Wong S, Selby PR, Reuter SE. Determination of a vancomycin nephrotoxicity threshold and assessment of target attainment in hematology patients. Pharmacol Res Perspect 2024; 12:e1231. [PMID: 38940223 PMCID: PMC11211924 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.1231] [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: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
An area-under-the-curve (AUC24)-based approach is recommended to guide vancomycin therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), yet trough concentrations are still commonly used despite associated risks. A definitive toxicity target is lacking, which is important for hematology patients who have a higher risk of nephrotoxicity. The aims were to (1) assess the impact of trough-based TDM on acute kidney injury (AKI) incidence, (2) establish a vancomycin nephrotoxicity threshold, and (3) evaluate the proportion of hematology patients achieving vancomycin therapeutic targets. Retrospective data was collected from 100 adult patients with a hematological malignancy or aplastic anemia who received vancomycin between April 2020 and January 2021. AKI occurrence was determined based on serum creatinine concentrations, and individual pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated using a Bayesian approach. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to assess the ability of pharmacokinetic indices to predict AKI occurrence. The proportion of patients who achieved target vancomycin exposure was evaluated based on an AUC24/MIC ≥400 and the determined toxicity threshold. The incidence of AKI was 37%. ROC curve analysis indicated a maximum AUC24 of 644 mg.h/L over the treatment period was an important predictor of AKI. By Day 4 of treatment, 29% of treatment courses had supratherapeutic vancomycin exposure, with only 62% of courses achieving AUC24 targets. The identified toxicity threshold supports an AUC24 target range of 400-650 mg.h/L, assuming an MIC of 1 mg/L, to optimize vancomycin efficacy and minimize toxicity. This study highlights high rates of AKI in this population and emphasizes the importance of transitioning from trough-based TDM to an AUC-based approach to improve clinical outcomes.

Global burden of anticancer drug-induced acute kidney injury and tubulointerstitial nephritis from 1967 to 2023. Sci Rep 2024; 14:16124. [PMID: 38997405 PMCID: PMC11245615 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67020-x] [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: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aims to figure out the worldwide prevalence of anticancer therapy-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) and tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) and the relative risk of each cancer drug. We conducted an analysis of VigiBase, the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database, 1967-2023 via disproportionate Bayesian reporting method. We further categorized the anticancer drugs into four groups: cytotoxic therapy, hormone therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Reporting odds ratio (ROR) and information component (IC) compares observed and expected values to investigate the associations of each category of anticancer drugs with AKI and TIN. We identified 32,722 and 2056 reports (male, n = 17,829 and 1,293) of anticancer therapy-associated AKI and TIN, respectively, among 4,592,036 reports of all-drug caused AKI and TIN. There has been a significant increase in reports since 2010, primarily due to increased reports of targeted therapy and immunotherapy. Immunotherapy exhibited a significant association with both AKI (ROR: 8.92; IC0.25: 3.06) and TIN (21.74; 4.24), followed by cytotoxic therapy (7.14; 2.68), targeted therapy (5.83; 2.40), and hormone therapy (2.59; 1.24) for AKI, and by cytotoxic therapy (2.60; 1.21) and targeted therapy (1.54; 0.61) for TIN. AKI and TIN were more prevalent among individuals under 45 years of age, with a female preponderance for AKI and males for TIN. These events were reported in close temporal relationship after initiation of the respective drug (16.53 days for AKI and 27.97 days for TIN), and exhibited a high fatality rate, with 23.6% for AKI and 16.3% for TIN. These findings underscore that kidney-related adverse drug reactions are of prognostic significance and strategies to mitigate such side effects are required to optimize anticancer therapy.

[PMID: 38957461 PMCID: PMC11217173 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1396124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune dysfunction characterized by an exaggerated and pathological inflammatory response, potentially leading to systemic inflammatory reactions and multiple-organ failure, including renal involvement. HLH can be classified as primary or secondary, with primary HLH associated with genetic mutations affecting cell degranulation capacity, and secondary HLH often linked to infections, tumors, and autoimmune diseases. The pathogenesis of HLH is not fully understood, but primary HLH is typically driven by genetic defects, whereas secondary HLH involves the activation of CD8+ T cells and macrophages, leading to the release of inflammatory cytokines and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). The clinical presentation of HLH includes non-specific manifestations, making it challenging to differentiate from severe sepsis, particularly secondary HLH due to infections. Shared features include prolonged fever, hepatosplenomegaly, hematopenia, hepatic dysfunction, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypofibrinogenemia, along with histiocytosis and hemophagocytosis. However, distinctive markers like dual hemocytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypofibrinogenemia, and elevated sCD25 levels may aid in differentiating HLH from sepsis. Indeed, no singular biomarker effectively distinguishes between hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and infection. However, research on combined biomarkers provides insights into the differential diagnosis. Renal impairment is frequently encountered in both HLH and sepsis. It can result from a systemic inflammatory response triggered by an influx of inflammatory mediators, from direct damage caused by these factors, or as a consequence of the primary disease process. For instance, macrophage infiltration of the kidney can lead to structural damage affecting various renal components, precipitating disease. Presently, tubular necrosis remains the predominant form of renal involvement in HLH-associated acute kidney injury (HLH-AKI). However, histopathological changes may also encompass interstitial inflammation, glomerular abnormalities, microscopic lesions, and thrombotic microangiopathy. Treatment approaches for HLH and sepsis diverge significantly. HLH is primarily managed with repeated chemotherapy to eliminate immune-activating stimuli and suppress hypercellularity. The treatment approach for sepsis primarily focuses on anti-infective therapy and intensive symptomatic supportive care. Renal function significantly influences clinical decision-making, particularly regarding the selection of chemotherapy and antibiotic dosages, which can profoundly impact patient prognosis. Conversely, renal function recovery is a complex process influenced by factors such as disease severity, timely diagnosis, and the intensity of treatment. A crucial aspect in managing HLH-AKI is the timely diagnosis, which plays a pivotal role in reversing renal impairment and creating a therapeutic window for intervention, may have opportunity to improve patient prognosis. Understanding the clinical characteristics, underlying causes, biomarkers, immunopathogenesis, and treatment options for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with acute kidney injury (HLH-AKI) is crucial for improving patient prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The role of beta2-microglobulin (β2-MG) in predicting acute kidney injury (AKI) in hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patients has been poorly studied. This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patients and identify risk factors that predict AKI development. METHODS This retrospective observational cohort study conducted at a single-center involved 938 patients diagnosed with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, who were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group. Patient data were collected and analyzed using univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression to identify potiential risk factors associated with AKI occurrence. RESULTS: Among the enrolled patients, 486 were male (51.9%), the median age was 37 years (interquartile range, 28.0, 52.0), 58.4% experienced AKI. Mechanical ventilation (8.0% vs. 0.8%) and vasopressor support (21.7% vs. 4.1%) occurred at significantly higher rates in the AKI group compared to the non-AKI group, with significantly higher in-hospital mortality (5.5% vs. 1.3%) and 28-day mortality (12.8% vs. 5.4%). When β2-MG was used as a continuous variable, multifactorial analysis showed that β2-MG, transplantation, and vasopressor support were independently associated with risk for the development of AKI. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of morbidity and mortality in patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis complicated by AKI remains high. Monitoring levels of β2-MG may provide clinicians with timely indicators of changes in renal function, facilitating adjustments to treatment strategies.

