Zhang S, Chen N, Huang Z, Yan N, Ma L, Gao X. Geriatric nutritional risk index is associated with the occurrence of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients with acute heart failure. Ren Fail 2024; 46:2349122. [PMID: 38721891 PMCID: PMC11085996 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2349122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: During the acute heart failure (AHF), acute kidney injury (AKI) is highly prevalent in critically ill patients. The occurrence of the latter condition increases the risk of mortality in patients with acute heart failure. The current research on the relationship between nutritional risk and the occurrence of acute kidney injury in patients with acute heart failure is very limited. Methods: This retrospective cohort study utilized data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV, version 2.1) database. We included adult patients with AHF who were admitted to the intensive care unit in the study. Results: A total of 1310 critically ill patients with acute heart failure were included. The AUC of geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) (0.694) is slightly superior to that of controlling nutritional status (CONUT) (0.656) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) (0.669). The Log-rank test revealed a higher risk of acute kidney injury in patients with high nutritional risk (p < 0.001). Multivariate COX regression analysis indicated that a high GNRI (adjusted HR 0.62, p < 0.001) was associated with a reduced risk of AKI during hospitalization in AHF patients. The final subgroup analysis demonstrated no significant interaction of GNRI in all subgroups except for diabetes subgroup and ventilation subgroup (P for interaction: 0.057-0.785). Conclusion: Our study findings suggest a correlation between GNRI and the occurrence of acute kidney injury in patients hospitalized with acute heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in the intensive care unit (ICU). In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), epidemiological information about this condition is still scarce. Our main objective was to characterize its epidemiology, prognosis, and its treatment. METHODS This multicenter prospective cohort study included 1466 patients from 35 ICUs during 6 months in Argentina in 2018. Risk factors and outcomes in patients with and without AKI, and between AKI on admission (AKIadm) and that developed during hospitalization (AKIhosp) were analyzed. RESULTS AKI occurred in 61.3% of patients (900/1466); 72.6% were AKIadm and 27.3% AKIhosp. Risk factors were age, BMI, arterial hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, SOFA, APACHE II, dehydration, sepsis, vasopressor use, radiocontrast, diuresis/h and mechanical ventilation. Independent predictors for AKI were sepsis, diabetes, dehydration, vasopressors on admission, APACHE II and radiocontrast use. Renal replacement therapies (RRT) requirement in AKI patients was 14.8%. Hospital mortality in AKI vs. non-AKI was 38.7% and 23.3% (p < 0.001); and in AKIadm vs. AKIhosp, 41.2% and 37.8% (p = 0.53). CONCLUSIONS ICU-acquired AKI has high incidence, complications and mortality. Risk factors for AKI and RRT utilization were similar to those described in other epidemiological studies. AKIadm was more frequent than AKIhosp, but had equal prognosis.

J Ren Nutr 2023; 33:639-648. [PMID: 37302721 DOI: 10.1053/j.jrn.2023.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Malnutrition is associated with adverse outcomes in acute or chronic diseases. However, the prediction value of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) has not been well studied. METHODS Data was extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III) and the electronic intensive care unit database. We used two nutritional indicators, the GNRI and the modified Nutrition Risk in Critically ill (NUTRIC) score, to evaluate the relationship between the nutritional status of patients with AKI and prognosis. The outcome is in-hospital mortality and 90-day mortality. The prediction accuracy of GNRI was compared with the NUTRIC score. RESULTS A total of 4,575 participants with AKI were enrolled in this study. The median age of 68 (interquartile range, 56-79) years, and 1,142 (25.0%) patients experienced in-hospital mortality, and 1,238 (27.1%) patients experienced 90-day mortality. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that lower GNRI levels and high NUTRIC score are associated with lower in-hospital and 90-day survival of patients with AKI (P < .001 by log-rank test). After multivariate adjustment, Cox regression analysis demonstrated a 2-fold increased risk of in-hospital (hazard ratio = 2.019, 95% confidence interval: 1.699-2.400, P < .001) and 90-day (hazard ratio = 2.023, 95% confidence interval: 1.715-2.387, P < .001) mortality in the low GNRI group. Moreover, the multivariate-adjusted Cox model containing GNRI had higher prediction accuracy for the prognosis of patients with AKI than that with NUTRIC score (AUCGNRI model vs. AUCNUTRIC model for in-hospital mortality = 0.738 vs. 0.726, AUCGNRI model vs. AUCNUTRIC model for 90-day mortality = 0.748 vs. 0.726). In addition, the prediction value of GNRI was validated by the electronic intensive care unit database (7,881 patients with AKI) with satisfying performance (AUCGNRI model = 0.680). CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated that GNRI is strongly associated with survival in patients in the intensive care unit coexisting with AKI, and the GNRI has a superior predictive value than the NUTRIC score.

