-VANCO-lipo (n = 6) 150 mg/kg/day for three days using an IV infusion in the left jugular vein catheter. Blood was collected for plasma at 15, 30, 60, 120, 240, and 1440 min after the first and the last IV dose. Urine was collected 0-2, 2-4, 4-8, and 8-24 h after the first and the last IV infusions using metabolic cages. The animals were observed for three days after the last compound administration. Vancomycin was quantified in plasma by LC-MS/MS. Urinary KIM-1 analysis was done by using an ELISA kit. Three days after the last dose, under terminal anesthesia with IP ketamine (65-100 mg/kg) and xylazine (7-10 mg/kg), rats were euthanized. Vancomycin urine and kidney concentrations and KIM-1 were lower on day three in the PEG-Vanco-lipo group compared to the vancomycin group (p < 0.05, ANOVA and/or t-test). There was a significant reduction in plasma vancomycin concentration on day one and day three (p < 0.05, t-test) in the vancomycin group compared to the PEG-VANCO-lipo group. Vancomycin-loaded PEGylated liposomes resulted in lower levels of kidney injury, as noted by a decrease in KIM-1 values. Moreover, longer circulation in plasma with increased concentration in plasma as opposed to the kidney was observed with the PEG-VANCO-lipo group. The results indicate the high potential of PEG-VANCO-lipo in decreasing the nephrotoxicity of vancomycin clinically.

Effects of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Blockade and Statins on Kidney Injury Marker 1 (KIM-1) in Female Rats Receiving L-NAME and Angiotensin II. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:6500. [PMID: 37047470 PMCID: PMC10095483 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) is a biomarker of renal injury and a predictor of cardiovascular disease. Aldosterone, via activation of the mineralocorticoid receptor, is linked to cardiac and renal injury. However, the impact of mineralocorticoid receptor activation and blockade on KIM-1 is uncertain. We investigated whether renal KIM-1 is increased in a cardiorenal injury model induced by L-NAME/ANG II, and whether mineralocorticoid receptor blockade prevents the increase in KIM-1. Since statin use is associated with lower aldosterone, we also investigated whether administering eiSther a lipophilic statin (simvastatin) or a hydrophilic statin (pravastatin) prevents the increase in renal KIM-1. Female Wistar rats (8-10 week old), consuming a high salt diet (1.6% Na+), were randomized to the following conditions for 14 days: control; L-NAME (0.2 mg/mL in drinking water)/ANG II (225 ug/kg/day on days 12-14); L-NAME/ANG II + eplerenone (100 mg/kg/day p.o.); L-NAME/ANG II + pravastatin (20 mg/kg/day p.o.); L-NAME/ANG II + simvastatin (20 mg/kg/day p.o.). Groups treated with L-NAME/ANG II had significantly higher blood pressure, plasma and urine aldosterone, cardiac injury/stroke composite score, and renal KIM-1 than the control group. Both eplerenone and simvastatin reduced 24-h urinary KIM-1 (p = 0.0046, p = 0.031, respectively) and renal KIM-1 immunostaining (p = 0.004, p = 0.037, respectively). Eplerenone also reduced renal KIM-1 mRNA expression (p = 0.012) and cardiac injury/stroke composite score (p = 0.04). Pravastatin did not affect these damage markers. The 24-h urinary KIM-1, renal KIM-1 immunostaining, and renal KIM-1 mRNA expression correlated with cardiac injury/stroke composite score (p < 0.0001, Spearman ranked correlation = 0.69, 0.66, 0.59, respectively). In conclusion, L-NAME/ANG II increases renal KIM-1 and both eplerenone and simvastatin blunt this increase in renal KIM-1.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication of cardiac surgery and is associated with increased mortality and morbidity, accompanied by a substantial economic burden. The pathogenesis of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is multifactorial and complex, with a variety of pathophysiological theories. In addition to the existing diagnostic criteria, the exploration and validation of biomarkers is the focus of research in the field of CSA-AKI diagnosis. Prevention remains the key to the management of CSA-AKI, and common strategies include maintenance of renal perfusion, individualized blood pressure targets, balanced fluid management, goal-directed oxygen delivery, and avoidance of nephrotoxins. This article reviews the pathogenesis, definition and diagnosis, and pharmacological and nonpharmacological prevention strategies of AKI in cardiac surgical patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing coronary catheterization are at increased risk of cardiovascular events (CVE). Measuring biomarkers before the procedure may guide clinicians in identifying patients at higher risk of future cardiovascular events. METHODS In this sub-study the Catheter Sampled Blood Archive in Cardiovascular Diseases (CASABLANCA), 927 patients underwent coronary catheterization and were followed up for two years. Using machine learning algorithm and targeted proteomics from samples of patients with CKD, 4 biomarkers (kidney injury molecule-1, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, osteopontin, and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1) were integrated into a prognostic algorithm to predict CVE. Results from the panel are expressed in a graded fashion (CVE higher risk and lower risk) using a data-driven cutoff optimized for balanced sensitivity and specificity. RESULTS During the 2-year follow-up, 74 CVE were ascertained. 51 (rate: 51/378 = 13.5%) events occurred in stage 1-2 CKD and 23 (rate: 23/68 = 33.8%) events occurred in stage 3-5 CKD. The C-statistic for predicting 2-years cardiovascular events in all 446 patients was 0.77 (0.72, 0.82). The model was well-calibrated (Hosmer-Lemeshow test p-value >0.40). Considering patients at CVE lower-risk within each CKD staging group as a reference, the hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) of cardiovascular events was 2.82 (1.53, 5.22) for CKD stage 1-2/CVE higher-risk, and 8.32 (1.12, 61.76) for CKD stage 3-5/CVE higher-risk. CONCLUSION Measuring biomarker panel prior to coronary catheterization may be useful to individualize CVE risk assessment among patients with CKD.

