Impact of coronary-subclavian steal after surgical myocardial revascularization with internal thoracic artery in chronic hemodialysis patients: A meta-analysis. Trends Cardiovasc Med 2024; 34:183-190. [PMID: 36632858 DOI: 10.1016/j.tcm.2022.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2022] [Revised: 11/30/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Patients in hemodialysis with an arm arteriovenous fistula undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with an internal thoracic artery have been reported to suffer from coronary-subclavian steal (CSS) during dialysis session. However, its occurrence is still debated. A systematic literature review was performed to identify all studies investigating the occurrence of a CSS event in this subset of patients. The primary endpoint was the analysis of CSS and the following early and late survival outcomes. Independent determinants of CSS and the impact of the distance between the arteriovenous fistula (upper arm vs forearm) and the ipsilateral internal thoracic artery graft on CSS events and mortality were studied. Early and late survival outcomes were analyzed by comparing ipsilateral versus contralateral arteriovenous fistula. Of the 1,383 retrieved articles, 10 were included (n = 643 patients). The pooled event rate of CSS was 6.46% [95%CI=2.10-18.15], while of symptomatic CSS incidence was 3.99% [95%CI=0.95-15.25]. No survival differences were noted when comparing ipsilateral to contralateral arteriovenous fistula-internal thoracic artery combinations. On meta-regression, the upper arm was associated with more CSS events, while the forearm to lower late mortality rates. Independently from arteriovenous fistula-internal thoracic artery combination, CSS was not associated to higher mortality rates. Particular attention is warranted when selecting the type of conduits for CABG in patients with an arteriovenous fistula or if highly expected to need one in the near future after surgery. A contralateral arteriovenous fistula-internal thoracic artery combination is preferable. If this is not possible, a forearm arteriovenous fistula position should be preferred.

Percutaneous coronary intervention versus coronary artery bypass graft surgery in dialysis-dependent patients: A pooled meta-analysis of reconstructed time-to-event data. J Card Surg 2022; 37:3365-3373. [PMID: 35900307 DOI: 10.1111/jocs.16805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Το perform a systematic review with meta-analysis of published data comparing outcomes between a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in dialysis-dependent patients. METHODS We searched PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases for studies including dialysis-dependent patients who underwent either CABG or PCI. This meta-analysis follows the recommendations of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. We conducted one-stage and two-stage meta-analysis with Kaplan-Meier-derived individual patient data for overall survival and meta-analysis with the random-effects model for the in-hospital mortality and repeat revascularization. RESULTS Twelve studies met our eligibility criteria, including 13,651 and 28,493 patients were identified in the CABG and PCI arms, respectively. Patients who underwent CABG had overall improved survival compared with those who underwent PCI at the one-stage meta-analysis (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.12, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-1.16, p < .0001) and the two-stage meta-analysis (HR: 1.15, 95% CI: 1.08-1.23, p < .001, I2 = 30.0%). Landmark analysis suggested that PCI offers better survival before the 8.5 months of follow-up (HR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.92-0.99, p = .043), while CABG offers an advantage after this timepoint (HR: 1.3, 95% CI: 1.22-1.32, p < .001). CABG was associated with increased odds for in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 1.70, 95% CI: 1.50-1.92, p < .001, I2 = 0.0%) and decreased odds for repeat revascularization (OR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.14-0.34, p < .001, I2 = 58.08%). CONCLUSIONS In dialysis-dependent patients, CABG was associated with long-term survival but a higher risk for early mortality. The risk for repeat revascularization was higher with PCI.

Heart Lung Circ 2022; 31:1399-1407. [PMID: 35840512 DOI: 10.1016/j.hlc.2022.06.662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Revised: 05/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for haemodialysis patients, arteriovenous fistula can reduce blood flow from the internal mammary artery (IMA) graft. The purpose of this study was to delineate the rationale of ipsilateral IMA grafting to the arteriovenous fistula by assessing graft flow and patency. METHOD The clinical records of 139 haemodialysis patients who underwent off-pump CABG, including IMA grafting to the left anterior descending artery (LAD) between April 2007 and December 2018, were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical outcomes and transit-time flowmetry results of IMA to LAD bypass grafts during off-pump CABG and postoperative angiography were examined. RESULTS An ipsilateral IMA to the arteriovenous fistula (Ipsi-IMA) was used in 89 patients, and a contralateral IMA to the arteriovenous fistula (Contra-IMA) was used in 50 patients and no hospital deaths occurred. The mean graft flow and angiographic patency rate did not differ between the Ipsi-IMA and Contra-IMA groups. In patients with 51 to 90% stenosis of LAD, there was no significant difference in the mean graft flow. In comparison, in the patients with 91 to 100% stenosis of LAD, the mean graft flow in the Ipsi-IMA group was significantly lower than that in the Contra-IMA group (p=0.03). Kaplan-Meier analyses showed a 5-year survival rate of 57.6% for Ipsi-IMA and 64.8% for Contra-IMA (p=0.47). CONCLUSIONS In the revascularisation of the LAD, the graft patency rate of the Ipsi-IMA was not inferior to that of the Contra-IMA. However, when the LAD has 91 to 100% stenosis, a Contra-IMA to arteriovenous fistula may be beneficial in terms of sufficient flow capacity.

Influence of Ipsilateral Graft Inflow to Arteriovenous Fistula for Hemodialysis in Coronary Bypass Surgery. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11041053.

