[PMID: 39077356 PMCID: PMC11263166 DOI: 10.31083/j.rcm2502054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs after aortic surgery and has a significant impact on patient outcomes. Early detection or prediction of AKI is crucial for timely interventions. This study aims to develop and validate a novel model for predicting AKI following aortic surgery. Methods We enrolled 156 patients who underwent on-pump aortic surgery in our hospital from February 2023 to April 2023. Postoperative levels of eight cytokines related to macrophage polarization analyzed using a multiplex cytokine assay. All-subset regression was used to select the optimal cytokines to predict AKI. A logistic regression model incorporating the selected cytokines was used for internal validation in combination with a bootstrapping technique. The model's ability to discriminate between cases of AKI and non-AKI was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results Of the 156 patients, 109 (69.87%) developed postoperative AKI. Interferon-gamma (IFN- γ ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) were identified as candidate AKI predictors. The cytokine-based model including IFN- γ and IL-4 demonstrated excellent discrimination (C-statistic: 0.90) and good calibration (Brier score: 0.11). A clinical nomogram was generated, and decision curve analysis revealed that the cytokine-based model outperformed the clinical factor-based model in terms of net benefit. Moreover, both IFN- γ and IL-4 emerged as independent risk factors for AKI. Patients in the second and third tertiles of IFN- γ and IL-4 concentrations had a significantly higher risk of severe AKI, a higher likelihood of requiring renal replacement therapy, or experiencing in-hospital death. These patients also had extended durations of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit stays, compared with those in the first tertile (all p for group trend < 0.001). Conclusions We successfully established a novel and powerful predictive model for AKI, and demonstrating the significance of IFN- γ and IL-4 as valuable clinical markers. These cytokines not only predict the risk of AKI following aortic surgery but are also linked to adverse in-hospital outcomes. This model offers a promising avenue for the early identification of high-risk patients, potentially improving clinical decision-making and patient care.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e35284. [PMID: 37800811 PMCID: PMC10553025 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000035284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The timely identification of patients at risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), along with early prevention, real-time monitoring, and prompt intervention, plays a crucial role in enhancing patient prognosis after major surgery. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive search across multiple databases, including Web of Science, EMBASE, MEDLINE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Cochrane Library. Each study's risk of bias was independently evaluated as low, moderate, or high, utilizing criteria adapted from Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2. The analysis was performed using STATA V.17.0 and R software V.3.4.1. Diagnostic tests were ranked based on the dominance index. We performed meta-analyses to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) individually. We then carried out a network meta-analysis to compare the performances of these biomarkers. RESULTS Fifteen studies were included in this analysis. The meta-analysis findings revealed that among all the biomarkers assessed, serum cystatin C (s-CysC) (hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic curve [HSROC] 82%, 95% CI 0.78-0.85) exhibited the highest HSROC value. The network meta-analysis demonstrated that urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (u-KIM-1) and s-CysC displayed relatively higher sensitivity and specificity, respectively. In subgroup analyses, u-KIM-1 in the urine output (OU) group (OR 303.75, 95% CI 3.39-1844.88), s-CysC in the non-OU group (OR 10.31, 95% CI 3.09-26.2), interleukin-18 in the noncardiac surgery group (OR 46.20, 95% CI 0.48-307.68), s-CysC in the cardiac group (OR 12.42, 95% CI 2.9-35.86), u-KIM-1 in the retrospective group (OR 243.00, 95% CI 1.73-1582.11), and s-CysC in the prospective group (OR 8.35, 95% CI 2.34-21.15) had the best diagnostic accuracy. However, it is important to note that existing publication bias may reduce the reliability of the above-mentioned results. CONCLUSION The biomarker of s-CysC has the highest HSROC value to predicting acute kidney injury after major surgery in meta-analysis and relatively higher specificity in network meta-analyses. u-KIM-1 exhibited relatively higher sensitivity, with best diagnostic accuracy in the OU and retrospective group in the subgroup analysis.