Abstract
Septic acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by inflammation. Pyroptosis often occurs during AKI and is associated with the development of septic AKI. This study found that induction of insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) to a higher level can induce pyroptosis in renal tubular cells. Meanwhile, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), a subunit of NLRP3 inflammasomes, was essential for IGF2BP1-induced pyroptosis. A putative m6A recognition site was identified at the 3'-UTR region of E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) mRNA via bioinformatics analyses and validated using mutation and luciferase experiments. Further actinomycin D (Act D) chase experiments showed that IGF2BP1 stabilized E2F1 mRNA dependent on m6A. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) indicated that E2F1 acted as a transcription factor to promote MIF expression. Thus, IGF2BP1 upregulated MIF through directly upregulating E2F1 expression via m6A modification. Experiments on mice with cecum ligation puncture (CLP) surgery verified the relationships between IGF2BP1, E2F1, and MIF and demonstrated the significance of IGF2BP1 in MIF-associated pyroptosis in vivo. In conclusion, IGF2BP1 was a potent pyroptosis inducer in septic AKI through targeting the MIF component of NLRP3 inflammasomes. Inhibiting IGF2BP1 could be an alternate pyroptosis-based treatment for septic AKI.

Abstract
The definition of acute kidney injury (AKI), despite improvements in criteria, continues to be based on the level of serum creatinine and urinary output that do not specifically indicate tubular function or injury, or glomerular function or injury that is not significant enough to warrant acute hospitalization of the patient. Finding novel biomarkers of AKI has become a major focus nowadays in nephrology to overcome the further complications of end stage renal disease (ESRD). Many compounds, such as KIM 1, IL 18, NGAL, uromodulin, calprotectin, vanin 1, galactin 3, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), urinary Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3), retinol binding protein (RBP) and Cystatin C, are released from the renal tubules and thus any alterations in tubular function can be detected by measuring these parameters in urine. Additionally, glomerular injury can be detected by measuring immunoglobulin G, nephrin, podocalyxin, podocin, transferrin, netrin-1, pyruvate kinase M2, etc. in urine. These novel biomarkers will be useful for timing the initial insult and assessing the duration of AKI. According to available research, these biomarkers could be applied to assess the onset of AKI, distinguishing between kidney injury and dysfunction, directing the management of AKI, and enhancing disease diagnosis. Therefore, we intend to present recent developments in our understanding of significant biomarkers implicated in various aspects of renal damage. Numerous biomarkers are implicated in various pathophysiological processes that follow renal injury, and can improve prognosis and risk classification.