Abstract
In coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients on hemodialysis, there has been concern about “coronary steal”. This study aims to evaluate the influence of using an in situ internal thoracic artery (ITA) ipsilateral to a preexisting arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in dialysis-dependent patients undergoing CABG. Between 2004 and 2018, dialysis-dependent patients with AVFs who underwent CABG were enrolled. According to the locational relationship of AVFs and in situ ITA grafts, the patients were divided into the ipsilateral group (n = 22) and the contralateral group (n = 21). Inverse probability weighting analysis was used to estimate and compare the late clinical outcomes. The late cardiac-related adverse events were not significantly different between the two groups: “major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE)” (p = 0.090), “composite outcome of recurrent angina and coronary re-intervention” (p = 0.600). The in situ ITA graft of CABG on the ipsilateral side to AVF was not a significant risk factor for MACCE or the composite outcome of recurrent angina and coronary re-intervention. There was no statistically significant difference in the graft patency between the groups. Therefore, it might not be necessary to avoid using an in situ ITA on the ipsilateral side of an upper-arm AVF for optimal coronary artery bypass grafting in dialysis-dependent patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for revascularising coronary arteries in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). CKD is described as a continuous decrease in the glomerular filtration rate or abnormalities in kidney structure or function. METHODS PubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase databases were searched for studies on the revascularisation of coronary arteries in patients with CKD and ESRD. RESULTS Since no randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have addressed this issue so far, 31 observational studies involving 74 805 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with PCI, patients undergoing CABG have significantly higher early mortality (CKD: RR = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.17-2.25, pheterogeneity = 0.476, I2 = 0; ESRD: RR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.46-2.71, pheterogeneity = 0.001, I2 = 66.9%). Patients with ESRD undergoing CABG have significantly lower all-cause mortality (RR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.93-0.96, pheterogeneity < 0.001, I2 = 82.9%) and cardiac mortality (RR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.58-0.92, pheterogeneity = 0.908, I2 = 0). The long-term risk of repeat revascularisation (CKD: RR = 0.24, 95% CI: 0.19-0.30, pheterogeneity = 0.489, I2 = 0; ESRD: RR = 0.23, 95% CI: 0.15-0.34, pheterogeneity = 0.012, I2 = 54.4%) and myocardial infarction (CKD: RR = .57, 95% CI: 0.38-0.85, pheterogeneity = 0.025, I2 = 49.9%; ESRD: RR = 0.42, 95% CI: 0.40-0.44, pheterogeneity = 0.49, I2 = 0) remained significantly higher in the PCI group. CONCLUSIONS Patients with ESRD, but not CKD, who underwent CABG had significantly lower all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality. However, CABG was associated with an increased risk of early mortality in patients with CKD or ESRD. Adequately powered, contemporary, prospective RCTs are needed to define the optimal revascularisation strategy for patients with CKD and ESRD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and concomitant end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains unknown. RESEARCH DESIGN & METHODS The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) (2002-2017) was queried to identify all cases of CAD and ESRD. The relative merits of PCI vs CABG were determined using a propensity-matched multivariate logistic regression model. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) for mortality and other in-hospital complications were calculated. RESULTS A total of 350,623 [CABG = 112,099 (32%) and PCI = 238,524 (68%)] hospitalizations were included in the analysis. The overall adjusted odds for major bleeding (aOR 1.28, 95% CI 1.25-1.31, P < 0.0001), post-procedure bleeding (aOR 5.19, 95% CI 4.93-5.47, P < 0.0001), sepsis (aOR 1.29, 95% CI 1.26-1.33, P < 0.0001), cardiogenic shock (aOR 1.23, 95% CI 1.20-1.26, P < 0.0001), and in-hospital mortality (aOR 1.65, 95% CI 1.61-1.69, P < 0.0001) were significantly higher for patients undergoing CABG compared with PCI. The need for intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) placement (aOR 2.52, 95% CI 2.45-2.59, P < 0.001) was higher in the CABG group, while the adjusted odds of vascular complications were similar between the two groups (aOR 0.99, 95% CI 0.94-1.06, P = 0.82). As expected, patients undergoing CABG had a higher mean length of stay and mean cost of hospitalization. CONCLUSION CABG in ESRD may be associated with higher in-hospital complications, increased length of stay, and higher resource utilization.