Comparative accuracy of biomarkers for the prediction of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Crit Care 2022; 26:349. [PMID: 36371256 PMCID: PMC9652605 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-022-04223-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Several biomarkers have been proposed to predict the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI); however, their efficacy varies between different trials. The aim of this study was to compare the predictive performance of different candidate biomarkers for AKI. Methods In this systematic review, we searched PubMed, Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for papers published up to August 15, 2022. We selected all studies of adults (> 18 years) that reported the predictive performance of damage biomarkers (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP)), inflammatory biomarker (interleukin-18 (IL-18)), and stress biomarker (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 × insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-7 (TIMP-2 × IGFBP-7)) for the occurrence of AKI. We performed pairwise meta-analyses to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) individually. Hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic curves (HSROCs) were used to summarize the pooled test performance, and the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations criteria were used to appraise the quality of evidence. Results We identified 242 published relevant studies from 1,803 screened abstracts, of which 110 studies with 38,725 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Urinary NGAL/creatinine (diagnostic odds ratio [DOR] 16.2, 95% CI 10.1–25.9), urinary NGAL (DOR 13.8, 95% CI 10.2–18.8), and serum NGAL (DOR 12.6, 95% CI 9.3–17.3) had the best diagnostic accuracy for the risk of AKI. In subgroup analyses, urinary NGAL, urinary NGAL/creatinine, and serum NGAL had better diagnostic accuracy for AKI than urinary IL-18 in non-critically ill patients. However, all of the biomarkers had similar diagnostic accuracy in critically ill patients. In the setting of medical and non-sepsis patients, urinary NGAL had better predictive performance than urinary IL-18, urinary L-FABP, and urinary TIMP-2 × IGFBP-7: 0.3. In the surgical patients, urinary NGAL/creatinine and urinary KIM-1 had the best diagnostic accuracy. The HSROC values of urinary NGAL/creatinine, urinary NGAL, and serum NGAL were 91.4%, 85.2%, and 84.7%, respectively. Conclusions Biomarkers containing NGAL had the best predictive accuracy for the occurrence of AKI, regardless of whether or not the values were adjusted by urinary creatinine, and especially in medically treated patients. However, the predictive performance of urinary NGAL was limited in surgical patients, and urinary NGAL/creatinine seemed to be the most accurate biomarkers in these patients. All of the biomarkers had similar predictive performance in critically ill patients. Trial registrationCRD42020207883, October 06, 2020.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) is a promising biomarker for the early prediction of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the clinical utility of L-FABP in different populations or settings remains unclear. We present a meta-analysis of studies evaluating the performance of L-FABP in AKI prediction. METHODS We performed a literature search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library, using search terms "acute kidney injury" and "L-FABP." Studies investigating the performance characteristics of L-FABP for the early diagnosis of AKI were included. Data about patient characteristics, diagnostic criteria of AKI, quantitative data required for construction of a 2 × 2 table (number of participants, sensitivity, specificity, and case number), study settings, and outcomes were extracted. The bivariable model was applied to calculate the estimated sensitivity and specificity of L-FABP. A summary ROC curve was created by plotting the true-positive rate against the false-positive rate at various cutoff values from different studies. RESULTS We found 27 studies reporting measurement of urine (n = 25 studies) or plasma (n = 2 studies) L-FABP. Overall, the estimated sensitivity was 0.74 (95% CI: 0.69-0.80) and specificity was 0.78 (95% CI: 0.71-0.83). L-FABP demonstrated a stable area under the ROC of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.79-0.85) in variable clinical settings including intensive care unit, surgery, and contrast-induced AKI. In subgroup analysis excluding pediatric and post radiocontrast exposure cohorts, L-FABP had comparative diagnostic performance with neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL). CONCLUSIONS Despite broad prevalence, L-FABP is a clinically useful marker with moderate accuracy in variable clinical settings as demonstrated in our subgroup analysis. Except for pediatric patients and those post-radiocontrast exposure, L-FABP has comparable discriminative capability as NGAL.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), as well as for cardiovascular and renal events and all-cause mortality following surgery for AAA or thoracic aortic dissection. In addition, the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after any aortic surgery is particularly high, and this AKI per se is independently associated with future cardiovascular events and mortality. On the other hand, both development of AKI after surgery and the long-term evolution of kidney function differ significantly depending on the type of AAA intervention (open surgery vs. the various subtypes of endovascular repair). Current knowledge regarding AAA in the general population may not be always applicable to CKD patients, as they have a high prevalence of co-morbid conditions and an elevated risk for periprocedural complications. This summary of a Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes Controversies Conference group discussion reviews the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of Diseases of the Aorta in CKD and identifies knowledge gaps, areas of controversy, and priorities for future research.