Abstract
Due to higher survival rates with good quality of life, related to new treatments in the fields of oncology, hematology, and transplantation, the number of immunocompromised patients is increasing. But these patients are at high risk of intensive care unit admission because of numerous complications. Acute respiratory failure due to severe community-acquired pneumonia is one of the leading causes of admission. In this setting, the need for invasive mechanical ventilation is up to 60%, associated with a high hospital mortality rate of around 40 to 50%. A wide range of pathogens according to the reason of immunosuppression is associated with severe pneumonia in those patients: documented bacterial pneumonia represents a third of cases, viral and fungal pneumonia both account for up to 15% of cases. For patients with an undetermined etiology despite comprehensive diagnostic workup, the hospital mortality rate is very high. Thus, a standardized diagnosis strategy should be defined to increase the diagnosis rate and prescribe the appropriate treatment. This review focuses on the benefit-to-risk ratio of invasive or noninvasive strategies, in the era of omics, for the management of critically ill immunocompromised patients with severe pneumonia in terms of diagnosis and oxygenation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Acute kidney injury (AKI) has emerged as an important toxicity among patients with advanced cancer treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The aim of this study was to describe the incidence, risk factors and mortality of AKI in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with another form of immunotherapy or chemotherapy. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We included all patients who received immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with another form of immunotherapy or chemotherapy at AC Camargo Cancer Center from January 2015 to December 2019. AKI was defined as a ≥ 1.5 fold increase in creatinine from baseline within 12 months of immune checkpoint inhibitor initiation. We assessed the association between baseline demographics, comorbidities, medications and risk of AKI using a competing risk model, considering death as a competing event. RESULTS We included 614 patients in the analysis. The mean age was 58.4 ± 13.5 years, and the mean baseline creatinine was 0.8 ± 0.18 mg/dL. AKI occurred in 144 (23.5%) of the patients. The most frequent AKI etiologies were multifactorial (10.1%), hemodynamic (8.8%) and possibly immunotherapy-related (3.6%). The likelihood of AKI was greater in patients with genitourinary cancer (sHR 2.47 95% CI 1.34-4.55 p < 0.01), with a prior AKI history (sHR 2.1 95% CI 1.30-3.39 p < 0.01) and taking antibiotics (sHR 2.85 95% CI 1.54-5.27 p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS In this study, genitourinary cancer, previous AKI and antibiotics use were associated with a higher likelihood of developing AKI.

Abstract
Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a rare hematologic disorder that infrequently causes acute kidney injury (AKI). CMML can transform into acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which can be accompanied by a deterioration in kidney function. However, severe AKI due to extramedullary manifestations of AML is rare. Herein, we present the case of a 67-year-old male patient with CMML that transformed into AML with severe AKI necessitating hemodialysis. The cause of the AKI was the AML transformation. The patient, with stable kidney function after chemotherapy for CMML, presented with a sudden decline in kidney function. Hemodialysis was initiated because of severe AKI, and histopathologic evaluation of the kidney biopsy specimen revealed severe, diffuse mixed inflammatory cell infiltrates in the interstitium and c-kit-immunopositive myeloblast-like cells. A bone marrow biopsy was performed because of the kidney biopsy findings suggesting that leukemic infiltration led to the diagnosis of AML. The patient received chemotherapy for AML, and his kidney function recovered. As illustrated in this case, severe AKI can develop as an early extramedullary manifestation during transformation from CMML to AML. Therefore, in patients with CMML and rapidly declining renal function, transformation into AML should be considered and histopathologically confirmed by kidney biopsy.

Abstract
Patients with hematological malignancies (HMs) are at high risk of infections and comorbidities that substantially increase the occurrence of renal failure. Thus, the management of renal dysfunction in patients with HMs is crucial. The current study aimed to determine the incidence of renal involvement in patients with HMs and analyze their clinical profile in the context of renal disorders. A prospective observational study was conducted on 200 patients suffering from various HMs. Renal involvement was determined through blood and urine analyses. The mean age of the patients was 51.84 ± 17.47 years, with the male-to-female ratio being 1.5:1. Multiple myeloma (MM) (30.5%) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) (30.5%) were the most commonly observed types of HM, whereas plasmacytoma (1%) was the least observed. Moreover, 39.5% and 16.5% of patients were diagnosed with moderate and severe anemia, respectively. Mean calcium, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen levels were 8.97 ± 1.19 mg/dL, 1.41 ± 1.37 mg/dL, and 16.83 ± 14.50 mg/dL, respectively. Mean sodium, potassium, and uric acid levels were 135.49 ± 6.79 mEq/L, 4.157 ± 0.65 mEq/L, and 5.81 ± 2.82 mg/dL, respectively. Twelve percent of the patients (24 out of 200) presented with renal insufficiency and nephrotic syndrome. Ten patients were diagnosed with NHL, 10 patients with MM, two with chronic myeloid leukemia, and two with acute myeloid leukemia. The causes of renal impairment in most cases were patchy interstitial lymphoid infiltrates, cast nephropathy, acute tubular necrosis, and minimal change disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In onco-nephrology, data on acute kidney injury (AKI) among children with haematological malignancies are scarce. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of all patients in Hong Kong diagnosed with haematological malignancies from 2019 to 2021 before 18 years of age, was conducted to investigate the epidemiology, risk factors and clinical outcomes of AKI during the first year of treatment. AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. RESULTS We included 130 children with haematological malignancy at median age of 9.4 years (IQR, 3.9-14.1). Of these patients, 55.4% were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), 26.9% were lymphoma and 17.7% were acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Thirty-five patients (26.9%) developed 41 AKI episodes during the first year of diagnosis, corresponding to 32 episodes per 100-patient-year. A total of 56.1% and 29.2% of the AKI episodes occurred during induction and consolidation chemotherapy respectively. Septic shock (n = 12, 29.2%) was the leading cause of AKI; 21 episodes (51.2%) were stage 3 AKI; 12 episodes (29.3%) were stage 2 AKI; and 6 patients required continuous kidney replacement therapies. Tumor lysis syndrome and impaired baseline kidney function were significantly associated with AKI on multivariate analysis (P = 0.01). History of AKI was associated with chemotherapy postponement (37.1% vs. 16.8%, P = 0.01), worse 12-month patient survival (77.1% vs. 94.7%, log rank P = 0.002) and lower disease remission rate at 12-month (68.6% vs. 88.4%, P = 0.007), compared to patients without AKI. CONCLUSION AKI is a common complication during treatment of haematological malignancies which is associated with worse treatment outcomes. A regular and dedicated surveillance program for at-risk patients should be studied in children with haematological malignancies for prevention and early detection of AKI.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a lymphoproliferative disorder often diagnosed after incidental finding of leukocytosis. Renal involvement is usually clinically silent. Symptomatic renal impairment due to CLL/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) cell infiltration in the kidney tissue is uncommon, and acute kidney injury (AKI) as a presenting feature is rare. In this case report, we describe the case of a patient with AKI caused by CLL/SLL infiltration as a presenting feature. Our report highlights the possibility of kidney injury as the first evident symptom of CLL/SLL. Kidney biopsy is the mainstay in these cases in order to establish a diagnosis. Treatment with zanubrutinib resulted in improved kidney function.