Abstract
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in advanced kidney disease. However, its best treatment has not been determined. Methods: We searched PubMed and Cochrane databases and scanned references to related articles. Studies comparing the different treatments for patients with CAD and advanced CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 ml/min/1.73 m2 or dialysis) were selected. The primary result was all-cause death, classified according to the follow-up time: short-term (<1 month), medium-term (1 month-1 year), and long-term (>1 year). Results: A total of 32 studies were selected to enroll 84,498 patients with advanced kidney disease. Compared with medical therapy (MT) alone, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was associated with low risk of short-, medium-term and long-term all-cause death (more than 3 years). For AMI patients, compared with MT, PCI was not associated with low risk of short- and medium-term all-cause death. For non-AMI patients, compared with MT, PCI was associated with low risk of long-term mortality (more than 3 years). Compared with MT, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) had no significant advantages in each follow-up period of all-cause death. Compared with PCI, CABG was associated with a high risk of short-term death, but low risk of long-term death: 1–3 years; more than 3 years. CABG could also reduce the risk of long-term risk of cardiac death, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), myocardial infarction (MI), and repeat revascularization. Conclusions: In patients with advanced kidney disease and CAD, PCI reduced the risk of short-, medium- and long- term (more than 3 years) all-cause death compared with MT. Compared with PCI, CABG was associated with a high risk of short-term death and a low risk of long-term death and adverse events.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. A well-functioning vascular access is associated with improved survival and among the available types of vascular access the arterio-venous (AV) fistula is the one associated with the best outcomes. However, AV access may affect heart function and, in some patients, could worsen the clinical status. This review article focuses on the specific cardiovascular hemodynamics of dialysis patients and how it is affected by the AV access; the effects of an excessive increase in AV access flow, leading to high-output heart failure; congestive heart failure in CKD patients and the contraindications to AV access; pulmonary hypertension. In severe heart failure, peritoneal dialysis (PD) might be the better choice for cardiac health, but if contraindicated suggestions for vascular access selection are provided based on the individual clinical presentation. Management of the AV access after kidney transplantation is also addressed, considering the cardiovascular benefit of AV access ligation compared to the advantage of having a functioning AVF as backup in case of allograft failure. In PD patients, who need to switch to hemodialysis, vascular access should be created timely. The influence of AV access in patients undergoing cardiac surgery for valvular or ischemic heart disease is also addressed. Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices are increasingly implanted in dialysis patients, but when doing so, the type and location of vascular access should be considered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is limited literature on clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Asian dialysis patients. We evaluated the angiographic characteristics and clinical outcomes of dialysis patients treated with PCI in an Asian society. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of 274 dialysis patients who underwent PCI in a tertiary care institution from January 2007 to December 2012. Data on clinical and angiographic characteristics was collected. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiac death, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke at two years. RESULTS 274 patients (65.0% male, median age 62.0 years) with 336 lesions (81.8% Type B2) were treated. 431 stents (35.0% drug-eluting stents) with a mean diameter of 2.96 mm and mean length of 21.30 mm were implanted. The MACE rate was 55.8% (n = 153) at two years, from death (36.5%) and AMI (35.0%). In multivariable analysis, age and diabetes mellitus were significant predictors of both mortality (odds ratio [OR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05-1.12, p < 0.001; OR 2.65, 95% CI 1.46-4.82, p = 0.001, respectively) and MACE (OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.03-1.08, p < 0.001; OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.07-3.15, p = 0.027, respectively). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.95-0.99, p = 0.006) was a significant predictor of mortality but not MACE. CONCLUSION Asian dialysis patients who underwent PCI had a two-year MACE rate of 55.8% due to death and AMI. Age, LVEF and diabetes mellitus were significant predictors of mortality at two years.

Abstract
ACS patients with renal dysfunction tend to have a poorer prognosis than those with normal renal function. This retrospective cohort study was performed using The Second Drug-Eluting Stent Impact on Revascularization Registry, a retrospective registry, to evaluate the time-dependent relative risk of revascularization strategies in ACS patients with renal dysfunction. The study demonstrated that the short-term MACCE rate was lower after PCI than CABG. However, there was no significant difference in long-term MACCE rate. Subgroup analyses based on the degree of renal dysfunction resulted in similar findings. The revascularization strategy was identified as a time-dependent covariate by the time-dependent Cox model, and the regression coefficient was ‘−1.124 + 0.344 × ln (time + 1)’. For the entire object group and the separate subgroups, PCI was initially associated with a lower hazard for MACCE than CABG after revascularization, then the hazard ratio increases with time. In conclusion, the hazard ratio for MACCE in PCI relative to CABG is time-dependent. PCI tends to have a lower risk for MACCE than CABG in the short-term, then the hazard ratio increases with time.

Eur J Intern Med 2017; 43:28-35. [PMID: 28400078 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejim.2017.04.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2016] [Revised: 03/30/2017] [Accepted: 04/05/2017] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal revascularization strategy of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) versus percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stent (PCI-DES) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and multivessel disease (MVD) remains unclear. METHODS Pubmed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library electronic databases were searched from inception until June 2016. Studies that evaluate the comparative benefits of DES versus CABG in CKD patients with multi-vessel disease were considered for inclusion. We pooled the odds ratios from individual studies and conducted heterogeneity, quality assessment and publication bias analyses. RESULTS A total of 11 studies with 29,246 patients were included (17,928 DES patients; 11,318 CABG). Compared with CABG, pooled analysis of studies showed DES had higher long-term all-cause mortality (OR, 1.22; p<0.00001), cardiac mortality (OR, 1.29; p<0.00001), myocardial infarction (OR, 1.89; p=0.02), repeat revascularization (OR, 3.47; p<0.00001) and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (OR, 2.00; p=0.002), but lower short-term all-cause mortality (OR, 0.33; p<0.00001) and cerebrovascular accident (OR, 0.64; p=0.0001). Subgroup analysis restricted to patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) yielded similar results, but no significant differences were found regarding CVA and MACCE. CONCLUSIONS CABG for patients with CKD and MVD had advantages over PCI-DES in long-term all-cause mortality, MI, repeat revascularization and MACCE, but the substantial disadvantage in short-term mortality and CVA. Future large randomized controlled trials are certainly needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease is an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease and is associated with an increase in adverse outcomes. However, the optimal treatment strategies for patients with chronic kidney disease and coronary artery disease are yet to be defined. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched for studies including at least 100 patients with chronic kidney disease (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or on dialysis) and coronary artery disease treated with medical therapy, percutaneous coronary intervention, or coronary artery bypass surgery and followed for at least 1 month and reporting outcomes. The outcome evaluated was all-cause mortality. Meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the outcomes with revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery) when compared with medical therapy alone. In addition, outcomes with percutaneous coronary intervention vs coronary artery bypass surgery were evaluated. RESULTS The search yielded 38 nonrandomized studies that enrolled 85,731 patients. Revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery) was associated with lower long-term mortality (mean 4.0 years) when compared with medical therapy alone (relative risk [RR] 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.62-0.87), driven by lower mortality with percutaneous coronary intervention vs medical therapy and coronary artery bypass surgery vs medical therapy. Coronary artery bypass surgery was associated with a higher upfront risk of death (RR 1.81; 95% CI, 1.47-2.24) but a lower long-term risk of death (RR 0.94; 95% CI, 0.89-0.98) when compared with percutaneous coronary intervention. CONCLUSIONS In chronic kidney disease patients with coronary artery disease, the current data from nonrandomized studies indicate lower mortality with revascularization, via either coronary artery bypass surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention, when compared with medical therapy. These associations should be tested in future randomized trials.