Interleukin-18 and Gelsolin Are Associated with Acute Kidney Disease after Cardiac Catheterization. Biomolecules 2023; 13:biom13030487. [PMID: 36979422 PMCID: PMC10046301 DOI: 10.3390/biom13030487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients undergoing cardiac catheterization are at high risk of post-procedure acute kidney injury (AKI) and may experience persistent renal damage after an initial insult, a state known as acute kidney disease (AKD). However, the association between AKD and urinary renal biomarkers has not yet been evaluated in this population. We enrolled 94 patients who underwent elective cardiac catheterization to investigate patterns of urinary renal biomarkers and their associations with post-procedure AKD. Serial urinary renal biomarker levels were measured during pre-procedure, early post-procedure (12–24 h), and late post-procedure (7–10 days) periods. In our investigation, 42.55% of the enrolled patients developed AKD during the late post-procedure period. While the liver-type free-fatty-acid-binding protein level increased sharply during the early post-procedure period, it returned to baseline during the late post-procedure period. In contrast, interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels increased steadily during the post-procedure period. Early post-procedure ratios of IL-18 and gelsolin (GSN) were independently associated with subsequent AKD (odds ratio (95% confidence interval), 4.742 (1.523–14.759) for IL-18 ratio, p = 0.007; 1.812 (1.027–3.198) for GSN ratio, p = 0.040). In conclusion, post-procedure AKD is common and associated with early changes in urinary IL-18 and GSN in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization.

Abstract
This study aims to provide pooled estimates for the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in overweight, obese, and normal body mass index (BMI) patients, and to assess impact of BMI on mortality and chronic kidney disease (CKD) rates. We conducted literature search using online databases to analyze outcomes of BMI. This meta-analysis included 22 studies. Compared to normal BMI, underweight, overweight, or obese patients had higher risk of having AKI. Underweight individuals had 17% lower CKD risk (relative risk [RR]: 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.75, 0.90) while patients that were overweight (RR: 1.15, 95% CI: 1.08, 1.22) and obese (RR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.10, 1.33) had higher risk of having CKD. Lower than normal BMI was associated with higher mortality risk (RR: 1.58, 95% CI: 1.35, 1.85), while being overweight or obese correlated with the decreased risk of mortality. An increased risk of AKI combined with an increased risk of mortality calls for renal protective strategies in subjects who are underweight at the time of hospital admission.

Impact of BMI on outcomes in respiratory ECMO: an ELSO registry study. Intensive Care Med 2023; 49:37-49. [PMID: 36416896 PMCID: PMC9684759 DOI: 10.1007/s00134-022-06926-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The impact of body mass index (BMI) on outcomes in respiratory failure necessitating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been poorly described. We aimed to assess: (i) whether adults with class II obesity or more (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2) have worse outcomes than lean counterparts, (ii) the form of the relationship between BMI and outcomes, (iii) whether a cutoff marking futility can be identified. METHODS A retrospective analysis of the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) Registry from 1/1/2010 to 31/12/2020 was conducted. Impact of BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 was assessed with propensity-score (PS) matching, inverse propensity-score weighted (IPSW) and multivariable models (MV), adjusting for a priori identified confounders. Primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. The form of the relationship between BMI and outcomes was studied with generalized additive models. Outcomes across World Health Organisation (WHO)-defined BMI categories were compared. RESULTS Among 18,529 patients, BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 was consistently associated with reduced in-hospital mortality [PS-matched: OR: 0.878(95%CI 0.798-0.966), p = 0.008; IPSW: OR: 0.899(95%CI 0.827-0.979), p = 0.014; MV: OR: 0.900(95%CI 0.834-0.971), p = 0.007] and shorter hospital length of stays. In patients with BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2, cardiovascular (17.3% versus 15.3%), renal (37% versus 30%) and device-related complications (25.7% versus 20.6%) increased, whereas pulmonary complications decreased (7.6% versus 9.3%). These findings were independent of confounders throughout PS-matched, IPSW and MV models. The relationship between BMI and outcomes was non-linear and no cutoff for futility was identified. CONCLUSION Patients with obesity class II or more treated with ECMO for respiratory failure have lower mortality risk and shorter stays, despite increased cardiovascular, device-related, and renal complications. No upper limit of BMI indicating futility of ECMO treatment could be identified. BMI as single parameter should not be a contra-indication for respiratory ECMO.

Front Pharmacol 2022; 12:781379. [PMID: 34992535 PMCID: PMC8724779 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.781379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Accepted: 12/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: To compare the effects of empagliflozin and linagliptin use on kidney outcomes of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in a real-world setting. Methods: The study involved a propensity score-matched cohort comprising new users of empagliflozin or linagliptin with T2DM between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2018 from a large healthcare delivery system in Taiwan. Clinical outcomes assessed: acute kidney injury (AKI), post-AKI dialysis, and mortality. Cox proportional hazard model was used to estimate the relative risk of empagliflozin or linagliptin use; a linear mixed model was used to compare the average change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over time. Results: Of the 7,042 individuals, 67 of 3,521 (1.9%) in the empagliflozin group and 144 of 3,521 (4.1%) in the linagliptin group developed AKI during the 2 years follow-up. Patients in the empagliflozin group were at a 40% lower risk of developing AKI compared to those in the linagliptin group (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.45-0.82, p = 0.001). Stratified analysis showed that empagliflozin users ≥65 years of age (aHR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.43-1.13, p = 0.148), or with a baseline eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (aHR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.57-1.65, p = 0.899), or with a baseline glycohemoglobin ≦7% (aHR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.51-2.00, p =0.973) experienced attenuated benefits with respect to AKI risk. A smaller decline in eGFR was observed in empagliflozin users compared to linagliptin users regardless of AKI occurrence (adjusted β = 1.51; 95% CI, 0.30-2.72 ml/min/1.73 m2, p = 0.014). Conclusion: Empagliflozin users were at a lower risk of developing AKI and exhibited a smaller eGFR decline than linagliptin users. Thus, empagliflozin may be a safer alternative to linagliptin for T2DM patients.