Abstract
Aims The aim of this study was to systematically review relevant studies to evaluate the value of urinary interleukin-18 (uIL-18) in predicting acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods A comprehensive search of PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted for literature published up to 1 August 2022. Quality Assessment Tool for Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 (QUADAS-2) was applied to assess the literature quality. Then, relevant data were extracted from each eligible study and a random-effects regression model was utilized to pool sensitivity, specificity, and construct summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) and area under curve (AUC). Results Twenty-six studies with 7183 patients were enrolled and relevant information was extracted. The estimated sensitivity and specificity of uIL-18 in the diagnosis of AKI were 0.64 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.54–0.73) and 0.77 (95%CI: 0.71–0.83), respectively. The pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 6.08 (95%CI: 3.63–10.18), and the AUC of uIL-18 in predicting AKI was 0.78 (95%CI: 0.74–0.81). Subgroup analysis showed that uIL-18 in pediatric patients was more effective in predicting AKI than in adults (DOR: 7.33 versus 5.75; AUC: 0.81 versus 0.77). Conclusions Urinary IL-18 could be a relatively good biomarker with moderate predictive value for AKI, especially in pediatric patients. However, further research and clinical settings are still needed to validate our findings.

Abstract
Cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a common complication of cardiac surgery resulting from the patient's exposure to a complex combination of factors in the perioperative period. Current diagnostic criteria for AKI may underestimate the incidence of this complication due to certain specific features of cardiac surgery patients. The introduction of new diagnostic biomarkers of kidney injury into clinical practice has shown the prospective of identifying patients in the early stages of CSA-AKI development. Accurate and timely identification of patients at high risk of developing CSA-AKI can also allow performing comprehensive interventions to prevent it. When diagnosed, CSA-AKI management limited to symptomatic treatment.

Abstract
Recent advances have improved our understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI). So far, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome guidelines define and stratify kidney injury based on increases in serum creatinine level and/or decreases in urine output. Although the term AKI acknowledges the existence of cellular injury, its diagnosis is still only defined by the reduced excretory function of the kidney. New biomarkers that aid a better understanding of the relationship between acute tubular injury and kidney dysfunction have been identified, reflecting the advances in molecular biology. The expression of some of these novel biomarkers precedes changes in conventional biomarkers or can increase their predictive power. Therefore, they might enhance the clinical accuracy of the definition of AKI. This review summarizes the limitations of the current AKI classification and a panel of candidate biomarkers for augmenting AKI classification and recognition of AKI subphenotypes. We expect that the integration of appropriately selected biomarkers in routine clinical practice can improve AKI care.

Abstract
Growth Factors have been evaluated as therapeutic targets for the treatment of a broad spectrum of diseases. Because they are proteins with pleiotropic effects, the quest to harness their beneficial effects has presented challenges. Most Growth Factors operate at the extracellular-receptor level and have natural feedback mechanisms that modulate their effects. As proteins, they are difficult and expensive to manufacture. Frequently proteins must be administered parenterally, may invoke an immune response, and may be neutralized by naturally occurring inhibitors. To circumvent these limitations, we have undertaken an effort to develop mimetics for the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) signaling pathway effects that incorporate the beneficial effects, eliminate the deleterious effects, and thereby create effective drug-like compounds.To this end, we have designed and tested a family of small peptide BMP mimetics. The design used the three-dimensional structure of BMP-7 to identify likely active surface regions. Lead sequences were then optimized based on in vitro assays that examine the selective binding to BMP receptors, demonstrate the phosphorylation of Smad-1,5,8, detect anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammation, and block the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in renal tubular epithelial cells. These sequences were further optimized using in vivo assays of the attenuation of acute kidney injury in a rat-model of unilateral clamp ischemic reperfusion. This process uses a Structure Variance Analysis algorithm (SVA) to identify structure/activity relationships. One member of this family, THR-184, is an agonist of BMP signaling and a potent antagonist of TGFβ signaling. This small peptide mimetic inhibits inflammation, apoptosis, fibrosis and reverses epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) by regulating multiple signaling pathways involved in the cellular injury of multiple organs. Its effects have been shown to control Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). THR-184 has progressed through phase I and II clinical trials for the prevention of Cardio-Vascular Surgery (CVS) associated AKI. This work provides a roadmap for the development of other growth factor mimetics and demonstrates how we might harness their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Background Sepsis-related acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a frequent complication of hospitalized patients and is linked to increased morbidity and mortality. Early prediction and detection remain conducive to optimizing treatment strategies and limiting further insults. This study was aimed at evaluating the potential predictive value of the combined prognostic nutrition index (PNI) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict the risk of AKI in septic patients. Methods In this retrospective study, 1238 adult patients with sepsis who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2015 to June 2021 were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups: the non-AKI group (n = 731) and the S-AKI group (n = 507). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to screen the independent predictive factors of S-AKI. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of PNI and NLR. Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, chronic liver disease, cardiovascular disease, respiratory rate (RR), white blood cells (WBC), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CRE), international normalized ratio (INR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and prognostic nutrition index (PNI) were independent prognostic factors of S-AKI. In the three models, the adjusted OR of PNI for S-AKI was 0.802 (0.776-0.829), 0.801 (0.775-0.829), and 0.717 (0.666-0.772), while that of NLR was 1.094 (1.078-1.111), 1.097 (1.080-1.114), and 1.044 (1.016-1.072), respectively. In addition, the area under the ROC curve of the PNI plus NLR group was significantly greater than that of the CRE plus BUN group (0.801, 95% CI: 0.775-0.827 vs. 0.750, 95% CI: 0.722-0.778, respectively; P < 0.001). Conclusions PNI and NLR have been identified as readily available and independent predictors in septic patients with S-AKI. PNI, in combination with NLR, is of vital significance for early warning and efficient intervention of S-AKI and is superior to combined BUN and CRE.