Abstract
The optimal coronary revascularization strategy (coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG] or percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains uncertain. We performed an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies comparing CABG and PCI in patients with ESRD using a random-effects model for the primary outcome of long-term all-cause mortality. Our review registered through PROSPERO included observational studies published after 2011 to ensure overlap with previous studies and identified 7 new studies for a total of 23. We found that the median sample size in the selected studies was 125 patients (25 to 15,784) with a large variation in the covariate risk adjustment and only 3 studies reporting the indications for the revascularization strategy. CABG was associated with a small reduction in mortality (relative risk 0.92, 95% CI 0.89 to 0.96) with significant heterogeneity demonstrated (p = 0.005, I(2) = 48.6%). Subgroup analysis by categorized "year of study initiation" (<1990, 1991 to 2003, >2004) further confirmed the summary estimate trending toward survival benefit of CABG along with a substantial decrease in heterogeneity after 2004 (p = 0.64, I(2) = 0%). In conclusion, our updated systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that in patients with ESRD referred for coronary revascularization, CABG was associated with a small decrease in the relative risk of long-term mortality compared with PCI. The generalizability of the finding to all patients with ESRD referred for coronary revascularization is limited because of a lack of known indications for coronary revascularization, substantial variation in covariate risk adjustment, and lack of randomized clinical trial data.

Abstract
Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those treated with dialysis, are at high risk for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD accounts for 45-50% of deaths among dialysis patients. Therapy of acute and chronic coronary heart disease (CHD) that is effective in the general population is frequently less effective in patients with advanced CKD. Drug therapy in such patients may require dose modification in some cases. Oral anti-platelet drugs are less effective in those with advanced CKD than in persons with normal or near normal renal function. The intravenous antiplatelet drugs eptifibatide and tirofiban both require dose reductions in patients with advanced CKD. Enoxaparin requires dose reduction in early stage CKD and is contraindicated in hemodialysis patients. Unfractionated heparin and warfarin maybe used without dose adjustment in CKD patients. Atenolol, acetbutolol and nadolol may require dose adjustments in CKD. Metoprolol and carvedilol do not. Calcium channel blockers and nitrates do not require dose adjustment, whereas ranolazine does. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers may safely be used in CKD patients with close observation for hyperkalemia. The safety of spironolactone in such patients is questionable. Statins are less effective in reducing cardiovascular complication in CKD patients and their initiation is not recommended in dialysis patients. Coronary artery bypass grafting is associated with higher short-term mortality, but better long-term morbidity and mortality than percutaneous coronary interventions in patients with advanced CKD with non-ST segment ACS and chronic CHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have high risks of coronary artery disease (CAD). Coronary revascularization is beneficial for long-term survival, but the optimal strategy remains still controversial. METHODS We searched studies that have compared percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) for revascularization of the coronary arteries in CKD patients. Short-term (30 days or in-hospital) mortality, long-term (at least 12 months) all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality and the incidence of late myocardial infarction and recurrence of revascularization were estimated. RESULTS 28 studies with 38,740 patients were included. All were retrospective studies from 1977 to 2012. Meta-analysis showed that PCI group had lower short-term mortality (OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.41 to 0.73, P<0.01), but had higher long-term all-cause mortality (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.23 to 1.35, P<0.01). Higher cardiac mortality (OR 1.08, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.15, P<0.05), higher incidence of late myocardial infarction (OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.65 to 1.91, P<0.01) and recurring revascularization rate (OR 2.94, 95%CI 2.15 to 4.01, P<0.01) is found amongst PCI treated patients compared to CABG group. CONCLUSIONS CKD patients with CAD received CABG had higher risk of short-term mortality but lower risks of long-term all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality and late myocardial infarction compared to PCI. This could be due to less probable repeated revascularization.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death. We evaluated the association between CKD and severity of coronary artery stenosis by calculating SYNTAX Score in patients with left main coronary artery and/or 3-vessel coronary artery disease. Coronary angiograms of 217 patients were assessed. Chronic kidney disease was staged using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, mL/min per 1.73 m(2)) prior to coronary angiography. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative (NKF KDOQI) Clinical Practice Guidelines (14). Patients with eGFR >90 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) (group 1), patients with eGFR 60 to 89 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) (group 2), patients with eGFR 30 to 59 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) (group 3), patients with eGFR >15 to < 30 per 1.73 m(2) and dialysis patients with eGFR < 15 per 1.73 m(2) were combined as group 4. The risk of significant lesion complexity increased progressively with decreasing kidney function (P = .001). Estimated glomerular filtration rate was a strong predictor of higher SYNTAX Score.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring chronic haemodialysis who undergo coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) are at significant risk for perioperative mortality. However, the impact of changes in ESRD patient volume and characteristics over time on operative outcomes is unclear. METHODS Using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample database (1988-03), we evaluated rates of CABG surgery with and without concurrent valve surgery among ESRD patients and outcomes including in-hospital mortality, and length of hospital stay. Multivariate regression models were used to account for patient characteristics and potential cofounders. RESULTS From 1988 to 2003, annual rates of CABG among ESRD patients doubled from 2.5 to 5 per 1000 patient-years. Concomitantly, patient case-mix changed to include patients with greater co-morbidities such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity (all P < 0.001). Nonetheless, among ESRD patients, in-hospital mortality rates declined nearly 6-fold from over 31% to 5.4% (versus 4.7% to 1.8% among non-ESRD), and the median length of in-hospital stay dropped in half from 25 to 13 days (versus 14 to 10 days among non-ESRD). CONCLUSIONS Since 1988, an increasing number of patients with ESRD have been receiving CABG in the USA. Despite increasing co-morbidities, operative mortality rates and length of in-hospital stay have declined substantially. Nonetheless, mortality rates remain almost 3-fold higher compared to non-ESRD patients indicating a need for ongoing improvement.

