    The Incidence and Risk Factors of Acute Kidney Injury After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
    (2023) Atar, Funda; Sahinturk, Helin; Zeyneloglu, Pinar; Ozdemirkan, Aycan; 0000-0003-0159-4771; AAJ-1419-2021
    Objective: Left ventricular assist device surgery (LVAD) associated acute kidney injury (AKI) is a severe complication of cardiac surgery with 15-45% incidence. The study evaluated AKI in the early postoperative period after LVAD surgery using the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria and compare patients with and without AKI to determine the incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, the medical records of all patients aged between 18 and 75 years who underwent LVAD implantation from January 2011 to December 2016 were reviewed. Patients were divided into two groups based on the development of AKI to analyze demographic features and perioperative variables. AKI was defined according to the KDIGO criteria. Results: Out of 57 patients, 10 (18%) were female, and the cohort's mean age was 44.6 +/- 16.1 years. Thirty-six patients (63%) developed AKI following LVAD implantation. Logistic regression analysis revealed the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), mean arterial pressure, and cumulative fluid balance on the first postoperative day as independent risk factors for AKI [odds ratio (OR): 1.013, confidence interval (CI) 95% 1.000-1.025, p=0.05; OR: 0.929, CI 95% 0.873-0.989, p=0.02; OR: 1.001, CI 95% 1.000-1.001, p=0.04 respectively]. Hospital mortality (58% vs. 24%, p=0.01) and 30-day mortality (39% vs. 5%, p=0.01) were significantly higher in patients who had AKI. Conclusion: Risk factors for the occurrence of AKI include a longer duration of CPB, lower mean arterial pressures, and higher cumulative fluid balance on the first postoperative day. Therefore, AKI is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality after LVAD.

    Effect of acute kidney injury on long-term mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention in a high-volume tertiary center
    (2020) Hayiroglu, Mert Ilker; Bozbeyoglu, Emrah; Yildirimturk, Ozlem; Tekkesin, Ahmet Ilker; Pehlivanoglu, Seckin; 31974325
    Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a reflection of both renal and cardiac reserve in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), but there is a lack of evidence related to the effect of AKI on long-term mortality in patients with STEMI. This study was an investigation of the prognostic value of AKI for long-term mortality in patients with STEMI complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Methods: This retrospective analysis evaluated the long-term prognostic impact of AKI on 492 patients with STEMI complicated by CS who were treated with PPCI. AKI was defined as >= 0.3mg/dL increase in serum creatinine within 48 hours or a >= 50% increase in serum creatinine in 7 days, or a reduction in urine output (documented oliguria of less than 0.5mL/kg per hour >6 hours. Patients were grouped according to the incidence of AKI and long-term mortality was compared. Cox regression analysis was used to determine independent prognostic factors of long-term mortality. Results: In Cox regression analysis, the age- and sex- adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were higher for all-cause mortality in patients with AKI. [HR: 4.556; 95% confidence interval: (CI) 2.370-8.759]. After adjustment for confounding variables, the relative risk was greater for patients with AKI in comparison with patients without AKI (HR: 2.207; 95% CI: 1.150-4.739). Age (HR: 1.060, 95% CI: 1.027-1.094; p<0.001), left ventricular ejection fraction (HR: 0.952, 95% CI: 0.916-0.989; p=0.012), blood urea nitrogen level (HR: 1.019, 95% CI: 1.005-1.034; p=0.010), and AKI (HR: 2.244, 95% CI: 1.077-4.676; p=0.031) were found to be independent factors to determine long-term mortality. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated that AKI was an independent prognostic factor for long-term mortality among patients with STEMI complicated by CS and treated with PPCI.

    Urinay neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as a biomarker in different renal problem
    (2020) Turgut, Didem; Piskinpasa, Serhan Vahit; Yenigun, Ezgi Coskun; Aydemir, Nihal; Dede, Fatih; 0000-0001-7474-5927; 32927927; AAI-9418-2021
    Background/aim: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is used previously to estimate the etiology, severity, and clinical outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the role of urinary NGAL (uNGAL) in the postrenal setting is not clear. In our study, we aimed to discover the cut-off value of uNGAL that can be used in the differential diagnosis of underlying AKI etiologies. Materials and methods: In this prospective cross-sectional study, we examined 82 subjects in four groups: patients that had (1) postrenal AKI; (2) AKI other than postrenal etiologies; (3) stable chronic kidney disease; and (4) healthy subjects. A renal function assessment was carried out by measuring serum creatininc (sCr) and uNGAL at the time of diagnosis [0th min (T0)]. We followed the study group for three months. Results: At the time of diagnosis, sCr (T0) was highest in the postrenal AKI and AKI groups in contrast to stable chronic kidney disease patients and healthy subjects (P < 0.001), as expected. T0 median uNGAL was highest in the postrenal group (P < 0.001). Area under curve (AUC) of uNGAL to estimate postrenal AKI presence was 0.957 (95% CI, 0.897-1.000; P < 0.001). The cut-off point of uNGAL was 42.625 ng/mL for this estimation. Conclusion: Patients with AKI must be classified according to the underlying etiologies as soon as possible. uNGAL may be useful to estimate the etiologies, and whether the problem is acute or chronic in the course. In postrenal kidney problems, to plan the urgency of the urologic procedures, it is crucial.

    Iloprost as an acute kidney injury-triggering agent in severely atherosclerotic patients
    (2016) Uyar, Mehtap Erkmen; Yucel, Piril; Ilin, Sena; Bal, Zeynep; Yildirim, Saliha; Uyar, Ahmet Senol; Akay, Tankut; Tutal, Emre; Sezer, Siren; 27841898; AAZ-5795-2021
    Background: Iloprost, a stable prostacyclin analog, is used as a rescue therapy for severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD). It has systemic vasodilatory and anti-aggregant effects, with severe vasodilatation potentially causing organ ischaemia when severe atherosclerosis is the underlying cause. In this study, we retrospectively analysed renal outcomes after iloprost infusion therapy in 86 patients. Methods: Eighty-six patients with PAD who received iloprost infusion therapy were retrospectively analysed. Clinical and biochemical parameters were recorded before (initial, Cr1), during (third day, Cr2), and after (14th day following the termination of infusion therapy, Cr3) treatment. Acute kidney injury (AKI) was defined according to KDIGO guidelines as a >= 0.3 mg/dl (26.52 mu mol/l) increase in creatinine levels from baseline within 48 hours. Results: Cr2 (1.46 +/- 0.1 mg/dl) (129.06 +/- 8.84 mu mol/l) and Cr3 (1.53 +/- 0.12 mg/dl) (135.25 +/- 10.61 mu mol/l) creatinine levels were significantly higher compared to the initial value (1.15 +/- 0.6 mg/dl) (101.66 +/- 53.04 mu mol/l). AKI was observed in 36 patients (41.86%) on the third day of iloprost infusion. Logistic regression analysis revealed smoking and not using acetylsalicylic acid as primary predictors (p = 0.02 and p = 0.008, respectively) of AKI during iloprost treatment. On the third infusion day, patients' urinary output significantly increased (1813.30 +/- 1123.46 vs 1545.17 +/- 873.00 cm(3)) and diastolic blood pressure significantly decreased (70.07 +/- 15.50 vs 74.14 +/- 9.42 mmHg) from their initial values. Conclusion: While iloprost treatment is effective in patients with PAD who are not suitable for surgery, severe systemic vasodilatation can cause renal ischaemia, resulting in non-oliguric AKI. Smoking, no acetylsalicylic acid use, and lower diastolic blood pressure are the clinical risk factors for AKI during iloprost treatment.