Abstract
Heart failure is a major public health problem and, despite the constantly emerging, new, effective treatments, it remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Reliable tools for early diagnosis and risk stratification are crucial in the management of HF. This explains a growing interest in the development of new biomarkers related to various pathophysiological mechanisms of HF. In the course of this review, we focused on the markers of congestion and renal dysfunction in terms of their interference with cardiovascular homeostasis. Congestion is a hallmark feature of heart failure, contributing to symptoms, morbidity, and hospitalizations of patients with HF and has, therefore, become a therapeutic target in AHF. On the other hand, impaired renal function by altering the volume status contributes to the development and progression of HF and serves as a marker of an adverse clinical outcome. Early detection of congestion and an adequate assessment of renal status are essential for the prompt administration of patient-tailored therapy. This review provides an insight into recent advances in the field of HF biomarkers that could be potentially implemented in diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with HF.

Abstract
Background The 2020 Acute Disease Quality Initiative Consensus provided recommendations on novel acute kidney injury biomarkers. In this study, we sought to assess the added value of novel kidney biomarkers to a clinical score in the CASABLANCA (Catheter Sampled Blood Archive in Cardiovascular Diseases) study. Methods and Results We evaluated individuals undergoing coronary and/or peripheral angiography and added 4 candidate biomarkers for acute kidney injury (kidney injury molecule‐1, interleukin‐18, osteopontin, and cystatin C) to a previously described contrast‐associated acute kidney injury (CA‐AKI) risk score. Participants were categorized into integer score groups based on the risk assigned by the biomarker‐enhanced CA‐AKI model. Risk for incident cardiorenal outcomes during a median 3.7 years of follow‐up was assessed. Of 1114 participants studied, 55 (4.94%) developed CA‐AKI. In adjusted models, neither kidney injury molecule‐1 nor interleukin‐18 improved discrimination for CA‐AKI; addition of osteopontin and cystatin C to the CA‐AKI clinical model significantly increased the c‐statistic from 0.69 to 0.73 (P for change <0.001) and resulted in a Net Reclassification Index of 59.4. Considering those with the lowest CA‐AKI integer score as a reference, the intermediate, high‐risk, and very‐high‐risk groups were associated with adverse cardiorenal outcomes. The corresponding hazard ratios of the very‐high‐risk group were 3.39 (95% CI, 2.14–5.38) for nonprocedural acute kidney injury, 5.58 (95% CI, 3.23–9.63) for incident chronic kidney disease, 6.21 (95% CI, 3.67–10.47) for myocardial infarction, and 8.94 (95% CI, 4.83–16.53) for all‐cause mortality. Conclusions A biomarker‐enhanced risk model significantly improves the prediction of CA‐AKI beyond clinical variables alone and may stratify the risk of future cardiorenal outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in hospitalized patients and is a major risk factor for increased length of stay, morbidity, and mortality in postoperative patients. There are multiple barriers to reducing perioperative AKI - the etiology is multi-factorial and the diagnosis is fraught with issues. We review the recent literature on perioperative AKI and some considerations for anesthesiologists that examine the far-reaching effects of AKI on multiple organ systems. RECENT FINDINGS This review will discuss recent literature that addresses the epidemiology, use of novel biomarkers in risk stratification, and therapeutic modalities for AKI in burn, pediatrics, sepsis, trauma, cardiac, and liver disease, contrast-induced AKI, as well as the evidence assessing goal-directed fluid therapy. SUMMARY Recent studies address the use of risk stratification models and biomarkers, more sensitive than creatinine, in the preoperative identification of patients at risk for AKI. Although exciting, these scores and models need validation. There is a need for research assessing whether early AKI detection improves outcomes. Enhanced recovery after surgery utilizing goal-directed fluid therapy has not been shown to make an appreciable difference in the incidence of AKI. Reducing perioperative AKI requires a multi-pronged and possibly disease-specific approach.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major and serious global health problem that leads to kidney damage as well as multiple systemic diseases. Early diagnosis and treatment are two major measures to prevent further deterioration of kidney function and to delay adverse outcomes. However, the paucity of early, predictive and noninvasive biomarkers has undermined our ability to promptly detect and treat this common clinical condition which affects more than 10% of the population worldwide. Despite all limitations, kidney function is still measured by serum creatinine, cystatin C, and albuminuria, as well as estimating glomerular filtration rate using different equations. This review aims to provide comprehensive insight into diagnostic methods available for early detection of CKD. In the review, we discuss the following topics: (i) markers of glomerular injury; (ii) markers of tubulointerstitial injury; (iii) the role of omics; (iv) the role of microbiota; (v) and finally, the role of microRNA in the early detection of CKD. Despite all novel findings, none of these biomarkers have met the criteria of an ideal early marker. Since the central role in CKD progression is the proximal tubule (PT), most data from the literature have analyzed biomarkers of PT injury, such as KIM-1 (kidney injury molecule-1), NGAL (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin), and L-FABP (liver fatty acid-binding protein).