Abstract
Cardiovascular events are markedly elevated in those with all degrees of renal impairment compared to the general population. There are well established guidelines in the general population for the management of coronary artery disease, however, similar guidelines have not been established in the renal population. This review examines the current published work on the detection of coronary artery stenoses in addition to summarizing the outcomes of revascularization in patients with kidney disease. Testing for coronary artery disease in the renal population most commonly occurs in dialysis patients as part of their assessment for renal transplantation. While a positive myocardial stress test for the detection of significant coronary artery stenoses is associated with an increased risk of cardiac events, there is no clear information currently showing that cardiovascular testing itself reduces the rate of adverse cardiac events after transplantation. Revascularization of coronary artery stenoses is associated with higher morbidity and mortality in all groups with kidney disease than in the general population, with the exception of renal transplant recipients where the mortality is likely to be similar to that of the general population. There appears to be a benefit in coronary artery bypass surgery compared to percutaneous intervention in those on dialysis and after renal transplant. Currently, there is little data to support coronary artery intervention prior to transplantation in those with asymptomatic coronary artery disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Patients receiving dialysis have a high burden of cardiovascular disease. Some receive coronary artery revascularization but the optimal method is controversial. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The authors reviewed any randomized controlled trial or cohort study of 10 or more patients receiving maintenance dialysis which compared coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) to percutaneous intervention (PCI) for revascularization of the coronary arteries. The primary outcomes were short-term (30 d or in-hospital) and long-term (at least 1 year) mortality. RESULTS Seventeen studies were found. There were no randomized trials: all were retrospective cohort studies from years 1977 to 2002. There were some baseline differences between the groups receiving CABG compared with those receiving PCI, and most studies did not consider results adjusted for such characteristics. Given the variability among studies and their methodological limitations, few definitive conclusions about the optimal method of revascularization could be drawn. In an exploratory meta-analysis, short-term mortality was higher after CABG compared to PCI. A substantial number of patients died over a subsequent 1 to 5 yr, with no difference in mortality after CABG compared to PCI. CONCLUSIONS Although decisions about the optimal method of coronary artery revascularization in dialysis patients are undertaken routinely, it was surprising to see how few data has been published in this regard. Additional research will help inform physician and patient decisions about coronary artery revascularization.

Abstract
End-stage renal failure requiring maintenance haemodialysis is known to be a strong independent predictor of mortality and complications after coronary interventions. In contrast, data about the outcome of patients with moderate chronic renal failure is very limited and was therefore evaluated in this study in patients with coronary angioplasty (PTCA). This was a retrospective case-control study of 66 patients with moderate chronic renal failure who underwent PTCA, and who were matched to 66 PTCA patients with normal renal function and followed up by telephone interviews. In hospital, patients with renal failure suffered significantly more often from local complications (12.1 vs 0%, P = 0.004) and acute deterioration of renal function after PTCA (7.6 vs 0%, P = 0.023) than their matched controls. Angiographic success after PTCA was not significantly different (85 vs 83%, n.s.) as was the case with in-hospital mortality (6.1 vs 3.0%, n.s.). During follow up (100% complete), 18 patients (27.3%) with renal failure had died compared with seven controls (10.6%; OR 3.2, P = 0.015). Even if deaths from non-cardiac causes in three patients with renal failure were excluded, death after PTCA occurred significantly more often in the renal failure group (P = 0.015, log rang test). Multivariate analyses with stepwise logistic regression identified impaired left ventricular function (OR 2.24, 95%CI 1.33-3.77), elevated serum creatinine (OR 2.02, 95%CI 1.24-3.31) and smaller height (OR 0.91, 95%CI 0.86-0.98) to be independently associated with death. In conclusion, in this matched-pair study, patients with chronic renal failure suffered from more in-hospital complications and from markedly increased long-term mortality after PTCA.