Abstract
The prevalence of CKD may be higher in patients with cancer than in those without due to the addition of cancer-specific risk factors to those already present for CKD. In this review, we describe the evaluation of kidney function in patients undergoing anticancer drug therapy. When anticancer drug therapy is administered, kidney function is evaluated to (1) set the dose of renally excretable drugs, (2) detect kidney disease associated with the cancer and its treatment, and (3) obtain baseline values for long-term monitoring. Owing to some requirements for use in clinical practice, a GFR estimation method such as the Cockcroft-Gault, MDRD, CKD-EPI, and the Japanese Society of Nephrology's GFR estimation formula has been developed that is simple, inexpensive, and provides rapid results. However, an important clinical question is whether they can be used as a method of GFR evaluation in patients with cancer. When designing a drug dosing regimen in consideration of kidney function, it is important to make a comprehensive judgment, recognizing that there are limitations regardless of which estimation formula is used or if GFR is directly measured. Although CTCAEs are commonly used as criteria for evaluating kidney disease-related adverse events that occur during anticancer drug therapy, a specialized approach using KDIGO criteria or other criteria is required when nephrologists intervene in treatment. Each drug is associated with the different disorders related to the kidney. And various risk factors for kidney disease associated with each anticancer drug therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) and its most serious complication, acute kidney injury (AKI) are one of the emergency conditions in onco-hematology. It is difficult to predict the degree of kidney involvement. Therefore, we studied children with leukemia and lymphoma treated in four Hungarian tertiary centers (inpatient university clinics) retrospectively (2006-2016) from a nephrological aspect. METHOD Data of 31 pediatric patients were obtained from electronic- and paper-based medical records. Physical status, laboratory test results, treatments, and outcomes were assessed. Patients were analyzed according to both "traditional" TLS groupings, as laboratory TLS or clinical TLS, and nephrological aspect based on pRIFLE classification, as mild or severe AKI. RESULTS Significant differences were found between the changes in parameters of phosphate homeostasis and urea levels in both classifications. Compared to age-specific normal phosphate ranges, before the development of TLS, hypophosphatemia was common (19/31 cases), while in the post-TLS period, hyperphosphatemia was observed (26/31 cases) most frequently. The rate of daily change in serum phosphate level was significant in the nephrological subgroups, but peaks of serum phosphate level show only a moderate increase. The calculated cut-off value of daily serum phosphate level increased before AKI was 0.32 mmol/L per ROC analysis for severe TLS-AKI. The 24-h urinalysis data of eight patients revealed transiently increased phosphate excretion only in those patients with TLS in whom serum phosphate was elevated in parallel. CONCLUSION Daily serum phosphate level increase can serve as a prognostic factor for the severity of pediatric TLS, as well as predict the severity of kidney involvement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Renal events are common in cancer patients and malignancy is a prevalent complication in both patients transplanted and under kidney replacement therapy (KRT). In recent years, onco-nephrology has been developed as a subspecialty whose scope has not been well established yet. The aim of our study was to assess resident and senior physicians' knowledge and expectations about onco-nephrology. METHODS AND MATERIALS Two anonymous self-administered online questionnaires were developed by a multidisciplinary team and distributed to French residents and senior physicians. RESULTS Two hundred twenty-eight physicians answered the survey, including 128 (56%) nephrologists, of which 98 (43%) were senior physicians and 130 (57%) were residents. Nephrologists rated their confidence in their ability to face onco-nephrological situation at 6/10 (interquartile range (IQR) 4.0-7.0) and oncologists at 6.0/10 (5.0-7.0). Managing cancer drugs in patients on KRT or in transplanted patients and discussion about introducing dialysis in cancer patients were designated as the most challenging topics. Asking if they had received appropriate learning, residents' median agreement was ranked at 3.0/10 (2.0-4.0). Forty-six percent of the respondents considered available resources as not appropriate. Specialized onco-nephrology consultations were accessible for 21% of the respondents. Finally, respondents thought there is a strong need for a national working group (8.3/10) with 87% of them expecting new reliable guidelines. CONCLUSION The present survey revealed physicians' expectations about onco-nephrology implementation in France. An appropriate answer could be the creation of a national working group. Therefore, GRIFON (Groupe de Recherche Interdisciplinaire en OncoNéphrologie) has recently been created.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic renal failure, and tubular abnormalities represent the kidney disease spectrum of malignancy. Prompt diagnosis and treatment may prevent or reverse these complications. The pathogenesis of AKI in cancer is multifactorial. AKI affects outcomes in cancer, oncological therapy withdrawal, increased hospitalization rate, and hospital stay. Renal function derangement can be recovered with early detection and targeted therapy of cancers. Identifying patients at higher risk of renal damage and implementing preventive measures without sacrificing the benefits of oncological therapy improve survival. Multidisciplinary approaches, such as relieving obstruction, hydration, etc., are required to minimize the kidney injury rate. Different keywords, texts, and phrases were used to search Google, EMBASE, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar for related original and review articles that serve the article's aim well. In this nonsystematic article, we aimed to review the published data on cancer-associated kidney complications, their pathogenesis, management, prevention, and the latest updates. Kidney involvement in cancer occurs due to tumor therapy, direct kidney invasion by tumor, or tumor complications. Early diagnosis and therapy improve the survival rate. Pathogenesis of cancer-related kidney involvement is different and complicated. Clinicians' awareness of all the potential causes of cancer-related complications is essential, and a kidney biopsy should be conducted to confirm the kidney pathologies. Chronic kidney disease is a known complication in malignancy and therapies. Hence, avoiding nephrotoxic drugs, dose standardization, and early cancer detection are mandatory measures to prevent renal involvement.

Abstract
Hyperleukocytosis is associated with a significant early mortality rate in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To date, no controlled trial has ever evaluated a strategy to reduce this risk, and the initial management of these patients remains heterogeneous worldwide. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of a short course of intravenous dexamethasone on the early outcomes of patients with hyperleukocytic AML with white blood cell (WBC) count above 50 × 109/L. Clinical and biological data of all consecutive patients (1997-2017) eligible for intensive chemotherapy from a single center were retrospectively collected. A total of 251 patients with a median age of 51 years and a median WBC count of 120 × 109/L were included, 95 of whom received dexamethasone. Patients treated with dexamethasone had higher WBC count and a more severe disease compared with those who did not, and they presented more often with leukostasis and hypoxemia, resulting in a more frequent need for life-sustaining therapies (p < 0.001). To account for these imbalances, patients were compared after adjusting for a propensity score, which included all variables with a prognostic influence in the overall cohort. In the matched cohort, dexamethasone was associated with lower early death (OR = 0.34, p = 0.0026) and induction failure rate (OR = 0.44, p = 0.02) and better overall survival (HR = 0.60, p = 0.011), with no impact on relapse risk (cHR = 0.73, p = 0.39). The overall survival benefit was confirmed among all tested subgroups. This study suggests that dexamethasone administration is safe and associated with a lower risk of induction mortality in patients with hyperleukocytic AML and deserves prospective evaluation.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical comorbidity with clear short-term and long-term prognostic implications for inpatients. The diversity of risk factors for AKI has been recognized in previous studies, and a series of predictive models have been developed using traditional statistical methods in conjunction with its preventability, but they have failed to meet the expectations in limited clinical applications, the rapid spread of electronic health records and artificial intelligence machine learning technology has brought new hope for the construction of AKI prediction models. In this article, we systematically review the definition and classification of machine learning methods, modeling ideas and evaluation methods, and the characteristics and current status of modeling studies. According to the modeling objectives, we subdivided them into critical care medical setting models, all medical environment models, special surgery models, special disease models, and special nephrotoxin exposure models. As the first review article to comprehensively summarize and analyze machine learning prediction models for AKI, we aim to objectively describe the advantages and disadvantages of machine learning approaches to modeling, and help other researchers more quickly and intuitively understand the current status of modeling research, inspire ideas and learn from experience, so as to guide and stimulate more research and more in-depth exploration in the future, which will ultimately provide greater help to improve the overall status of AKI diagnosis and treatment.