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects about 10% of all populations worldwide, with about 2 million people requiring dialysis. Although patients with CKD are at high risk of cardiovascular disease and events, they are often underrepresented or excluded in clinical trials, leading to important knowledge gaps about how to treat these patients. KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) convened the fourth clinical Controversies Conference on the heart, kidney and vasculature in Dublin, Ireland, in February 2020, entitled Central and Peripheral Arterial Diseases in Chronic Kidney Disease. A global panel of multidisciplinary experts from the fields of nephrology, cardiology, neurology, surgery, radiology, vascular biology, epidemiology, and health economics attended. The objective was to identify key issues related to the optimal detection, management, and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases, central aortic disease, renovascular disease, and peripheral artery disease in the setting of CKD. This report outlines the common pathophysiology of these vascular processes in the setting of CKD, describes best practices for their diagnosis and management, summarizes areas of uncertainty, addresses ongoing controversial issues, and proposes a research agenda to address key gaps in knowledge that, when addressed, could improve patient care and outcomes.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a degenerative disease of the aortic wall with potentially fatal complications. Open repair (OR) was considered the gold standard, until the emergence of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), which is less invasive and equally (if not more) effective. As the popularity of endovascular procedures grows, related complications become more evident, with kidney damage being one of them. Although acute kidney injury (AKI) following EVAR is relatively common, its true incidence is still uncertain. Also, there is insufficient data concerning long-term renal outcomes after EVAR, especially with repeated contrast agent exposure. Despite the lack of firm evidence on the effectiveness of individual strategies, it is evident that prevention of AKI following EVAR requires a multifactorial approach. This review focuses on recent findings based on human studies regarding the current evidence of renal impairment after EVAR, its quantification and strategies for its prevention.

Abstract
Background Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a diagnostic marker for acute kidney injury (AKI). NGAL expression is highly induced not only in kidney injury but also in bacterial infection, inflammation, and cancer. The factors regulating NGAL expression are proinflammatory cytokines, and plasma NGAL levels have been increased in septic shock. However, there are no reports of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) levels after open esophagectomy. Methods We prospectively enrolled critically ill patients, including patients with sepsis (n = 45) and patients who underwent open esophagectomy (n = 40). We compared vital signs, PaO2/FIO2, serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and uNGAL levels between the sepsis group and the esophagectomy group. Then, we investigated whether uNGAL is associated with the severity of illness and organ failure, and whether uNGAL is a reliable screening test for AKI. Results The median uNGAL levels, APACHE II score, SOFA score, and serum CRP levels were significantly (p < 0.001) higher in the sepsis group than in the esophagectomy group on ICU day 1. In the sepsis group, uNGAL levels were significantly (p < 0.05) correlated with APACHE II score and SOFA score on intensive care unit (ICU) day 1, 2, and 3. In the esophagectomy group, uNGAL levels were significantly (p < 0.05) correlated with SOFA score on ICU day 3 and 4. In the sepsis group, 1 patient developed AKI stage 2 and 6 patients developed AKI stage 3. No patients developed AKI in the esophagectomy group. In a total of 85 patients of this study, 80 patients had an abnormal value of uNGAL and only 7 patients (8.7%) of those 80 patients developed AKI. Conclusions uNGAL levels were correlated with the severity of illness and organ failure in critically ill patients. The value of uNGAL increases under the surgical and inflammatory responses, thereby losing a significance of a screening test of AKI in critically ill patients.

Abstract
The widespread adoption of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is due to the obvious advantages of the procedure compared to the traditional open repair. However, these advantages have to be weighed against the increased risk of renal dysfunction with EVAR. The evaluation of the perioperative renal function after EVAR has been hampered by the lack of sensitive and specific biochemical markers of acute kidney injury (AKI). The purpose of this study was to summarize all novel renal biomarkers and to evaluate their clinical utility for the assessment of the kidney function after EVAR. A systematic review of the current literature, as the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement guidelines, was performed to identify relevant studies with novel renal biomarkers and EVAR. Pubmed and Scopus databases were systemically searched. Studies reporting on thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), case reports, case series, letters to the editor, and systematic reviews were excluded. Neutrophil-Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin, Cystatin C, Liver-type fatty-acid-binding protein were the most common among the eligible studies while Interleukin-18, Retinol binding protein, N-acetyle-b-D-glucosaminidase and microalbumin have a sparse appearance in the literature. These biomarkers have been assessed in plasma as well as urine samples with each sample material having its own advantages and drawbacks. Which of these biomarkers has the most potential for assessing postoperative renal failure after EVAR, remains to be proved. The few studies presented in the literature show the potential clinical utility of these biomarkers, but larger studies with longer follow-up are required to determine the precise relationship between these biomarkers and postoperative acute kidney injury.