Abstract
Recent publications regarding perioperative renal dysfunction provide a 'potpourri' of topics worthy of discussion. The risk of perioperative renal dysfunction is higher in patients with heart failure, but other pre-existing conditions, such as genetic polymorphism, may have prognostic implications. Evaluation of renal risk and protective interventions are discussed for a number of specific operative entities, including cardiac surgery (with or without cardiopulmonary bypass), aortic surgery and renal revascularization. New publications on a wide variety of nephrotoxic insults are presented, including antifibrinolytic agents, obstructive jaundice, prostaglandin inhibitors, cyclosporine A, radiocontrast dyes and volatile anesthetic agents. Renal transplantation is discussed as a specific entity. Finally, we discuss recent papers describing outcome in patients in chronic renal failure undergoing cardiac surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long-term hemodialysis remains a major risk factor for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Off-pump CABG (OPCAB) is expected to offer benefits for these high risk patients; however, this issue has not been clarified. To elucidate the issue, we conducted a multicenter retrospective review of long-term hemodialysis patients who underwent on- or off-pump CABG. PATIENTS Between January 1998 and December 2002, 53 hemodialysis patients underwent elective CABG at 14 centers. Nineteen patients underwent OPCAB, and 34 patients underwent conventional CABG (CCAB). Preoperative and perioperative variables, morbidity, and mortality were compared in the 2 groups. There were no significant differences in preoperative variables between the 2 groups. RESULTS The length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (3.7 versus 5.9 days), the amount of blood loss (668 versus 1100 mL), and the amount of red cell transfusion (4.7 versus 12.2 units) were less in the OPCAB group. The perioperative morbidity was significantly lower in the OPCAB group (0.0% versus 26.5%). The hospital mortality was not significant but was low in the OPCAB group (0% versus 14.7%, P = .079). CONCLUSION OPCAB significantly decreased blood loss, blood transfusion, ICU stay, and major perioperative morbidity compared with the values for CCAB. OPCAB may have advantages over CCAB in long-term hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although patients with end-stage renal disease are known to be at high risk for mortality after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, the impact of lesser degrees of renal impairment has not been well studied. The purpose of this study was to compare outcomes in patients undergoing CABG with a range from normal renal function to dependence on dialysis. METHODS AND RESULTS We reviewed 483,914 patients receiving isolated CABG from July 2000 to December 2003, using the Society of Thoracic Surgeons National Adult Cardiac Database. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated for patients with the use of the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study formula. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine the association of GFR with operative mortality and morbidities (stroke, reoperation, deep sternal infection, ventilation >48 hours, postoperative stay >2 weeks) after adjustment for 27 other known clinical risk factors. Preoperative renal dysfunction (RD) was common among CABG patients, with 51% having mild RD (GFR 60 to 90 mL/min per 1.73 m2, excludes dialysis), 24% moderate RD (GFR 30 to 59 mL/min per 1.73 m2, excludes dialysis), 2% severe RD (GFR <30 mL/min per 1.73 m2, excludes dialysis), and 1.5% requiring dialysis. Operative mortality rose inversely with declining renal function, from 1.3% for those with normal renal function to 9.3% for patients with severe RD not on dialysis and 9.0% for those who were dialysis dependent. After adjustment for other covariates, preoperative GFR was one of the most powerful predictors of operative mortality and morbidities. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative RD is common in the CABG population and carries important prognostic importance. Assessment of preoperative renal function should be incorporated into clinical risk assessment and prediction models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease remains the most frequent cause of death for patients with end-stage renal disease. To determine the long-term benefit of surgical revascularization in this high-risk population, we studied our patients with ESRD having coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), comparing the results of off-pump to on-pump revascularization. As a baseline reference group, we used dialysis patients with a diagnosis of coronary artery disease who did not have surgical revascularization or percutaneous coronary interventions. The control group data set was obtained from the United States Renal Data System. METHODS From January 1995 through July 2003, 158 patients with end-stage renal disease who were on hemodialysis (excluding those in cardiogenic shock, needing resuscitation, and with emergent or salvage status) underwent CABG. Fifty-nine patients (37.3%) had off-pump revascularization, and 99 patients (62.7%) had bypass grafting utilizing extracorporeal circulation. Preoperative risk factors and operative results were analyzed, and longitudinal survival data obtained. RESULTS The mean follow-up time was 39.1 months (median, 33.1) for the on-pump patients and 18.3 months (median, 14.7) for off-pump. The total number of anastomoses per off-pump patient was 2.4 +/- 1.0, and with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), it was 3.3 +/- 0.9 (p < 0.001). Patients revascularized off-pump had an operative mortality rate of 1.7%, whereas patients grafted using CPB had an operative mortality of 17.2% (p = 0.003). The predicted risk of mortality for the off-pump group (9.3% +/- 7.4%) was not statistically different from the on-pump cohort (9.1% +/- 7.7%, p = not significant). Logistic regression analysis indicates that CPB use was an independent risk factor for early death (p = 0.01, odds ratio = 13.6, 95% confidence interval: 1.7 to 110). Long-term follow-up demonstrated that the patients revascularized using CPB had improved survival compared with the off-pump patients and the control population. CONCLUSIONS Off-pump CABG improves early mortality rate when compared with conventional revascularization. Despite a greater operative mortality, however, long-term survival is improved in the patients revascularized with CPB as compared with the off-pump cohort, suggesting possible advantages from a more complete revascularization in this population.

Abstract
The enormous burden of CAD and PVD inpatients who have CKD contributes substantially to increased morbidity and mortality. The increased risk of vascular disease observed in CKD patients is likely to be multifactorial, with contributions from traditional and nontraditional cardiovascular factors. Given the overwhelming evidence on the known benefits of cardioprotective medications, their underuse remains puzzling in a population at enormous risk. During the past 5 years, the research community and national interest groups have made significant progress in organizing a concerted approach to improve the management of patients who have CKD and vascular disease. Much work remains to be done. The development of national guidelines in the management of these patients at high risk for future cardiovascular events will be a welcome step. The evaluation of multitargeted interventions for reduction of cardiovascular risk through randomized clinical trials is desperately needed. Finally, the low use of known cardioprotective strategies in this high-risk group is a serious issue and warrants immediate attention at local and national levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Despite the long-term benefit, the operative results of conventional coronary artery bypass grafting for chronic hemodialysis patients remain unsatisfactory. The efficacy of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for hemodialysis patients is yet to be determined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the postoperative physiology of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for hemodialysis patients. METHODS Twenty-five hemodialysis cases who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting were reviewed. Fifteen of these patients underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (off-group) and 10 underwent on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (on-group). Comparisons were made in cardiac function (cardiac index and stroke volume index), respiratory function (AaDO2), hemodialysis management (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, right atrial pressure, pulmonary wedge pressure), and bleeding tendency (postoperative blood loss and blood transfusion). RESULTS There was no operative mortality, but 3 major postoperative complications occurred (2 sternal wound infections in the off-group and 1 pneumonia in the on-group). There was no difference in cardiac index or stroke volume index. AaDO2 was significantly lower in the off-group. Plasma concentrations of blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were similar between groups. Right atrial pressure was lower and pulmonary wedge pressure tended to be lower in the off-group. Postoperative bleeding and blood transfusion were similar between groups. CONCLUSION Our study confirmed that off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting is feasible for hemodialysis patients. Physiologic data showed that off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting might be effective in preserving postoperative lung oxygenation.