Successful Treatment of Acute Uric Acid Nephropathy with Rasburicase in a Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma Patient Showing a Dramatic Response to Methotrexate—Case Report. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11195548. [PMID: 36233415 PMCID: PMC9571497 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11195548] [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: 07/19/2022] [Revised: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSLs) are sensitive to chemotherapy. The standard treatment is high-dose methotrexate (MTX)-based chemotherapy. There are no reports of successful treatment of acute uric acid nephropathy with rasburicase after MTX administration in PCNSLs. Case presentation: A 54-year-old man with a history of gout presented with a change in character and cognitive dysfunction. MRI showed a large enhancing mass spanning the bilateral frontal lobes and the right temporal lobe. After endoscopic biopsy, an MTX, procarbazine, and vincristine (MPV) regimen was initiated for the treatment of the PCNSL. After the initiation of chemotherapy, the patient experienced a gout attack, and blood examination revealed acute renal failure (ARF) and hyperuricemia. The considered causes of ARF included MTX toxicity and acute uric acid nephropathy. As the dramatic effect of MTX was observed, treatment was continued despite ARF, most probably due to acute hyperuricemia due to tumor lysis, which was treated in parallel. After an improvement in renal function, MTX was resumed, and rasburicase was initiated to control hyperuricemia. A complete response was obtained after induction chemotherapy. Hyperuricemia was controlled with rasburicase, and renal function was preserved. Conclusions: Acute uric acid nephropathy should be considered when ARF occurs after the initiation of MTX in PCNSLs, especially in newly diagnosed PCNSL patients with large tumors or hyperuricemia.

Abstract
Advances in cancer therapy have significantly improved overall patient survival; however, AKI remains a common complication in patients with cancer, occurring in anywhere from 11% to 22% of patients, depending on patient-related or cancer-specific factors. Critically ill patients with cancer as well as patients with certain malignancies (e.g., leukemias, lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and renal cell carcinoma) are at highest risk of developing AKI. AKI may be a consequence of the underlying malignancy itself or from the wide array of therapies used to treat it. Cancer-associated AKI can affect virtually every compartment of the nephron and can present as subclinical AKI or as overt acute tubular injury, tubulointerstitial nephritis, or thrombotic microangiopathy, among others. AKI can have major repercussions for patients with cancer, potentially jeopardizing further eligibility for therapy and leading to greater morbidity and mortality. This review highlights the epidemiology of AKI in critically ill patients with cancer, risk factors for AKI, and common pathologies associated with certain cancer therapies, as well as the management of AKI in different clinical scenarios. It highlights gaps in our knowledge of AKI in patients with cancer, including the lack of validated biomarkers, as well as evidence-based therapies to prevent AKI and its deleterious consequences.

Abstract
Renal dysfunction in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be multifactorial. We present the case of a 72‐year‐old male with relapsed myelomonocytic AML who presented with transient acute kidney injury (AKI) and severe persistent electrolyte derangements. In the setting of nephrotic‐range proteinuria and electrolyte wasting without significant albuminuria or glucosuria, a diagnosis of lysozymuria was made. Lysozymuria is a rare paraneoplastic complication of AML and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia characterized by lysozyme. This represents the first case of lysozymuria presenting primarily with refractory electrolyte derangements rather than severe AKI. Lysozymuria portends a poor clinical prognosis even with aggressive management.

Abstract
The incidence of hematologic malignancies is on the rise worldwide. Kidney disease is ubiquitous in patients with hematologic malignancies, encompassing a wide spectrum of disorders involving each kidney compartment, including the vasculature, tubules, interstitium, and glomerulus, and there is significant overlap of kidney involvement with each hematologic malignancy. Vascular disorders include both microvascular and macrovascular damage, via thrombotic microangiopathy, hyperleukocytosis, hyperviscosity, and cryoglobulinemia. The tubulointerstitial compartment may be affected by prerenal azotemia and acute tubular injury, but malignant infiltration, tumor lysis syndrome, extramedullary hematopoiesis, cast nephropathy, granulomatous interstitial nephritis, and lysozymuria should be considered in certain populations. Obstructive uropathy may occur due to nephrolithiasis or retroperitoneal fibrosis. Glomerular disorders, including membranoproliferative, membranous, minimal change, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, can rarely occur. By understanding how each compartment may be affected, care can best be optimized for these patients. In this review, we summarize the widely varied etiologies of kidney diseases stratified by kidney compartment and hematologic malignancy, focusing on demographics, pathology, pathophysiology, mechanism, and outcomes. We conclude with common electrolyte abnormalities associated with hematologic malignancies.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a life-threatening condition characterized by a rapid and transient decrease in kidney function. AKI is part of an array of conditions collectively defined as acute kidney diseases (AKD). In AKD, persistent kidney damage and dysfunction lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD) over time. A variety of insults can trigger AKI; however, chemotherapy-associated nephrotoxicity is increasingly recognized as a significant side effect of chemotherapy. New biomarkers are urgently needed to identify patients at high risk of developing chemotherapy-associated nephrotoxicity and subsequent AKI. However, a lack of understanding of cellular mechanisms that trigger chemotherapy-related nephrotoxicity has hindered the identification of effective biomarkers to date. In this review, we aim to (1) describe the known and potential mechanisms related to chemotherapy-induced AKI; (2) summarize the available biomarkers for early AKI detection, and (3) raise awareness of chemotherapy-induced AKI.

Abstract
Background Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is a life-threatening complication during the treatment of malignant neoplasia. We sought to describe characteristics and predictors of acute kidney injury (AKI), remission and mortality in high-risk TLS patients. In this retrospective monocentric study, we included all patients with the diagnosis of biological and/or clinical TLS from 2012 to 2018. The primary outcome was the prevalence of AKI during the acute phase of TLS. Secondary outcomes were overall mortality and remission of the underlying malignancy at 1 year. Results Among 153 patients with TLS, 123 (80.4%) patients experienced AKI and 83 (54.2%) required renal replacement therapy. mSOFA score (OR = 1.15, IC 95% [1.02–1.34]), age (OR = 1.05, IC 95% [1.02–1.08]) and male gender (OR = 6.79, IC 95% [2.59–19.44]) were associated with AKI. Rasburicase use (HR = 2.45, IC 95% [1.17–5.15]) was associated with remission of the underlying malignancy at 1 year. Parameters associated with mortality at 1 year were mechanical ventilation (HR = 1.96, IC 95% [1.02–3.78]), vasopressors (HR = 3.13, IC 95% [1.59–6.15]), age (HR = 1.02, IC 95% [1–1.03]), spontaneous TLS (HR = 1.65, IC 95% [1.01–2.69]) and delay of chemotherapy administration (HR = 1.01, IC 95% [1–1.03]). Conclusions AKI is highly prevalent in TLS patients. Rasburicase is associated with better outcomes regarding remission of the underlying malignancy. As rasburicase may be an indirect marker of a high degree of tumor lysis and chemosensitivity, more studies are warranted to confirm the protective role of urate oxidase. Delaying chemotherapy may be deleterious in terms of long-term outcomes. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13613-022-00990-1.

