    Serum Interleukin-18 As an Early Marker of Acute Kidney Injury Following Open Heart Surgery
    (2014) Unal, Ertekin Utku; Ozen, Anil; Boysan, Emre; Tak, Sercan; Basar, Veysel; Turkcan, Basak Soran; Durukan, Elif; Tutun, Ufuk; Birincioglu, Cemal Levent; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8579-5564; AAJ-8621-2021
    Background: This study aims to investigate whether serum interleukin (IL)-18 is an early biomarker of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods: Thirty consecutive patients (22 males, 8 females; mean age 62.4 +/- 9.0 years; range 49 to 78 years) who underwent open-heart surgery were enrolled in this prospective study. Serum IL-18 concentrations were analyzed prior to induction of anesthesia, at weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and two hours after weaning from CPB. Serum creatinine levels were analyzed in the postoperative first, second, and third days. Acute kidney injury was defined as creatinine levels exceeding 50% of the basal value or exceeding the basal value by 0.3 mg/dl at 48 hours postoperatively. The patients were classified into two groups including AKI (n=12) and non-AKI (n=18). Serum IL-18 levels were compared between the groups. Results: Twelve patients (40%) developed AKI. The diagnosis was able to be made using the serum creatinine levels at 24 to 48 hours postoperatively. Although IL-18 concentrations at weaning from CPB decreased slightly in the AKI group, the decrease in the non-AKI presenting group was higher. Using univariate analyses, IL-18 concentrations at two hours after weaning from CPB were found to be related to AKI (p=0.031). The difference in serum IL-18 concentrations between the preoperative period and two hours after weaning from CPB were found to be statistically significant (p=0.017). According to the Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the threshold value for AKI prediction of serum IL-18 concentrations at two hours after weaning from CPB was 353.7 pg/ml with a sensitivity of 58.3% and a specificity of 83.3% (AUC=0.736). Conclusion: Serum IL-18 concentration may be used as a biochemical indicator for early detection of acute kidney injury following open heart surgery.

    Evaluation of acute kidney injury after surgery for congenital heart disease in neonates: a tertiary hospital experience
    (2022) Oktener Anuk, Ezgi; Erdogan, Ilkay; Ozkan, Murat; Baskin, Esra; Varan, Birgul; Tokel, Kursad N.; 0000-0001-6887-3033; 0000-0003-3991-8479; 35382696; ABB-2220-2021
    Purpose of the article Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) is a serious complication closely associated with high morbidity and mortality. Despite numerous studies on AKI in children, most studies have excluded neonates. We sought to characterize AKI associated with cardiac surgery in neonates, determine its incidence, perioperative and postoperative risk factors, and short-term results. Materials and methods This retrospective study included 177 neonates who were operated on for CHD in our hospital between January 2015 and December 2019. Data of the patients were analyzed according to nKDIGO (neonatal Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) and nRIFLE (neonatal Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of function, End-stage kidney disease) criteria for evaluating AKI retrospectively. Data of groups with and without AKI were analyzed. Results The average age of 177 neonates were 8.2 +/- 6.1 (1-28) days. Twenty-two (12.4%) neonates had CS-AKI defined according to nKDIGO criteria. Four (2.3%) neonates reached nKDIGO stage I, 1 (0.6%) reached stage II, 17 (9.6%) reached stage III. Thirty-eight (21.5%) neonates had CS-AKI defined according to nRIFLE criteria. Twenty-four (13.6%) neonates reached nRIFLE stage risk(R), 6 (3.4%) reached stage injury(I), 8 (4.5%) reached stage failure (F). The incidence of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) in neonates was 12.5% and 21.5% for nKDIGO and nRIFLE, respectively. The percentage difference between nKDIGO and nRIFLE for AKI assessment was due to the criteria for nRIFLE stage risk(R) urine output < 1.5 mL/kg/h for 24 h. In both classifications, the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, operation, inotropic treatment, and mechanical ventilation, length of intensive care unit (ICU), and hospital stay were significantly higher in the AKI group than those without AKI group (p<.05). The mortality rate in the groups with AKI was found to be significantly higher (p<.05) than in the groups without AKI. In Kappa analysis, when two classifications were compared according to AKI stages, a significant agreement was found between nKDIGO and nRIFLE classifications (p<.05) (Kappa: 0.299). Conclusion AKI and mortality rates were similar between groups according to the nKDIGO and nRIFLE criteria. For early prediction of AKI and adverse outcomes, diagnostic reference intervals might be specified in more detail in neonates undergoing cardiac surgery for CHD.