Abstract
The number of patients with dialysis-dependent end stage renal failure (ESRF) and coronary heart disease (CAD) has increased in recent years. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has become the standard treatment for CAD in this patient group, but is still considered as a risk procedure due to increased mortality and morbidity. In a retrospective study we analyzed our clinical results of isolated CABG in 40 dialysis-dependent patients with ESRF (5 female and 35 male, mean age 65+/-8.4 years) and the use of extracorporeal circulation. The perioperative control group comprised 51 patients (10 female and 41 male, mean age 67+/-7.3 years) with normal renal function and isolated CABG. Demographic and preoperative data were comparable in both groups. Hospital mortality was 2.5% in patients with ESRF and 0% in patients with normal renal function. Morbidity was comparable in both groups. The mean number of grafts was 3.1+/-0.9 in the dialysis group and 2.9+/-0.8 in the control group. In the follow-up of the dialysis group (34+/-23 months) 8 patients died. CABG in patients with dialysis-dependent ESRF can be performed with good clinical results and morbidity comparable to patients with normal renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess if coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients with dialysis-dependent end stage renal disease (ESRD) experience greater intraoperative and postoperative morbidity and mortality compared to CABG patients without ESRD. METHODS We conducted a nested case-control study from an 8-year hospitalization cohort in which data were collected prospectively. Inclusion criteria included CABG surgery and age greater than 18 years. Cases were patients with dialysis dependent ESRD (N = 28) and controls were patients without ESRD (N = 84). Cases were matched to controls 1:3 on age, gender, tobacco history, and New York Heart Association Functional Class. The outcomes of interest were mortality, intensive care unit length of stay, total length of hospitalization, time on the ventilator, wound complications, pulmonary complications, neurological complications, gastrointestinal complications, arrhythmia, and intraoperative complications. Using logistic regression we controlled for 13 potential confounding variables. RESULTS There were no significant differences between the groups with the exception of total length of hospitalization. Patients with dialysis-dependent ESRD had a significantly longer total hospitalization stay (21%) than patients without ESRD. There were no significant differences for the remaining nine outcomes of interest, including perioperative morbidity or mortality. CONCLUSION Intraoperative and postoperative morbidity and mortality for CABG were not increased for patients with dialysis-dependent ESRD compared to patients without ESRD. However, patients on dialysis undergoing CABG experienced a greater length of hospitalization than patients undergoing CABG who were not on dialysis.

Abstract
We have experienced a case which developed mesenteric ischemia followed by necrosis of the rectus abdominal muscle after off pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). A 62-year-old man with a history of long-term hemodialysis was diagnosed with left main trunk disease. He underwent triple OPCAB uneventfully. No inotropic agents were needed perioperatively. He underwent normal hemodialysis on the first postoperative day, and then complained of severe abdominal pain with progressive metabolic acidosis. A 170 cm length of the ileocecal segment fell into necrosis and was excised and an ileostomy was constructed in an emergency setting. He developed another abdominal pain 6 days after the second operation. An additional surgery confirmed necrosis of the right rectus abdominal muscle complicated with a significant infection. He developed mediastinitis and died of multi-system organ failure 37 days after OPCAB. The mechanism of this serious complication is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients in chronic hemodialysis via upper extremity arteriovenous fistula in whom ipsilateral internal thoracic artery graft was used for myocardial revascularization, hemodynamic interference between the fistula and the graft during dialysis can be hypothesized. METHODS AND RESULTS In 5 patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis via upper extremity arteriovenous fistula, ipsilateral to an internal thoracic to left anterior descending graft mammary flow was studied by means of transthoracic echo-color Doppler at baseline and during hemodialysis. Flow in the contralateral mammary artery was used as control. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed in concomitance with flow evaluation to assess eventual modifications of left ventricular segmental wall motion. Immediately after hemodialysis pump start there was a marked reduction of peak systolic and end-diastolic velocities and time average mean velocity and flow in the ITA ipsilateral to the fistula, whereas no substantial hemodynamic modification was evident in the contralateral artery. Dialysis-induced reduction of ipsilateral ITA flow was accompanied by evidence of hypokinesia of the anterior left ventricular wall. Three cases also experienced clinical angina. CONCLUSIONS Hemodynamically evident flow steal and consequent myocardial ischemia develop during hemodialysis in patients with upper extremity arteriovenous fistula and ipsilateral internal thoracic artery to coronary graft. These data have major implications for patients' management, both for nephrologists and cardiac surgeons.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major contributor to the mortality and morbidity of patients who suffer from chronic kidney disease (CKD). Heart failure and ischemic heart disease (IHD) are both highly prevalent in this population. The diagnosis of myocardial dysfunction is usually based on echocardiography. As in the general population, systolic dysfunction is treated with a combination of diuretics, renin-angiotensin system blockade, and beta-receptor antagonists. Diastolic dysfunction is best managed by eliminating the cause. Non-invasive tests for coronary artery disease (CAD) may be less reliable in patients with renal disease compared with nonuremic patients. Medical therapy of IHD in this population is generally similar to that for other patient groups, but surgical revascularization appears to carry a higher risk of complications with poorer clinical outcomes. The choice of revascularization procedure (coronary artery bypass grafting versus percutaneous transluminal angioplasty) should be based on the specific coronary anatomy of a given patient as well as a consideration of other comorbid factors.