Abstract
Introduction. Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a critical issue for cancer patients despite recent treatment improvements. This study aimed to assess the incidence of AKI in cancer patients and its related risk factors. Methods. A Retrospective cohort study was conducted at tertiary hospitals in the period 2016–2018. A data abstraction sheet was used to collect related variables from patients’ records. During admission, the incidence of AKI was assessed using creatinine measurements. RIFLE criteria were used to classify it into five categories of severity: risk, injury, failure, loss, and end-stage renal disease. Results. Using RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, and End-stage renal disease) criteria, 6.9% of admissions were complicated with AKI. The severity of these fell into the categories of risk, injury, and failure, 3.3%, 1.7%, and 1.9%, respectively. In the multivariate model, the odds for developing AKI was significantly higher for patients with congestive heart failure (AOR = 17.1, 95% CI 1.7–80.1), chronic kidney disease (adjusted OR = 6.8, 95% CI 1.4–32.2 (
value 0.017)), sepsis (AOR = 4.4, 95% CI 1.9–10.1), hypercalcemia (AOR = 8.4, 95% CI 1.3–46.1), and admission to the ICU (AOR = 5.8, 95% CI 2.1–16.2). In addition, the mortality rate was nearly seven times higher for patients complicated by AKI (relative risk = 7.6, 95% CI 3.2–18.2). Conclusion. AKI was significantly associated with congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, sepsis, ICU admission, and hypercalcemia in cancer patients, resulting in poorer outcomes and higher mortality rates. AKI assessment for hospitalized cancer patients should be performed regularly, especially for patients at increased risk.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal tumors remain a global health problem. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication during the treatment of gastrointestinal tumors. AKI can cause a decrease in the remission rate and an increase in mortality. In this review, we analyzed the causes and risk factors for AKI in gastrointestinal tumor patients. The possible mechanisms of AKI were divided into three groups: pretreatment, intrafraction and post-treatment causes. Treatment and prevention measures were proposed according to various factors to provide guidance to clinicians and oncologists that can reduce the incidence of AKI and improve the quality of life and survival rate of gastrointestinal tumor patients.

Abstract
To respond to the legitimate questions raised by the application of invasive methods of monitoring and life-support techniques in cancer patients admitted in the ICU, the European Lung Cancer Working Party and the Groupe de Recherche Respiratoire en Réanimation Onco-Hématologique, set up a consensus conference. The methodology involved a systematic literature review, experts' opinion and a final consensus conference about nine predefined questions1. Which triage criteria, in terms of complications and considering the underlying neoplastic disease and possible therapeutic limitations, should be used to guide admission of cancer patient to intensive care units?2. Which ventilatory support [High Flow Oxygenation, Non-invasive Ventilation (NIV), Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV), Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO)] should be used, for which complications and in which environment?3. Which support should be used for extra-renal purification, in which conditions and environment?4. Which haemodynamic support should be used, for which complications, and in which environment?5. Which benefit of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in cancer patients and for which complications?6. Which intensive monitoring in the context of oncologic treatment (surgery, anti-cancer treatment …)?7. What specific considerations should be taken into account in the intensive care unit?8. Based on which criteria, in terms of benefit and complications and taking into account the neoplastic disease, patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit (or equivalent) should receive cellular elements derived from the blood (red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets)?9. Which training is required for critical care doctors in charge of cancer patients?

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We want to know the causes of AKI in oncology patients, including disease-related complications and the nephrotoxicity of chemotherapy drugs, in order to provide more useful clinical information. METHODS In this review, an electronic search of the English language literature was performed in the database PubMed, with the results enriched by manual searches and citation mining, factors investigated in the selected articles included acute kidney injury, oncology, chemotherapy, anticancer drug, antitumor drug. RESULTS According to the searched articles, we summarized the causes (including pre-renal, intrinsic renal, and post-renal lesion) of AKI in cancer patients and the corresponding management measures. Among the pre-renal factors we mainly described hypercalcemia, hematopoietic cell transplantation, post-renal factors we mainly described hemorrhagic cystitis, and intrinsic renal factors we mainly described thrombotic microangiopathy, chemotherapeutics, tumor lysis syndrome, cast nephropathy, in which the emphasis was on chemotherapy drug associated AKI and its treatment. CONCLUSIONS AKI is not uncommon in cancer patients, and has diverse causes and negative outcomes. Both nephrologists and oncologists need to be aware of the unique reasons of AKI in this population and its optimal management.

Abstract
Over the past 2 decades, significant research and advancements have been made in oncology and its therapeutics. Thanks to novel diagnostic methods, treatments, and supportive measures, patients with cancer live longer and have a better quality of life. However, an unforeseen consequence of this progress has been increasing medical complications, including acute kidney injury. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the epidemiology and most common causes of acute kidney injury in patients with cancer unrelated to oncological treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) may be a severe condition in immunocompromised patients and may require intensive care unit (ICU) admission. We aimed to describe the clinical spectrum of critically ill immunocompromised patients with GIB and identify risk factors associated with mortality and severe GIB defined by hemorrhagic shock, hyperlactatemia and/or the transfusion of more than 5 red blood cells units. Finally, we compared this cohort with a control population of non-immunocompromised admitted in ICU for GIB. RESULTS Retrospective study in 3 centers including immunocompromised patients with GIB admitted in ICU from January, 1st 2010 to December, 31rd 2019. Risk factors for mortality and severe GIB were assessed by logistic regression. Immunocompromised patients were matched with a control group of patients admitted in ICU with GIB. A total of 292 patients were analyzed in the study, including 141 immunocompromised patients (compared to a control group of 151 patients). Among immunocompromised patients, upper GIB was more frequent (73%) than lower GIB (27%). By multivariate analysis, severe GIB was associated with male gender (OR 4.48, CI95% 1.75-11.42, p = 0.00), upper GIB (OR 2.88, CI95% 1.11-7.46, p = 0.03) and digestive malignant infiltration (OR 5.85, CI95% 1.45-23.56, p = 0.01). Conversely, proton pump inhibitor treatment before hospitalization was significantly associated with decreased risk of severe GIB (OR 0.25, IC95% 0.10-0.65, p < 0.01). Fifty-four patients (38%) died within 90 days. By multivariate analysis, mortality was associated with hemorrhagic shock (OR 2.91, IC95% 1.33-6.38, p = 0 .01), upper GIB (OR 4.33, CI95% 1.50-12.47, p = 0.01), and long-term corticosteroid therapy before admission (OR 2.98, CI95% 1.32-6.71, p = 0.01). Albuminemia (per 5 g/l increase) was associated with lower mortality (OR 0.54, IC95% 0.35-0.84, p = 0.01). After matching with a control group of non-immunocompromised patients, severity of bleeding was increased in immunocompromised patients, but mortality was not different between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION Mortality is high in immunocompromised patients with GIB in ICU, especially in patients receiving long term corticosteroids. Mortality of GIB is not different from mortality of non-immunocompromised patients in ICU. The prophylactic administration of proton pump inhibitors should be considered in this population.