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome that is characterized by abnormal renal function and structure. The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Controversies Conference in 2019 reviewed the stages of AKI and the definitions of AKI-related terminologies, and discussed the advances in the last decade. Along with serum creatinine level and urine output, more accurate novel biomarkers for predicting AKI are being applied for the early detection of renal dysfunction. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Medline, and ClinicalTrials.gov using the terms AKI and biomarker, combined with diagnosis, management, or prognosis. Because of the large volume of data (160 articles) published between 2005 and 2022, representative literature was chosen. A number of studies have demonstrated that new biomarkers are more sensitive in detecting AKI in certain populations than serum creatinine and urine output according to the recommendations from the Acute Disease Quality Initiative Consensus Conference. To be specific, there is a persistently unresolved need for earlier detection of patients with AKI before AKI progresses to a need for renal replacement therapy. Biomarker-guided management may help to identify a high-risk group of patients in progression to severe AKI, and decide the initiation time to renal replacement therapy and optimal follow-up period. However, limitations such as biased data to certain studied populations and absence of cutoff values need to be solved for worldwide clinical use of biomarkers in the future. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of biomarker-based AKI diagnosis and management and highlight recent developments.

Abstract
Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) such as cyclosporin A (CsA) have been widely used to improve graft survival following solid-organ transplantation. However, the clinical use of CsA is often limited by its nephrotoxicity. The present study tested the hypothesis that activation of (pro)renin receptor (PRR) contributes to CsA-induced nephropathy by activating the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Renal injury in male Sprague-Dawley rats was induced by a low-salt diet combined with CsA as evidenced by elevated plasma creatinine and BUN levels, decreased creatinine clearance and induced renal inflammation, apoptosis as well as interstitial fibrosis, elevated urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase activity and urinary kidney injury molecular 1 content. Each index of renal injury was attenuated following a 2-wk treatment with a PRR decoy inhibitor PRO20. While CsA rats with kidney injury displayed increased renal sPRR abundance, plasma sPRR, renin activity, Ang II, and heightened urinary total prorenin/renin content; RAS activation was attenuated by PRO20. Exposure of cultured human renal proximal tubular HK-2 cells to CsA induced expression of fibronectin and sPRR production, but the fibrotic response was attenuated by PRO20 and siRNA-mediated PRR knockdown. These findings support the hypothesis that activation of PRR contributes to CsA-induced nephropathy by activating the RAS in rats. Of importance, we provide strong proof of concept that targeting PRR offers a novel therapeutic strategy to limit nephotoxic effects of immunosuppressant drugs.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:120. [PMID: 35052623 PMCID: PMC8772794 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11010120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Obesity is a worldwide epidemic with severe metabolic consequences. Polyphenols are secondary metabolites in plants and the most abundant dietary antioxidants, which possess a wide range of health effects. The most relevant food sources are fruit and vegetables, red wine, black and green tea, coffee, virgin olive oil, and chocolate, as well as nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices. The aim of this work was to evaluate the ability of a pure, isolated polyphenol supplementation to counteract the pernicious metabolic effects of a high-fat diet (HFD). Our results indicated that the administration of pure, isolated polyphenols under HFD conditions for 26 weeks worsened the glucose metabolism in diet-induced obese mice. The data showed that the main target organ for these undesirable effects were the kidneys, where we observed fibrotic, oxidative, and kidney-disease markers. This work led us to conclude that the administration of pure polyphenols as a