Abstract
Terminal renal failure is often associated with severe coronary artery disease that should be treated with surgical myocardial revascularization. Since perioperative morbidity and mortality rates in these patients are high, the best way and the time for surgical intervention are still uncertain. We present the patient with end-stage renal disease, on chronic program of hemodialysis, who had underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and high thoracic epidural anaesthesia, followed by early extubation. To our knowledge, off-pump surgical myocardial revascularization in patients on hemodialysis using this anaesthetic technique has not yet been presented in our literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal method of coronary revascularization in dialysis patients is controversial. The purpose of this study was to compare the long-term survival of dialysis patients in the United States after PTCA, coronary stenting, or CABG. METHODS AND RESULTS Dialysis patients hospitalized from 1995 to 1998 for first coronary revascularization procedures after renal replacement therapy initiation were identified from the US Renal Data System database. All-cause and cardiac survival was estimated by the life-table method and compared by the log-rank test. The impact of independent predictors on survival was examined in a Cox regression model. The in-hospital mortality was 8.6% for 6668 CABG patients, 6.4% for 4836 PTCA patients, and 4.1% for 4280 stent patients. The 2-year all-cause survival (mean+/-SEM) was 56.4+/-1.4% for CABG patients, 48.2+/-1.5% for PTCA patients, and 48.4+/-2.0% for stent patients (P<0.0001). After comorbidity adjustment, the relative risk (RR) for CABG (versus PTCA) patients was 0.80 (95% CI 0.76 to 0.84, P<0.0001) for all-cause death and 0.72 (95% CI 0.67 to 0.77, P<0.0001) for cardiac death. For stent (versus PTCA) patients, the RR was 0.94 (95% CI 0.88 to 0.99, P=0.03) for all-cause death and 0.92 (95% CI 0.85 to 0.99, P=0.04) for cardiac death. In diabetic (versus PTCA) patients, the RR for CABG surgery was 0.81 (95% CI 0.75 to 0.88, P<0.0001) for all-cause death and 0.71 (95% CI 0.64 to 0.78, P<0.0001) for cardiac death, and the RR for the stent procedure was 0.99 (95% CI 0.91 to 1.08, P=NS) for all-cause death and 0.99 (95% CI 0.89 to 1.11, P=NS) for cardiac death. CONCLUSIONS In this retrospective study, dialysis patients in the United States had better long-term survival after CABG surgery than after percutaneous coronary intervention. Stent outcomes were relatively worse in diabetic patients. Our data support the need for large clinical registries and prospective trials of surgical and percutaneous coronary revascularization procedures in dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for hemodialysis patients is high risk compared with other patient groups. The aim of this study was to analyze the potential benefits of off-pump CABG for hemodialysis patients. METHODS From April 1994 through December 2000, 26 hemodialysis patients underwent CABG. The off-pump group consisted of 15 patients operated on without a pump and the on-pump group consisted of 11 patients operated on with a pump. RESULTS There was no difference between the two groups with regard to mean age, mean number of diseased vessels and mean number of anastomoses per patient. No patient died in either group during hospitalization. The postoperative complication rate was low in both groups. The postoperative ventilation time was shorter in the off-pump group (8.5 vs 26.1 hours, p < 0.001, respectively [off-pump group vs on-pump group]). The length of ICU stay was shorter in the off-pump group (1.7 vs 3.5 days, p = 0.01, respectively [off-pump group vs on-pump group]). The medial cost was lower in the off-pump group (26,200.80 dollars versus 44,024.10 dollars p = 0.0001 respectively [off-pump group vs on-pump group]). CONCLUSIONS Off-pump CABG provided excellent less-invasive cardiac surgical results for dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dialysis patients are undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with increasing frequency. The long-term effect of preoperative dialysis-dependent renal failure on mortality after CABG has not been well studied. METHODS We conducted a prospective regional cohort study of 15,574 consecutive patients undergoing isolated CABG in northern New England from 1992 to 1997. Patient records were linked to the National Death Index to assess mortality. Five-year survival and adjusted hazard ratios were calculated. RESULTS During 32,589 person-years of follow-up 1298 deaths were recorded. Renal failure was present in 283 patients (1.8%), and 67.8% of patients with renal failure also had diabetes or peripheral vascular disease (PVD). The annual death rate was 3.8% for nonrenal failure patients, 16.9% for all renal failure patients, 7.7% for renal failure patients without diabetes or PVD, and 23.0% for renal failure patients with diabetes or PVD. Five-year survival was 83.5% for nonrenal failure patients, 55.8% for all renal failure patients, 78.5% for renal failure patients without diabetes or PVD, and 42.2% for renal failure patients with diabetes or PVD. After adjustment for differences in base line patient and disease characteristics, renal failure patients without diabetes or PVD had a statistically nonsignificant 57% increase rate of death compared with those without renal failure; renal failure patients with diabetes or PVD had more than a fourfold increased risk of death. CONCLUSIONS After adjustment for other risk factors, renal failure remains a highly significant predictor of decreased long-term survival in CABG patients. Patients with renal failure plus diabetes or PVD are at especially high risk of death.