[PMID: 34439336 PMCID: PMC8393922 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13164182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 08/10/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication among oncology patients associated with lower remission rates and higher mortality. To reduce the impact of this condition, we aimed to predict AKI earlier than existing tools, to allow clinical intervention before occurrence. We trained a random forest model on 597,403 routinely collected blood test results from 48,865 patients undergoing cancer treatment at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust between January 2017 and May 2020, to identify AKI events upcoming in the next 30 days. AKI risk levels were assigned to upcoming AKI events and tested through a prospective analysis between June and August 2020. The trained model gave an AUROC of 0.881 (95% CI 0.878-0.883), when assessing predictions per blood test for AKI occurrences within 30 days. Assigning risk levels and testing the model through prospective validation from the 1st June to the 31st August identified 73.8% of patients with an AKI event before at least one AKI occurrence, 61.2% of AKI occurrences. Our results suggest that around 60% of AKI occurrences experienced by patients undergoing cancer treatment could be identified using routinely collected blood results, allowing clinical remedial action to be taken and disruption to treatment by AKI to be minimised.

Abstract
Uric acid drives acute kidney injury in tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). This study investigated the relationship between uric acid and changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in adults at risk for TLS. Linear regression was used to evaluate the relationship between uric acid area under the curve (AUC) and percent change in eGFR from baseline at hospital dismissal, 1 and 3 months. In 210 included participants, each 100 mg*hour/dL increase in 24 h AUC was associated with an average decline in eGFR at hospital dismissal of 9% (95%CI 3, 15) in univariate analysis. Each 100 mg*hour/dL increase in 24 h AUC was independently associated with an average decline in eGFR of 8% (95%CI 2, 13) at 1 month after dismissal. Additional research is needed to confirm these findings and determine whether treatments that reduce overall uric acid exposure improve kidney outcomes. Preserving kidney health could favorably impact cancer treatment eligibility, tolerability, and outcomes.

Abstract
Current advances in cancer chemotherapeutics have remarkably helped in rapid and definitive treatment options. However, these potent chemotherapeutics have been associated with severe renal toxicities that later impact treatment options. Acute kidney injury is common in patients with cancer. In hospitalized patients with cancer, acute kidney injury is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, length of stay, and costs. This article provides an overview of acute kidney injury caused by cancer or its treatment, including prerenal, tubular, glomerular diseases, infiltrative disease, tumor lysis syndrome, anticancer drug nephrotoxicity, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation-related acute kidney injury, and cancer-associated thrombotic microangiopathy.

Abstract
Introduction Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects 30% of adults hospitalized with hematologic malignancy. Little is known about the long-term impact on kidney outcomes in this population despite the close relationship between kidney function and malignancy treatment eligibility. The purpose of this population-based cohort study was to determine the effect of AKI on kidney function in the year following a new diagnosis of acute leukemia or lymphoma. Methods Participants were adults hospitalized within 3 weeks of malignancy diagnosis. Baseline kidney function was determined and AKI diagnosed using standardized criteria. Cox proportional hazard modeling examined the relationship between AKI and a ≥30% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline in the 1 year following hospitalization as the primary endpoint. Results AKI occurred in 33% of 1064 participants, with 70% of episodes occurring within 48 hours of hospitalization, and significantly increased risk for a ≥ 30% decline in eGFR (hazard ratio [HR] 2.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.2–3.5) and incident chronic kidney disease (HR 2.2, 95% CI 1.7–2.8). AKI remained a significant predictor of eGFR decline in subgroup and multivariable analyses (adjusted HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.4–2.7). A ≥ 30% decline in eGFR increased the risk for death within 1 year in participants with AKI (HR 2.1, 95% CI 1.3–3.3). Conclusion Results aid in identifying individuals at highest risk for poor outcomes and highlight the need for research involving interventions that preserve kidney function from the time of initial hospitalization with a hematologic malignancy into the postdischarge period.

Abstract
Purpose Acute kidney injury (AKI) in cancer patients is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The incidence of AKI in lung cancer seems to be relatively higher compared with other solid organ malignancies, although its impact on patient outcomes remains unclear. Materials and Methods The patients newly diagnosed with lung cancer from 2004 to 2013 were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study. The patients were categorized according to the presence and severity of AKI. We compared all-cause mortality and long-term renal outcome according to AKI stage. Results A total of 3,202 patients were included in the final analysis. AKI occurred in 1,783 (55.7%) patients during the follow-up period, with the majority having mild AKI stage 1 (75.8%). During the follow-up of 2.6±2.2 years, total 1,251 patients (53.7%) were died and 5-year survival rate was 46.9%. We found that both AKI development and severity were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality in lung cancer patients, even after adjustment for lung cancer-specific variables including the stage or pathological type. In addition, patients suffered from more severe AKI tend to encounter de novo chronic kidney disease development, worsening kidney function, and end-stage kidney disease progression. Conclusion In this study, more than half of the lung cancer patients experienced AKI during their diagnosis and treatment period. Moreover, AKI occurrence and more advanced AKI were associated with a higher mortality risk and adverse kidney outcomes.

Abstract
The bidirectional relationship between cancer and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is complex. Patients with cancer, particularly those with hematological malignancies such as multiple myeloma and lymphoma, are at increased risk of developing acute kidney injury and CKD. On the other hand, emerging evidence from large observational registry analyses have consistently shown that cancer risk is increased by at least 2- to 3-fold in kidney transplant recipients, and the observed increased risk occurs not only in those who have received kidney transplants but also in those on dialysis and with mild- to moderate-stage CKD. The interactions between cancer and CKD have raised major therapeutic and clinical challenges in the management of these patients. Given the magnitude of the problem and uncertainties, and current controversies within the existing evidence, Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) assembled a global panel of multidisciplinary clinical and scientific expertise for a controversies conference on onco-nephrology to identify key management issues in nephrology relevant to patients with malignancy. This report covers the discussed controversies in kidney disease in hematological malignancies, as well as cancer after kidney transplantation. An overview of future research priorities is also discussed.

Abstract
Patients with hematological malignancies might be at high risk for renal diseases as evidenced by earlier studies. We aim to investigate the mortality and risk factors of deaths due to renal diseases in this population. A total of 831 535 patients diagnosed with hematological malignancies in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database in the United States from 1975 to 2016 were identified. Standardized mortality ratio (SMR) was evaluated based on the general population's mortality data gathered by the National Center for Health Statistics. The mortality rate associated with renal diseases was 94.22/100 000 person-years among patients with hematological malignancies (SMR = 3.59; 95% CI, 3.48-3.70]). The highest mortality rate of dying from renal diseases was observed among multiple myeloma (MM) patients (307.99/100 000 person-years; SMR = 7.98; 95% CI, 7.49-8.50), followed by those with chronic myeloid leukemia (142.57/100 000 person-years; SMR = 6.54; 95% CI, 5.63-7.60) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (103.66/100 000 person-years; SMR = 2.51; 95% CI, 2.27-2.77). The SMRs increased with time and were found to be the highest 10 years after cancer diagnosis. Independent predictors associated with death from renal diseases were found to be older age, male gender, blacks, unmarried, and MM, using the Cox proportional hazards model. We call for enhanced coordinated multidisciplinary care between hematologists and nephrologists to reduce the mortality rate of renal diseases among patients with hematological malignancies.