food supplement would not be advisable. Instead, the ingestion of complete "whole" foods would be the best way to get the health effects of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects a large proportion of hospitalized children and increases morbidity and mortality in this population. Initially thought to be a self-limiting condition with uniformly good prognosis, we now know that AKI can persist and progress to acute kidney disease (AKD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). AKI is presently categorized by stage of injury defined by increase in creatinine, decrease in eGFR, or decrease in urine output. These commonly used biomarkers of acute kidney injury do not change until the injury is well established and are unable to detect early stage of the disease when intervention is likely to reverse injury. The kidneys have the ability to compensate and return serum creatinine to a normal or baseline level despite nephron loss in the setting of AKI possibly masking persistent dysfunction. Though these definitions are important, classifying children by their propensity for progression to AKD and CKD and defining these risk strata by other factors besides creatinine may allow for better prognosis driven discussion, expectation setting, and care for our patients. In order to develop a classification strategy, we must first be able to recognize children who are at risk for AKD and CKD based on modifiable and non-modifiable factors as well as early biomarkers that identify their risk of persistent injury. Prevention of initial injury, prompt evaluation and treatment if injury occurs, and mitigating further injury during the recovery period may be important factors in decreasing risk of AKD and CKD after AKI. This review will cover presently used definitions of AKI, AKD, and CKD, recent findings in epidemiology and risk factors for AKI to AKD to CKD progression, novel biomarkers for early identification of AKI and AKI that may progress to CKD and future directions for improving outcome in children with AKI.

Abstract
Type-1 cardiorenal syndrome refers to acute kidney injury induced by acute worsening cardiac function. Worsening renal function is a strong and independent predictive factor for poor prognosis. Currently, several problems of the type-1 cardiorenal syndrome have not been fully elucidated. The pathogenesis mechanism of renal dysfunction is unclear. Besides, the diagnostic efficiency, sensitivity, and specificity of the existing biomarkers are doubtful. Furthermore, the renal safety of the therapeutic strategies for acute heart failure (AHF) is still ambiguous. Based on these issues, we systematically summarized and depicted the research actualities and predicaments of the pathogenesis, diagnostic markers, and therapeutic strategies of worsening renal function in type-1 cardiorenal syndrome.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery is characterized by specific patterns of damage and recovery that are important to consider for management and outcome. The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) classification covers only part of the conceptual framework and is thus insufficient for a comprehensive diagnosis. This review highlights the strengths and limitations of the recent criteria and provides an overview of biomarkers of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). The evolving understanding of CSA-AKI as a time-sensitive condition has increased the demand to enhance the diagnostic criteria and translate biomarkers into clinical practice.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is now recognized as a heterogeneous syndrome that not only affects acute morbidity and mortality, but also a patient’s long-term prognosis. In this narrative review, an update on various aspects of AKI in critically ill patients will be provided. Focus will be on prediction and early detection of AKI (e.g., the role of biomarkers to identify high-risk patients and the use of machine learning to predict AKI), aspects of pathophysiology and progress in the recognition of different phenotypes of AKI, as well as an update on nephrotoxicity and organ cross-talk. In addition, prevention of AKI (focusing on fluid management, kidney perfusion pressure, and the choice of vasopressor) and supportive treatment of AKI is discussed. Finally, post-AKI risk of long-term sequelae including incident or progression of chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular events and mortality, will be addressed.