The effect of remote ischemic preconditioning on serum creatinine in patients undergoing partial nephrectomy: a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial. Trials 2018; 19:473.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) may develop during partial nephrectomy due to ischemic reperfusion injury induced by renal artery clamping or surgical insult. The effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on reducing the renal injury after partial nephrectomy has not been evaluated in terms of urinary biomarkers. Methods/design We will conduct a randomized controlled trial enrolling the patients who will undergo partial nephrectomy. In the study group, RIPC which consisted of four 5-min cycles of limb ischemia and reperfusion will be conducted after induction of anesthesia. Postoperative serum creatinine values, the incidence of AKI, and urinary biomarkers, including urinary creatinine, microalbumin, β-2 microglobulin, and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, will be compared between groups during the postoperative 2 weeks. Regional oxygen saturation on the skin of the contralateral kidney will be measured to evaluate the association between intraoperative regional oxygen saturation values and renal injury of the operating side. Discussion We expect that our trial may demonstrate the effect of RIPC on mitigating the immediate postoperative renal injury and improving patient outcomes after partial nephrectomy. Moreover, our patients will undergo 99mTc-DTPA radionuclide scintigraphy to calculate glomerular filtration rate 6 and 12 months after surgery. This data should show the long-term effect of RIPC.

Clinical usefulness of urinary liver-type fatty-acid-binding protein as a perioperative marker of acute kidney injury in patients undergoing endovascular or open-abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. J Anesth 2015; 30:89-99. [PMID: 26585768 PMCID: PMC4750552 DOI: 10.1007/s00540-015-2095-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2015] [Accepted: 09/29/2015] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiovascular surgery and
is usually diagnosed on the basis of the serum creatinine (SCr) level and urinary
output. However, SCr is of low sensitivity in patients with poor renal function.
Because urinary liver-type fatty-acid-binding protein (L-FABP) reflects renal
tubular injury, we evaluated whether perioperative changes in urinary L-FABP
predict AKI in the context of abdominal aortic repair. Methods Study participants were 95 patients who underwent endovascular
abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) and 42 who underwent open repair. We
obtained urine samples before surgery, after anesthesia induction, upon stent
placement, before aortic cross-clamping (AXC), 1 and 2 h after AXC, at the end of
surgery, 4 h after surgery, and on postoperative days (PODs) 1, 2, and 3, for
measurement of L-FABP. We obtained serum samples before surgery, immediately after
surgery, and on PODs 1, 2, and 3, for measurement of SCr. We also plotted
receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves to identify cutoff laboratory
values for predicting the onset of AKI. Results With EVAR, urinary L-FABP was significantly increased 4 h after the
procedure (P = 0.014). With open repair,
urinary L-FABP increased significantly to its maximum by 2 h after AXC (P = 0.007). With AKI, SCr significantly increased
(P < 0.001, P = 0.001) by POD 2. ROC analysis showed urinary L-FABP to be more
sensitive than SCr for early detection of AKI. Conclusion Urinary L-FABP appears to be a sensitive biomarker of AKI in
patients undergoing abdominal aortic repair.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify evidence to guide the vascular surgeon as to the relevance of renal artery stenting in a patient with symptomatic renal artery stenosis undergoing elective endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). METHODS A comprehensive literature search of MEDLINE was performed without time limits. The following terms were used in the first instance: renal artery stenting and renal artery stenosis, and any other analogous terms identified during the search. Selection criteria were set to randomised control trials. RESULTS Despite several large, randomised controlled trials investigating renal artery stenting against medical treatment alone in symptomatic renal artery stenosis, there has been no significant benefit identified in terms of improvement in renal function, control of blood pressure, or need for dialysis. The stented populations were also more likely to suffer from complications caused by the procedure such as bleeding, cholesterol embolisation and flash pulmonary oedema. CONCLUSION There is no evidence for the use of renal artery stenting over optimal medical management in the treatment of patients with symptomatic atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis, irrelevant of the degree of stenosis. In the setting of EVAR, prevention of deterioration of renal function should be with involvement of the renal physicians, adequate hydration, and use of minimal contrast agent. Repair should be undertaken in centres with access to 24-hour haemofiltration services.