Abstract
Purpose Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) constitutes 5–10% of all cases of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. However, data on the epidemiology and risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with newly diagnosed APL are lacking. This study determined the incidence rate of AKI during induction chemotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed APL and the risk factors for AKI. Patients and Methods We conducted a retrospective observational study of patients with newly diagnosed APL in the Shonan Kamakura General Hospital between April 2004 and April 2020. Data of 27 patients with newly diagnosed APL were analyzed. The patients were classified as no AKI and AKI stages 1, 2 or 3. Results The incidence rate of AKI during induction chemotherapy was 40% (11/27). Among patients who developed AKI, four patients experienced AKI stage 3, and two patients required renal replacement therapy. No significant differences were found in the white blood cell count and baseline renal function between the groups; however, D-dimer and C-reactive protein levels upon admission were significantly higher in patients with AKI than in patients without AKI. Among patients who developed AKI, in hospital mortality at 90 days was 36% (4/11), which was significantly higher than among patients without AKI (p = 0.02). Patients who developed AKI were administered vancomycin more frequently, while almost all blood culture results were negative. Conclusion Incidence of AKI development in patients with newly diagnosed APL during induction chemotherapy was approximately 40%. Moreover, patients who developed AKI tended to be administered vancomycin more frequently. Unnecessary use of vancomycin should be avoided in patients with newly diagnosed APL, and using alternative non-nephrotoxic drugs should be considered for patients at risk of AKI.

Abstract
We have examined potential changes in the isotopic compositions of Fe, Cu and Zn (using multi-collector inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry) and the corresponding concentrations (using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry) in plasma from hematological malignancy (HM) patients and assessed their prognostic capability. Together with clinical laboratory test values, data were examined in view of a 5-years survival prediction. Plasma Cu and Zn isotope ratios and their concentrations were significantly different in HM patients compared to matched controls (P < 0.05). Both δ65Cu and δ66Zn values showed significant mortality hazard ratios (HRs) in HM. The group of patients with decreased δ65Cu and increased δ66Zn values showed significantly poorer survival from the early phase (HR 3.9; P = 0.001), forming a unique cohort not identified based on laboratory test values. Well-known prognostic factors for HM, such as the creatinine level, and anemia-related values were highly correlated with the δ66Zn value (P < 0.05). Time-dependent ROC curves based on the δ65Cu or δ66Zn value were similar to that based on the creatinine concentration (a well-known prognostic factor in HM), indicating that δ65Cu or δ66Zn values are useful for prognosis of HM. Variations in stable isotope ratios of essential mineral elements have thus been shown to reflect alterations in their homeostasis due to physiological changes in malignancies with higher sensitivity than concentrations do.

Abstract
Characterized by bone marrow dysplasia and peripheral blood monocytosis, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is one of the most aggressive chronic leukemias and has a propensity for progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Patients with newly diagnosed AML generally present with symptoms related to complications of pancytopenia but can also present with renal insufficiency. We present a 79-year-old male with a past medical history of CMML and chronic kidney disease stage 3 (baseline creatinine 1.8 mg/dL) who presented with one day of inability to urinate and 20-lb unintentional weight loss, fatigue, and bone pain over 3 months. Laboratory evaluation revealed leukocytosis of 88.5 x 103/uL (normal 4.8–10.8 x 103/uL) with 24.0% monocytes on differential, creatinine 2.94 mg/dL (baseline creatinine 1.7–1.9 mg/dL), uric acid 19.8 mg/dL, potassium 4.0 mmol/L, phosphorus 4.0 mg/dL, calcium 9.2 mg/dL, and albumin 3.2 g/dL. Urinalysis was significant for protein 200 mg/dL, 20/LPF granular casts, and 7/LPF hyaline casts. Bone marrow biopsy revealed 20–30% blasts with monocytic features of differentiation consistent with acute myeloid leukemia. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis appreciated splenomegaly with retroperitoneal, and pelvic lymphadenopathy. Kidney failure can complicate the presentation of AML but can be rapidly reversible with treatment. In patients with CMML who have progressive renal insufficiency and hyperuricemia, there should be a high index of suspicion for progression to AML.

Abstract
Background High-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) is commonly used in the treatment of solid tumors and hematological malignancies. Severe toxicities are frequent, leading to organ dysfunction and death. Risk–benefit ratio of using HD-MTX in critically ill patients is unknown. This study aims to describe MTX-induced toxicities and to assess outcome in ICU patients. We conducted a retrospective single-center study conducted in a university hospital ICU between January 2002 and December 2018. Consecutive patients treated by HD-MTX were included. Results 33 patients (24 men and 9 women) aged 48 years [34–63], were included. B cell lymphoma had been diagnosed in 31 patients (Burkitt, n = 14; diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with CNS (central nervous system) involvement, n = 9; primary CNS lymphoma, n = 5) and T-cell lymphoma in two patients. Patients were mainly admitted for coma (n = 14; 42%) or acute kidney injury (n = 8; 24%). MTX was administered at a median dose of 6.1 g [5–14]. Fourteen patients had concomitant medication interacting with MTX. Median MTX clearance was 4 days [4–5]. Frequent MTX-related complication were mucositis (n = 21, 64%), diarrhea (n = 14, 44%) or hepatic failure (n = 15, 45%). During ICU stay, 11 patients experienced acute kidney injury (KDIGO stage 3 [2–3]). Two patients received carboxypeptidase and three underwent dialysis. Overall, 19 patients (57%) required mechanical ventilation, 10 (30%) vasopressors. Hospital mortality was 30% (n = 10). Cox model identified MTX concentration 24 h after administration higher than 4.6 µmol/L as associated with hospital mortality (HR 6.7; 95% CI 1.6–27.3). Conclusions To our knowledge, this is the first study assessing characteristics and outcome of critically ill patients receiving HD-MTX. MTX concentration at H24 was associated with hospital mortality. Despite underlying malignancy, ICU support of these patients was associated with a meaningful survival.

Abstract
Background In critically ill patients, acute kidney injury (AKI) is common and associated with short- and long-term complications. Our objectives were to describe the epidemiology and impact of AKI in cancer patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods We identified all patients with a haematological malignancy (HM) or solid tumour (ST) who had an emergency admission to the ICU in a tertiary care centre between January 2004 and July 2012. AKI was defined according to the KDIGO criteria. Results 429 patients were included of whom 259 (60%) had AKI. Among HM patients, 73 (78%) had AKI (70% AKI on admission to ICU; 7% during ICU stay); among ST patients, 186 (56%) had AKI (45% on admission to ICU, 11% during ICU stay). ICU and 28-day mortality rates were 33% and 48%, respectively in HM patients, and 22% and 31%, respectively in ST patients. Multivariable analysis showed that AKI was an independent risk factor for both ICU and 28-day mortality. New AKI after 24 hours in ICU was associated with higher mortality than AKI on admission. Conclusions AKI is common in critically ill cancer patients and independently associated with ICU and 28-day mortality.

Application of group LASSO regression based Bayesian networks in risk factors exploration and disease prediction for acute kidney injury in hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies. BMC Nephrol 2020; 21:162.

Abstract
Background Patients who were diagnosed with hematologic malignancies (HM) had a higher risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). This study applies the Bayesian networks (BNs) to investigate the interrelationships between AKI and its risk factors among HM patients, and to evaluate the predictive and inferential ability of BNs model in different clinical settings. Methods During 2014 and 2015, a total of 2501 inpatients with HM were recruited in this retrospective study conducted in a tertiary hospital, Shanghai of China. Patients’ demographics, medical history, clinical and laboratory records on admission were extracted from the electronic medical records. Candidate predictors of AKI were screened in the group-LASSO (gLASSO) regression, and then they were incorporated into BNs analysis for further interrelationship modeling and disease prediction. Results Of 2395 eligible patients with HM, 370 episodes were diagnosed with AKI (15.4%). Patients with multiple myeloma (24.1%) and leukemia (23.9%) had higher incidences of AKI, followed by lymphoma (13.4%). Screened by the gLASSO regression, variables as age, gender, diabetes, HM category, anti-tumor treatment, hemoglobin, serum creatinine (SCr), the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum uric acid, serum sodium and potassium level were found with significant associations with the occurrence of AKI. Through BNs analysis, age, hemoglobin, eGFR, serum sodium and potassium had directed connections with AKI. HM category and anti-tumor treatment were indirectly linked to AKI via hemoglobin and eGFR, and diabetes was connected with AKI by affecting eGFR level. BNs inferences concluded that when poor eGFR, anemia and hyponatremia occurred simultaneously, the patients’ probability of AKI was up to 78.5%. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of BNs model was 0.835, higher than that in the logistic score model (0.763). It also showed a robust performance in 10-fold cross-validation (AUC: 0.812). Conclusion Bayesian networks can provide a novel perspective to reveal the intrinsic connections between AKI and its risk factors in HM patients. The BNs predictive model could help us to calculate the probability of AKI at the individual level, and follow the tide of e-alert and big-data realize the early detection of AKI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with hematological malignancies (HM) require intensive chemotherapy with curative intent, especially in case of AML that results in more frequent admissions to Intensive Care Units (ICU). Due to our knowledge, this study is the first multicenter retrospective analysis in Polish population. METHODS A total of 200 patients with HM hospitalized in 4 Polish hematological centers. Data concerning clinical indices and outcomes during admission and ICU stay were collected retrospectively. RESULTS The most common hematological malignancy was acute leukemia (55%). The main cause of ICU admission was respiratory failure (88.5%), often accompanied by sepsis (58.5%) and acute renal failure (51.5%). In patients with hematological malignancies, the following factors were associated with ICU mortality: prolonged ICU stay (odd ratio [OR] = 6.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38-35.33, χ2 = 5.61, p = 0.02), the presence of acute respiratory failure (odd ratio [OR] = 5.35, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-28.46, χ2 = 3.93, p = 0.04), and the need for renal replacement therapy (odd ratio [OR] = 8.75, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.23-62.11, χ2 = 4.78, p = 0.03). There were following associations with in-hospital mortality in patients with hematological malignancies: prolonged ICU stay (odd ratio [OR] = 10.12, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.85-55.37, χ2 = 7.21, p = 0.008), the presence of acute respiratory failure (odd ratio [OR] =5.24, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.36-20.16, χ2 = 5.87, p = 0.02), the need for catecholamine support (odd ratio [OR] =3.43, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.06-11.05, χ2 = 4.32, p = 0.04), and renal replacement therapy (odd ratio [OR] =5.55, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-26.92, χ2 = 4.59, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated that ICU and in-hospital mortalities among patients with hematological malignancies are still poor, but easier access to the intensive care unit and close cooperation between hematologists and intensivists may improve outcomes. We have found that acute failure of key organs (acute respiratory failure, end-stage renal failure requires renal replacement therapy) and length of ICU stay (but probably no comorbidities and illness severity) may have impact on mortality (both ICU and in-hospital).

Abstract
The widespread use of combination antiretroviral therapies (cART) has converted the prognosis of HIV infection from a rapidly progressive and ultimately fatal disease to a chronic condition with limited impact on life expectancy. Yet, HIV-infected patients remain at high risk for critical illness due to the occurrence of severe opportunistic infections in those with advanced immunosuppression (i.e., inaugural admissions or limited access to cART), a pronounced susceptibility to bacterial sepsis and tuberculosis at every stage of HIV infection, and a rising prevalence of underlying comorbidities such as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, atherosclerosis or non-AIDS-defining neoplasms in cART-treated patients aging with controlled viral replication. Several patterns of intensive care have markedly evolved in this patient population over the late cART era, including a steady decline in AIDS-related admissions, an opposite trend in admissions for exacerbated comorbidities, the emergence of additional drivers of immunosuppression (e.g., anti-neoplastic chemotherapy or solid organ transplantation), the management of cART in the acute phase of critical illness, and a dramatic progress in short-term survival that mainly results from general advances in intensive care practices. Besides, there is a lack of data regarding other features of ICU and post-ICU care in these patients, especially on the impact of sociological factors on clinical presentation and prognosis, the optimal timing of cART introduction in AIDS-related admissions, determinants of end-of-life decisions, long-term survival, and functional outcomes. In this narrative review, we sought to depict the current evidence regarding the management of HIV-infected patients admitted to the intensive care unit.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is associated with high mortality rates. To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with AKI in patients undergoing HSCT during the infusion period, patients admitted for HSCT from 2012 to 2015 were studied. AKI was classified according to the KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) criteria. We analyzed the main comorbidities, underlying conditions, types of transplant, preparative regimens, and use of potentially nephrotoxic drugs as risk factors for AKI. Among the 180 patients (median age 53 years), 69 (36.5%) developed AKI (23 KDIGO 1, 28 KDIGO 2, and 18 KDIGO 3), 49 (50.0%) undergoing allogeneic and 20 (22.3%) autologous transplantation, and 18 (9.4%) required dialysis. The main comorbidities were hypertension (38; 19.8%), and diabetes (19; 9.9%). The median pre-transplant creatinine was 0.7 mg/dl. Twenty-one patients died (10.9%). The risk factors for AKI in allogeneic HSCT were as follows: baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (RR 1.12 (1.02-1.22), p = 0.019), use of vasopressors (RR 3.72 (2.20-6.29), p < 0.001), and use of methotrexate (RR 1.83 (1.08-3.11), p = 0.025). Male gender (RR 5.91 (1.65-21.16), p = 0.006), baseline eGFR (RR 1.22 (1.04-1.43), p = 0.011), and use of aminoglycosides (RR 3.92 (1.06-14.44), p = 0.041) were the risk factors for AKI associated with autologous HSCT. During hospitalization for HSCT, AKI was a common problem. The use of a low dose of methotrexate to prevent graft versus host disease was associated with its occurrence.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of neoplasias is associated with new clinical challenges, one of which is acute kidney injury (AKI). In addition to possibly constituting a clinical emergency, kidney failure significantly interferes with the choice and continuation of antineoplastic therapy, with prognostic implications in cancer patients. Some types of neoplasia are more susceptible to AKI, such as multiple myeloma and renal carcinoma. In cancer patients, AKI can be divided into pre-renal, renal (intrinsic), and post-renal. Conventional platinum-based chemotherapy and new targeted therapy agents against cancer are examples of drugs that cause an intrinsic renal lesion in this group of patients. This topic is of great importance to the daily practice of nephrologists and even constitutes a subspecialty in the field, the onco-nephrology.
